Exact travelling wave solutions for the dissipative (2 + 1)-dimensional AKNS equation

This paper employs the theory of planar dynamical systems and undetermined coefficient method to study travelling wave solutions of the dissipative (2 + 1)-dimensional AKNS equation. By qualitative analysis, global phase portraits of the dynamic system corresponding to the equation are obtained under different parameter conditions. Furthermore, the relations between the properties of travelling wave solutions and the dissipation coefficient r of the equation are investigated. In addition, the possible bell profile solitary wave solution, kink profile solitary wave solutions and approximate damped oscillatory solutions of the equation are obtained by using undetermined coefficient method. Error estimates indicate that the approximate solutions are meaningful. Based on above studies, a main contribution in this paper is to reveal the dissipation effect on travelling wave solutions of the dissipative (2 + 1)-dimensional AKNS equation.

Exact coherent structures in the (2 + 1)-dimensional KdV equations

Different from the (1 + 1)-dimensional nonlinear systems, (2 + 1) or higher dimensional nonlinear systems admit more rich coherent structures. Taking (2 + 1)-dimensional Korteweg de Vries (KdV for short) equations as an example, the singular manifold method is applied to search these coherent structures in an analytical form. With the aid of symbolic computation and plot representation of Maple, some coherent structures expressed in terms of new forms, such as dromions and solitoffs, have been illustrated by means of arbitrary functions in the analytical forms. In the paper, we will show these results by changing some specific choices for three different special cases for singular variable in details.

Soliton solutions for (2 + 1)-dimensional and (3 + 1)-dimensional K(m, n) equations

We consider the nonlinear dispersive K(m,n) equation with the generalized evolution term and derive analytical expressions for some conserved quantities. By using a solitary wave ansatz in the form of sech^p function, we obtain exact bright soliton solutions for (2 + 1)-dimensional and (3 + 1)-dimensional K(m,n) equations with the generalized evolution terms. The results are then generalized to multi-dimensional K(m,n) equations in the presence of the generalized evolution term. An extended form of the K(m,n) equation with perturbation term is investigated. Exact bright soliton solution for the proposed K(m,n) equation having higher-order nonlinear term is determined. The physical parameters in the soliton solutions are obtained as function of the dependent model coefficients.

Special exact solutions of the K(2, 2) equation, u_t + (u²)_x + (u²)_xxx = 0, are investigated by employing the qualitative theory of differential equations. Our procedure shows that the K(2, 2) equation either has loop soliton, cusped soliton and smooth soliton solutions when sitting on the non-zero constant pedestal lim_x→±∞u = A ≠ 0, or possesses compacton solutions only when lim_x→±∞u = 0. Mathematical analysis and numerical simulations are provided for these soliton solutions of the K(2, 2) equation.

Eigenvector-free solutions to AX = B with PX = XP and X = sX constraints

The matrix equation AX = B with PX = XP and X^H = sX constraints is considered, where P is a given Hermitian involutory matrix and s = ±1. By an eigenvalue decomposition of P, we equivalently transform the constrained problem to two well-known constrained problems and represent the solutions in terms of the eigenvectors of P. Using Moore-Penrose generalized inverses of the products generated by matrices A, B and P, the involved eigenvectors can be released and eigenvector-free formulas of the general solutions are presented. Similar strategy is applied to the equations AX = B, XC = D with the same constraints.     

Exact solutions of nonlinear dispersive K(m, n) model with variable coefficients

The variable-coefficient Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation with additional terms contributed from the inhomogeneity in the axial direction and the strong transverse confinement of the condense was presented to describe the dynamics of nonlinear excitations in trapped quasi-one-dimensional Bose-Einstein condensates with repulsive atom-atom interactions. To understand the role of nonlinear dispersion in this variable-coefficient model, we introduce and study a new variable-coefficient KdV with nonlinear dispersion (called vc-K(m, n) equation). With the aid of symbolic computation, we obtain its compacton-like solutions and solitary pattern-like solutions. Moreover, we also present some conservation laws for both vc-K⁺(n, n) equation and vc-K⁻(n, n) equation.
