Hurst exponents for interacting random walkers obeying nonlinear Fokker-Planck equations

Anomalous diffusion of random walks has been extensively studied for the case of non-interacting particles. Here we study the evolution of nonlinear partial differential equations by interpreting them as Fokker-Planck equations arising from interactions among random walkers. We extend the formalism of generalized Hurst exponents to the study of nonlinear evolution equations and apply it to several illustrative examples. They include an analytically solvable case of a nonlinear diffusion constant and three nonlinear equations which are not analytically solvable: the usual Fisher equation which contains a quadratic nonlinearity, a generalization of the Fisher equation with density-dependent diffusion constant, and the Nagumo equation which incorporates a cubic rather than a quadratic nonlinearity. We estimate the generalized Hurst exponents.

Solitary pulses in linearly coupled Ginzburg-Landau equations

This article presents a brief review of dynamical models based on systems of linearly coupled complex Ginzburg-Landau (CGL) equations. In the simplest case, the system features linear gain, cubic nonlinearity (possibly combined with cubic loss), and group-velocity dispersion (GVD) in one equation, while the other equation is linear, featuring only intrinsic linear loss. The system models a dual-core fiber laser, with a parallel-coupled active core and an additional stabilizing passive (lossy) one. The model gives rise to exact analytical solutions for stationary solitary pulses (SPs). The article presents basic results concerning stability of the SPs; interactions between pulses are also considered, as are dark solitons (holes). In the case of the anomalous GVD, an unstable stationary SP may transform itself, via the Hopf bifurcation, into a stable localized breather. Various generalizations of the basic system are briefly reviewed too, including a model with quadratic (second-harmonic-generating) nonlinearity and a recently introduced model of a different but related type, based on linearly coupled CGL equations with cubic-quintic nonlinearity. The latter system features spontaneous symmetry breaking of stationary SPs, and also the formation of stable breathers.     

Modified Kudryashov method via new exact solutions for some conformable fractional differential equations arising in mathematical biology

In this study, the modified Kudryashov method is used to construct new exact solutions for some conformable fractional differential equations. By implementing the conformable fractional derivative and compatible fractional complex transforms, the fractional generalized reaction duffing (RD) model equation, the fractional biological population model and the fractional diffusion reaction (DR) equation with quadratic and cubic nonlinearity are discussed. As an outcome, some new exact solutions are formally established. All solutions have been verified back into its corresponding equation with the aid of maple package program. We assure that the employed method is simple and robust for the estimation of the new exact solutions, and practically capable for reducing the size of computational work for solving a various class of fractional differential equations arising in applied mathematics, mathematical physics and biology.     

Video solitons in a dispersive transmission line with the nonlinear capacitance of a p-n junction

Possible types of low-frequency electromagnetic solitary waves in a dispersive LC transmission line with a quadratic or cubic capacitive nonlinearity are investigated. The fourth-order nonlinear wave equation with ohmic losses is derived from the differential-difference equations of the discrete line in the continuum approximation. For a zero-loss line, this equation can be reduced to the nonlinear equation for a transmission line, the double dispersion equation, the Boussinesq equations, the Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation, and the modified KdV equation. Solitary waves in a transmission line with dispersion and dissipation are considered.     

Scale and space localization in the Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equation

We describe a wavelet-based approach to the investigation of spatiotemporally complex dynamics, and show through extensive numerical studies that the dynamics of the Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equation in the spatiotemporally chaotic regime may be understood in terms of localized dynamics in both space and scale (wave number). A projection onto a spline wavelet basis enables good separation of scales, each with characteristic dynamics. At the large scales, one observes essentially slow Gaussian dynamics; at the active scales, structured "events" reminiscent of traveling waves and heteroclinic cycles appear to dominate; while the strongly damped small scales display intermittent behavior. The separation of scales and their dynamics is invariant as the length of the system increases, providing additional support for the extensivity of the spatiotemporally complex dynamics claimed in earlier works. We show also that the dynamics are spatially localized, discuss various correlation lengths, and demonstrate the existence of a characteristic interaction length for instantaneous influences. Our results motivate and advance the search for localized, low-dimensional models that capture the full behavior of spatially extended chaotic partial differential equations.

Analysis of chaotic saddles in high-dimensional dynamical systems: the Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equation

This paper presents a methodology to study the role played by nonattracting chaotic sets called chaotic saddles in chaotic transitions of high-dimensional dynamical systems. Our methodology is applied to the Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equation, a reaction-diffusion partial differential equation. The paper describes a novel technique that uses the stable manifold of a chaotic saddle to characterize the homoclinic tangency responsible for an interior crisis, a chaotic transition that results in the enlargement of a chaotic attractor. The numerical techniques explained here are important to improve the understanding of the connection between low-dimensional chaotic systems and spatiotemporal systems which exhibit temporal chaos and spatial coherence.     

Cubic nonlinearity in shear wave beams with different polarizations

A coupled pair of nonlinear parabolic equations is derived for the two components of the particle motion perpendicular to the axis of a shear wave beam in an isotropic elastic medium. The equations account for both quadratic and cubic nonlinearity. The present paper investigates, analytically and numerically, effects of cubic nonlinearity in shear wave beams for several polarizations: linear, elliptical, circular, and azimuthal. Comparisons are made with effects of quadratic nonlinearity in compressional wave beams.     

