Invariant Sets and Exact Solutions to Nonlinear Diffusion Equations with x-Dependent Convection and Absorption

In this paper, we introduce a new invariant set Eo={u：ux=f＇（x）F（u）＋ε[g＇（x）-f＇（x）g（x）]F（u）×exp（-∫^u1/F（z）dz）}where f and g are some smooth functions of x, ε is a constant, and F is a smooth function to be determined. The invariant sets and exact sohltions to nonlinear diffusion equation ut = （ D（u）ux）x ＋ Q（x, u）ux ＋ P（x, u）, are discussed. It is shown that there exist several classes of solutions to the equation that belong to the invariant set Eo.     

Exact Soliton Solutions to a Generalized Nonlinear Schrodinger Equation

The （1＋1）-dimensional F-expansion technique and the homogeneous nonlinear balance principle have been generalized and applied for solving exact solutions to a general （3＋1）-dimensional nonlinear Schr6dinger equation （NLSE） with varying coefficients and a harmonica potential. We found that there exist two kinds of soliton solutions. The evolution features of exact solutions have been numerically studied. The （3＋1）D soliton solutions may help us to understand the nonlinear wave propagation in the nonlinear media such as classical optical waves and the matter waves of the Bose-Einstein condensates.

Novel exact solutions of coupled nonlinear Schrōdinger equations with time-space modulation

We construct various novel exact solutions of two coupled dynamical nonlinear Schrōdinger equations. Based on the similarity transformation, we reduce the coupled nonlinear Schrōdinger equations with time-and space-dependent potentials, nonlinearities, and gain or loss to the coupled dynamical nonlinear Schrrdinger equations. Some special types of non-travelling wave solutions, such as periodic, resonant, and quasiperiodically oscillating solitons, are used to exhibit the wave propagations by choosing some arbitrary functions. Our results show that the number of the localized wave of one component is always twice that of the other one. In addition, the stability analysis of the solutions is discussed numerically.

Synchronization in Oscillator Networks with Nonlinear Coupling

Synchronization in coupled oscillator networks has attracted much attention from many fields of science and engineering. In this paper, it is firstly proved that the oscifiator network with nonlinear coupling is also eventually dissipative under the hypothesis of eventual dissipation of the uncoupled oscillators. And the dynamics of the network is analyzed in its absorbing domain by combining two methods developed recently. Suufficient conditions for synchronization in the oscillator networks with nonlinear coupling are obtained. The two methods are combined effectively and the results embody the respective merits of the two methods. Numerical simulations confirm the validity of the results.

Nonlinear Landau damping of high frequency waves in non-Maxwellian plasmas

Space plasmas often possess non-Maxwellian distribution functions which have a significant effect on the plasma waves.When a laser or electron beam passes through a dense plasma,hot low density electron populations can be generated to alter the wave damping/growth rate.In this paper,we present theoretical analysis of the nonlinear Landau damping for Langmuir waves in a plasma where two electron populations are found.The results show a marked difference between the Maxwellian and non-Maxwellian instantaneous damping rates when we employ a non-Maxwellian distribution function called the generalized(r,q)distribution function,which is the generalized form of the kappa and Maxwellian distribution functions.In the limiting case of r=0 and q→∞,it reduces to the classical Maxwellian distribution function,and when r=0 and q→κ+1,it reduces to the kappa distribution function.

Two concepts named atom solution and combinatory solution are defined. The classification of all single traveling wave atom solutions to sinh-Gordon equation is obtained, and qualitative properties of solutions are discussed. In particular, we point out that some qualitative properties derived intuitively from dynamic system method are not true. Finally, we prove that our solutions to sinh-Gordon equation include all solutions obtained in the paper [Z.T. Fu, et al., Commun. Theor. Phys. （Beijing, China） 45 （2006） 55]. Through an example, we show how to give some new identities on Jacobian elliptic functions.     

Symmetry, Reductions and New Exact Solutions of ANNV Equation Through Lax Pair

In this paper, the direct symmetry method is extended to the Lax pair of the ANNV equation. As a result, symmetries of the Lax pair and the ANNV equation are obtained at the same time. Applying the obtained symmetry, the （2＋1）-dimensional Lax pair is reduced to （1＋1）-dimensional Lax pair, whose compatibility yields the reduction of the ANNV equation. Based on the obtained reductions of the ANNV equation, a lot of new exact solutions for the ANNV equation are found. This shows that for an integrable system, both the symmetry and the reductions can be obtained through its corresponding Lax pair.

Massive String Cosmology in Bianchi Type ⅢSpace-Time with Electromagnetic Field

Exact solution of Einstein＇s field equations is obtained for massive string cosmological model of Bianchi III space-time using the technique given by Letelier （1983） in presence of perfect fluid and electromagnetic field. To get the deterministic solution of the field equations the expansion 0 in the model is considered as proportional to the eigen value σ2^2of the shear tensor σi^j and also the fluid obeys the barotropic equation of state. It is observed that in early stage of the evolution of the universe string dominates over the particle whereas the universe is dominated by massive string at the late time. It is also observed that the string phase of the universe disappears in our model because particle density becomes negative. Some physical and geometric properties of the model are also discussed.
