A blow-up theorem for a discrete semilinear wave equation

In this paper, a discretization of a semilinear wave equation whose nonlinear term is a power function is investigated. It is shown that, when a condition on the initial value problem, similar to that governing the existence of blow-up solutions for the original continuous equation is met, the newly introduced difference equation has blow-up solutions with characteristics corresponding to those of the blow-up solutions for the original equation.     

New soliton solutions for a Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (KP) like equation coupled to a Schrödinger equation

The repeated homogeneous balance is used to construct a new exact traveling wave solution of the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (KP) like equation coupled to a Schrödinger equation, in which the homogeneous balance method is applied to solve the Riccati equation and the reduced nonlinear ordinary differential equation, respectively. Many new exact traveling wave solutions are successfully obtained, which contain rational and periodic-like solutions. This method is straightforward and concise, and it can be applied to other nonlinear evolution equations.

An effective characterization is given for a class of generalized nonlinear diffusion equations with power law dependent terms. Further, a new auxiliary equation ansatz is derived. Consequently, new exact traveling wave trigonometric function, solitary-like and Weierstrass elliptic solutions to a subclass are obtained by means of an auxiliary equation method and a generalized Riccati equation expansion method.     

Inverse coefficient problem for a wave equation in a bounded domain

The nonlinear inverse problem for a wave equation is investigated in a three-dimensional bounded domain subject to the Dirichlet boundary condition. Given a family of solutions to the equation defined on a closed surface within the original domain, it is required to reconstruct the coefficient determining the velocity of sound in the medium. The solutions used for this purpose correspond to the acoustic medium perturbations localized in the neighborhood of a certain closed surface. The inverse problem is reduced to a linear integral equation of the first kind, and the uniqueness of the solution to this equation is established. Numerical results are presented.

As a result, many exact traveling wave solutions are successfully obtained. The method in the paper is very direct and it can also be applied to other nonlinear evolution equations.     

A search for lump solutions to a combined fourth-order nonlinear PDE in (2+1)-dimensions

We aim to explore new (2+1)-dimensional nonlinear equations which possess lump solutions. Through the Hirota bilinear method, we formulate a combined fourth-order nonlinear equation while guaranteeing the existence of lump solutions. The class of lump solutions is constructed explicitly in terms of the coefficients of the combined nonlinear equation via symbolic computations. Specific examples are discussed to show the richness of the considered combined nonlinear equation. Three dimensional plots and contour plots of specific lump solutions to two specially chosen cases of the equation are made to shed light on the presented lump solutions.

Nonautonomous first integrals and general solutions of the KdV‐Burgers and mKdV‐Burgers equations with the source

The method for constructing first integrals and general solutions of nonlinear ordinary differential equations is presented. The method is based on index accounting of the Fuchs indices, which appeared during the Painlevé test of a nonlinear differential equation. The Fuchs indices indicate us the leading members of the first integrals for the origin differential equation. Taking into account the values of the Fuchs indices, we can construct the auxiliary equation, which allows to look for the first integrals of nonlinear differential equations. The method is used to obtain the first integrals and general solutions of the KdV‐Burgers and the mKdV‐Burgers equations with a source. The nonautonomous first integrals in the polynomials form are found. The general solutions of these nonlinear differential equations under at some additional conditions on the parameters of differential equations are also obtained. Illustrations of some solutions of the KdV‐Burgers and the mKdV‐Burgers are given.     

Single and multi-solitary wave solutions to a class of nonlinear evolution equations

In this paper, an effective discrimination algorithm is presented to deal with equations arising from physical problems. The aim of the algorithm is to discriminate and derive the single traveling wave solutions of a large class of nonlinear evolution equations. Many examples are given to illustrate the algorithm. At the same time, some factorization technique are presented to construct the traveling wave solutions of nonlinear evolution equations, such as Camassa-Holm equation, Kolmogorov-Petrovskii-Piskunov equation, and so on. Then a direct constructive method called multi-auxiliary equations expansion method is described to derive the multi-solitary wave solutions of nonlinear evolution equations. Finally, a class of novel multi-solitary wave solutions of the (2+1)-dimensional asymmetric version of the Nizhnik-Novikov-Veselov equation are given by three direct methods. The algorithm proposed in this paper can be steadily applied to some other nonlinear problems.     

Generalization of the simplest equation method for nonlinear non-autonomous differential equations

It is known that the simplest equation method is applied for finding exact solutions of autonomous nonlinear differential equations. In this paper we extend this method for finding exact solutions of non-autonomous nonlinear differential equations (DEs). We applied the generalized approach to look for exact special solutions of three Painlevé equations. As ODE of lower order than Painlevé equations the Riccati equation is taken. The obtained exact special solutions are expressed in terms of the special functions defined by linear ODEs of the second order.

On a nonlinear elliptic problem with critical potential in R~2

Consider the existence of nontrivial solutions of homogeneous Dirichlet problem for a nonlinear elliptic equation with the critical potential in R2. By establishing a weighted inequality with the best constant, determine the critical potential in R2, and study the eigenvalues of Laplace equation with the critical potential. By the Pohozaev identity of a solution with a singular point and the Cauchy-Kovalevskaya theorem, obtain the nonexis tence result of solutions with singular points to the nonlinear elliptic equation. Moreover, for the same problem, the existence results of multiple solutions are proved by the mountain pass theorem.     

Exact solutions of Kolmogorov-Petrovskii-Piskunov equation using the modified simple equation method

The modified simple equation method is employed to find the exact solutions of the nonlinear Kolmogorov-Petrovskii-Piskunov （KPP） equation. When certain parameters of the equations are chosen to be special values, the solitary wave solutions are derived from the exact solutions. It is shown that the modified simple equation method provides an effective and powerful mathematical tool for solving nonlinear evolution equations in mathematical physics.

Some Exact Solutions of Two Fifth Order KdV-type Nonlinear Partial Differential Equations

We consider the generalized integrable fifth order nonlinear Korteweg-de Vries (fKdV) equation. The extended Tanh method has been used rigorously, by computational program MAPLE, for solving this fifth order nonlinear partial differential equation. The general solutions of the fKdV equation are formed considering an ansatz of the solution in terms of tanh. Then, in particular, some exact solutions are found for the two fifth order KdV-type equations given by the Caudrey-Dodd-Gibbon equation and the another fifth order equation. The obtained solutions include solitary wave solution for both the two equations.

On a boundary value problem for a p‐Dirac equation

The p‐Laplace equation is a nonlinear generalization of the Laplace equation. This generalization is often used as a model problem for special types of nonlinearities. The p‐Laplace equation can be seen as a bridge between very general nonlinear equations and the linear Laplace equation. The aim of this paper is to solve the p‐Laplace equation for 1 < p < 2 and to find strong solutions. The idea is to apply a hypercomplex integral operator and spatial function theoretic methods to transform the p‐Laplace equation into the p‐Dirac equation. This equation will be solved iteratively by using a fixed‐point theorem. Applying operator‐theoretical methods for the p‐Dirac equation and p‐Laplace equation, the existence and uniqueness of solutions in certain Sobolev spaces will be proved.