Nonlinear equations for quasi-monochromatic waves near a caustic in a dispersive dissipative medium with cubic or quadratic nonlinearity

The behavior of a quasi-monochromatic nonlinear wave near a caustic is considered. Nonlinear ordinary differential equations for a dispersive dissipative medium with a cubic or quadratic nonlinearity are derived. For the latter medium, nonstationary equations describing it near the caustic are presented with allowance for the dissipative dispersive terms. These equations yield ordinary ones for quasi-monochromatic waves. The amplitude of the second harmonic is expressed in terms of the squared amplitude of the first harmonic. The amplitude of the second harmonic, as well as the solution as a whole, increases near the caustic.     

Partial differential equations possessing Frobenius integrable decompositions

Frobenius integrable decompositions are introduced for partial differential equations. A procedure is provided for determining a class of partial differential equations of polynomial type, which possess specified Frobenius integrable decompositions. Two concrete examples with logarithmic derivative Bäcklund transformations are given, and the presented partial differential equations are transformed into Frobenius integrable ordinary differential equations with cubic nonlinearity. The resulting solutions are illustrated to describe the solution phenomena shared with the KdV and potential KdV equations.     

Multiple singular manifold method and extended direct method: Application to the burgers equation

This paper considers the relationship between the multiple singular manifold method (MSMM) and the extended direct method (EDM) for studying partial differential equations. It is shown that the similarity reductions using EDM can be obtained by MSMM. The prototype example for illustrating the approach is the Burgers equation, which is the simplest evolution equation to embody nonlinearity and dissipation. As a conclusion of the MSMM, we obtain a set of Bäcklund transformations of the Burgers equation.     

Energy spreading,equipartition, and chaos in lattices with non-central forces

We numerically study a one-dimensional,nonlinear lattice model which in the linear limit is relevant to the study of bending(flexural)waves.In contrast with the classic one-dimensional mass-spring system,the linear dispersion relation of the considered model has different characteristics in the low frequency limit.By introducing disorder in the masses of the lattice particles,we investigate how different nonlinearities in the potential(cubic,quadratic,and their combination)lead to energy delocalization,equipartition,and chaotic dynamics.We excite the lattice using single site initial momentum excitations corresponding to a strongly localized linear mode and increase the initial energy of excitation.Beyond a certain energy threshold,when the cubic nonlinearity is present,the system is found to reach energy equipartition and total delocalization.On the other hand,when only the quartic nonlinearity is activated,the system remains localized and away from equipartition at least for the energies and evolution times considered here.However,for large enough energies for all types of nonlinearities we observe chaos.This chaotic behavior is combined with energy delocalization when cubic nonlinearities are present,while the appearance of only quadratic nonlinearity leads to energy localization.Our results reveal a rich dynamical behavior and show differences with the relevant Fermi–Pasta–Ulam–Tsingou model.Our findings pave the way for the study of models relevant to bending(flexural)waves in the presence of nonlinearity and disorder,anticipating different energy transport behaviors.

INVARIANT LINEARIZATION CRITERIA FOR SYSTEMS OF CUBICALLY NONLINEAR SECOND-ORDER ORDINARY DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS

Invariant linearization criteria for square systems of second-order quadratically nonlinear ordinary differential equations (ODEs) that can be represented as geodesic equations are extended to square systems of ODEs cubically nonlinear in the first derivatives. It is shown that there are two branches for the linearization problem via point transformations for an arbitrary system of second-order ODEs and its reduction to the simplest system. One is when the system is at most cubic in the first derivatives. One obtains the equivalent of the Lie conditions for such systems. We explicitly solve this branch of the linearization problem by point transformations in the case of a square system of two second-order ODEs. Necessary and sufficient conditions for linearization to the simplest system by means of point transformations are given in terms of coefficient functions of the system of two second-order ODEs cubically nonlinear in the first derivatives. A consequence of our geometric approach of projection is a rederivation of Lie's linearization conditions for a single second-order ODE and sheds light on more recent results for them. In particular we show here how one can construct point transformations for reduction to the simplest linear equation by going to the higher space and just utilizing the coefficients of the original ODE. We also obtain invariant criteria for the reduction of a linear square system to the simplest system. Moreover these results contain the quadratic case as a special case. Examples are given to illustrate our results.     

Effect of the interaction of spatial modes on the nonlinear dynamics of sound beams

Propagation of an acoustic beam in a medium with a combined second-and third-order nonlinearity is studied. The derivation of the dynamics equations and the determination of modes is performed using the orthogonal-projection operator technique. The problem on the beam evolution considered with allowance for weak nonlinearity, diffraction, and dissipation leads to a set of equations describing the interaction of directed waves and a quasi-stationary (thermal) mode. In the conditions of a directed beam, the inclusion of the interaction leads to a modified Khokhlov-Zabolotskaya-Kuznetsov equation with quadratic and cubic nonlinearities. The solutions to the problem are obtained in the region near the beam axis, in the form of series expansions in the transverse coordinate up to the focal point. The results of calculations are represented in graphical form for different nonlinearity combinations.     

The generalized KaupߝBoussinesq equation: multiple soliton solutions

In this work, we investigate the generalized two-field Kaup–Boussinesq (KB) equation. The KB equation possesses the cubic nonlinearity that distinguishes it from the Boussinesq equation that contains quadratic nonlinearity. We use the simplified form of Hirota’s direct method to determine multiple soliton solutions and multiple singular soliton solutions for this equation. The study exhibits physical structures for a generalized water–wave model.     

Nonmarkovian dynamics of stochastic differential equations with quadratic noise

We consider a stochastic differential equation with a quadratic nonlinearity in the noise. We derive equations for the steady state probability density and joint probability distribution valid beyond a markovian approximation. We do not assume that the strength of the random term is small. The equations are derived for the case of an Ornstein-Uhlenbeck noise and also for a dichotomic noise. A comparison is made. We discuss some examples for which correlation functions and the associated relaxation times are calculated.
