On Gaussian decay estimates of solutions to some linear elliptic equations and their applications

In this paper we establish pointwise decay estimates of solutions to some linear elliptic equations by using the Nash–Moser iteration arguments and the ODE method. As applications we obtain sharp Gaussian decay estimates for solutions to nonlinear elliptic equations that are related with self-similar solutions to nonlinear heat equations and standing wave solutions to nonlinear Schrödinger equations with harmonic potential.     

Extended Jacobin elliptic function method and its applications

An extended Jacobin elliptic function method is presented for constructing exact travelling wave solutions of nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs) in a unified way. The main idea of this method is to take full advantage of the elliptic equation that Jacobin elliptic functions satisfy and use its solutions to replace Jacobin elliptic functions in Jacobin elliptic function method. It is interesting that many other methods are special cases of our method. Some illustrative equations are investigated by this means.     

Unique Continuation Property and Local Asymptotics of Solutions to Fractional Elliptic Equations

Asymptotics of solutions to fractional elliptic equations with Hardy type potentials is studied in this paper. By using an Almgren type monotonicity formula, separation of variables, and blow-up arguments, we describe the exact behavior near the singularity of solutions to linear and semilinear fractional elliptic equations with a homogeneous singular potential related to the fractional Hardy inequality. As a consequence we obtain unique continuation properties for fractional elliptic equations.     

Liouville-type theorems and decay estimates for solutions to higher order elliptic equations

Liouville-type theorems are powerful tools in partial differential equations. Boundedness assumptions of solutions are often imposed in deriving such Liouville-type theorems. In this paper, we establish some Liouville-type theorems without the boundedness assumption of nonnegative solutions to certain classes of elliptic equations and systems. Using a rescaling technique and doubling lemma developed recently in Polá?ik et al. (2007) [20], we improve several Liouville-type theorems in higher order elliptic equations, some semilinear equations and elliptic systems. More specifically, we remove the boundedness assumption of the solutions which is required in the proofs of the corresponding Liouville-type theorems in the recent literature. Moreover, we also investigate the singularity and decay estimates of higher order elliptic equations.     

Exact solutions of coupled nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation

In this paper, we employ the general integral method for traveling wave solutions of coupled nonlinear Klein-Gordon equations. Based on the idea of the exact Jacobi elliptic function, a simple and efficient method is proposed for obtaining exact solutions of nonlinear evolution equations. The solutions obtained include solitons, periodic solutions and Jacobi elliptic function solutions.     

Rational Jacobi elliptic solutions for nonlinear differential–difference lattice equations

In this work, we present a direct new method for constructing the rational Jacobi elliptic solutions for nonlinear differential–difference equations, which may be called the rational Jacobi elliptic function method. We use the rational Jacobi elliptic function method to construct many new exact solutions for some nonlinear differential–difference equations in mathematical physics via the lattice equation. The proposed method is more effective and powerful for obtaining the exact solutions for nonlinear differential–difference equations.

In this paper we prove the existence of positive solutions to some nondivergent elliptic equations with indefinite nonlinear boundary conditions. The proof is based on a new Liouville-type theorem about the nonnegative solutions to some canonical indefinite elliptic equations, which is also proved in this paper by the method of moving planes.

We consider positive solutions of elliptic partial differential equations on non-compact domains of Riemannian manifolds.

The extended Jacobi elliptic function method to solve a generalized Hirota–Satsuma coupled KdV equations

In this paper, we extend the Jacobi elliptic function rational expansion method by using a new generalized ansätz. With the help of symbolic computation, we construct more new explicit exact solutions of nonlinear evolution equations (NLEEs). We apply this method to a generalized Hirota–Satsuma coupled KdV equations and gain more general solutions. The general solutions not only contain the solutions by the existing Jacobi elliptic function expansion methods but also contain many new solutions. When the modulus of the Jacobi elliptic functions m → 1 or 0, the corresponding solitary wave solutions and triangular functional (singly periodic) solutions are also obtained.     

Schauder estimates for elliptic operators with applications to nodal sets

Many exact solutions in terms of Jacobi elliptic functions are obtained.     

BLOW-UP SOLUTIONS FOR A CASE OF b-FAMILY EQUATIONS

In this article, we study the blow-up solutions for a case of b-family equations.Using the qualitative theory of differential equations and the bifurcation method of dynamical systems, we obtain five types of blow-up solutions: the hyperbolic blow-up solution, the fractional blow-up solution, the trigonometric blow-up solution, the first elliptic blow-up solution, and the second elliptic blow-up solution. Not only are the expressions of these blow-up solutions given, but also their relationships are discovered. In particular, it is found that two bounded solitary solutions are bifurcated from an elliptic blow-up solution.

We use the complex method, namely first discuss the corresponding problem for degenerate elliptic complex equations of first order, afterwards discuss the above problem for degenerate elliptic equations of second order.     

Variable-coefficient Jacobi elliptic function expansion method for (2+1)-dimensional Nizhnik-Novikov-Vesselov equations

In this paper, a variable-coefficient Jacobi elliptic function expansion method is proposed to seek more general exact solutions of nonlinear partial differential equations. Being concise and straightforward, this method is applied to the (2+1)-dimensional Nizhnik-Novikov-Vesselov equations. As a result, many new and more general exact non-travelling wave and coefficient function solutions are obtained including Jacobi elliptic function solutions, soliton-like solutions and trigonometric function solutions. To give more physical insights to the obtained solutions, we present graphically their representative structures by setting the arbitrary functions in the solutions as specific functions.
