An Approach for Solving Short-Wave Models for Camassa-Holm Equation and Degasperis-Procesi Equation

In this paper, to construct exact solution of nonlinear partial differential equation, an easy-to-use approach is proposed. By means of the transformation of the independent variables and the travelling wave transformation, the partial differential equation is reduced to an ordinary differential equation. To solve the ordinary differential equation, we assume the soliton solution in the explicit expression and obtain the travelling wave solution. By the transformation back to the original independent variables, the soliton solution of the original partial differential equation is derived. We investigate the short wave model for the Camassa-Holm equation and the Degasperis-Procesi equation respectively. One-cusp soliton solution of the Camassa-Holm equation is obtained. One-loop soliton solution of the Degasperis-Procesi equation is also obtained, the approximation of which in a closed form can be obtained firstly by the Adomian decomposition method. The obtained results in a parametric form coincide perfectly with those given in the present reference. This illustrates the efficiency and reliability of our approach.

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.

By choosing different forms of wave functions as the initial values, three new types of realistic numerical solutions： numerical positon, negaton solution, and particularly the numerical analytical complexiton solution are obtained, which can rapidly converge to the exact ones obtained by Lou et al. Numerical simulation figures are used to illustrate the efficiency and accuracy of the proposed method.     

A Note on ＂Doubly Periodic Propagating Wave for （2＋1）-Dimensional Breaking Soliton Equation＂

In a recent paper [Commun. Theor. Phys. （Beijing, China） 49 （2008） 268], Huang et al. gave a general variable separation solution to the （2＋1）-dimensional breaking soliton equation via a special Biicldund transformation and the variable separation approach. In terms of the derived variable separation solution and by introducing Jacobi elliptic functions, they claimed that nonelastic types of interaction between Jacobi elliptic function waves are investigated both analytically and graphically. We show that some inappropriateness or errors exist in their paper, and say nothing of the conclusion that some nonelastic types of interaction between Jacobi elliptic function waves in the （2＋1）-dimensional breaking soliton equation have been found.     

Gap solitons in parity time complex superlattice with dual periods

A theory is presented to investigate the existence and propagation stability of gap solitons in a parity-time （PT） com- plex superlattice with dual periods. In this superlattice, the real and imaginary parts are both in the form of superlattices with dual periods. In the self-focusing nonlinearity, PT solitons can exist in the semi-infinite gap. However, only those gap solitons with low powers can propagate stably, whereas the high-power solitons present periodic oscillation and simultane- ously suffer energy decay. In the self-defocusing nonlinearity, PT solitons only exist in the first gap and all these solitons are stable.

A Higher-Dimensional Hirota Condition and Its Judging Method

When a one-dimensional nonlinear evolution equation could be transformed into a bilinear differential form as F（Dt, Dx）f . f = O, Hirota proposed a condition for the above evolution equation to have arbitrary N-soliton solutions, we call it the 1-dimensional Hirota condition. As far as higher-dimensional nonlinear evolution equations go, a similar condition is established in this paper, also we call it a higher-dimensional Hirota condition, a corresponding judging theory is given. As its applications, a few two-dimensional KdV-type equations possessing arbitrary N-soliton solutions are obtained.

B~cklund transformation in the bilinear form is presented, through which a new solution is constructed. Graphically, we have found that the solitons are symmetric about x = O, while the soliton pulse width and amplitude will change along with the distance and time during the propagation.

The numerical results demonstrate that ADM-Pade technique give the approximate solution with faster convergence rate and higher accuracy and relative in larger domain of convergence than using ADM.     

Induced Lie Algebras of a Six-Dimensional Matrix Lie Algebra

By using a six-dimensional matrix Lie algebra [Y.F. Zhang and Y. Wang, Phys. Lett. A 360 （2006） 92], three induced Lie algebras are constructed. One of them is obtained by extending Lie bracket, the others are higher-dimensional complex Lie algebras constructed by using linear transformations. The equivalent Lie algebras of the later two with multi-component forms are obtained as well. As their applications, we derive an integrable coupling and quasi-Hamiltonian structure of the modified TC hierarchy of soliton equations.

Symmetry Reduction and Exact Solutions of the （3＋1）-Dimensional Breaking Soliton Equation

By means of the generalized direct method, a relationship is constructed between the new solutions and the old ones of the （3＋1）-dimensional breaking soliton equation. Based on the relationship, a new solution is obtained by using a given solution of the equation. The symmetry is also obtained for the （3＋1）-dimensional breaking soliton equation. By using the equivalent vector of the symmetry, we construct a seven-dimensional symmetry algebra and get the optimal system of group-invariant solutions. To every case of the optimal system, the （3＋1）-dimensional breaking soliton equation is reduced and some solutions to the reduced equations are obtained. Furthermore, some new explicit solutions are found for the （3＋ 1）-dimensional breaking soliton equation.

We study an intense beam propagating through the double periodic focusing channel by the particle-core model, and obtain the beam envelope equation. According to the Poincare-Lyapunov theorem, we analyze the stability of beam envelope equation and find the beam halo. The soliton control method for controlling the beam halo-chaos is put forward based on mechanism of halo formation and strategy of controlling beam halo-chaos, and we also prove the validity of the control method, and furthermore, the feasible experimental project is given. We perform multiparticle simulation to control the halo by using the soliton controller. It is shown that our control method is effective. We also find the radial ion density changes when the ion beam is in the channel, not only the halo-chaos and its regeneration can be eliminated by using the nonlinear control method, but also the density uniformity can be found at beam＇s centre as long as an appropriate control method is chosen.

Analytic Approximations for Soliton Solutions of Short-Wave Models for Camassa-Holm and Degasperis-Procesi Equations

In this paper, the short-wave model equations are investigated, which are associated with the Camassa- Holm （CH） and Degasperis Procesi （DP） shallow-water wave equations. Firstly, by means of the transformation of the independent variables and the travelling wave transformation, the partial differential equation is reduced to an ordinary differential equation. Secondly, the equation is solved by homotopy analysis method. Lastly, by the transformatioas back to the original independent variables, the solution of the original partial differential equation is obtained. The two types of solutions of the short-wave models are obtained in parametric form, one is one-cusp soliton for the CH equation while the other one is one-loop soliton for the DP equation. The approximate analytic solutions expressed by a series of exponential functions agree well with the exact solutions. It demonstrates the validity and great potential of homotopy analysis method for complicated nonlinear solitary wave problems.
