Some new solitary and travelling wave solutions of certain nonlinear diffusion-reaction equations using auxiliary equation method

Attempts are made to look for the soliton content in the exact solutions of certain types of nonlinear diffusion-reaction (DR) equations with the quadratic and cubic nonlinearities. Such equations may arise in a variety of contexts in physical problems. In this Letter using the auxiliary equation method, some new solitary and travelling wave solutions of such nonlinear DR equations are obtained in a very general form. Several interesting special cases of these general solutions are also discussed.

In this Letter, the Exp-function method is generalized to construct N-soliton solutions of a KdV equation with variable coefficients. As a result, 1-soliton, 2-soliton and 3-soliton solutions are obtained, from which the uniform formula of N-soliton solutions is derived. It is shown that the Exp-function method may provide us with a straightforward and effective mathematical tool for generating N-soliton solutions of nonlinear evolution equations in mathematical physics.

Chirped and chirpfree soliton solutions of generalized nonlinear Schrödinger equation with distributed coefficients

Using the F-expansion method, we systematically present exact solutions of the generalized nonlinear nonlinear Schrödinger equation with varying intermodal dispersion and nonlinear gain or loss. This approach allows us to obtain large variety of solutions in terms of Jacobi-elliptical and Weierstrass-elliptical functions. The chirped and unchirped spatiotemporal soliton solutions and trigonometric-function solutions have been also obtained as limiting cases. The dynamics of these spatiotemporal soliton is discussed in context of optical fiber communication. To visualize the propagation characteristics of chirp and unchirped dark-bright soliton solutions, few numerical simulations are given. It is found that wave profile of solitons depend on the group velocity dispersion and the gain or loss functions.

A simple and direct method for generating travelling wave solutions for nonlinear equations

We propose a simple and direct method for generating travelling wave solutions for nonlinear integrable equations. We illustrate how nontrivial solutions for the KdV, the mKdV and the Boussinesq equations can be obtained from simple solutions of linear equations. We describe how using this method, a soliton solution of the KdV equation can yield soliton solutions for the mKdV as well as the Boussinesq equations. Similarly, starting with cnoidal solutions of the KdV equation, we can obtain the corresponding solutions for the mKdV as well as the Boussinesq equations. Simple solutions of linear equations can also lead to cnoidal solutions of nonlinear systems. Finally, we propose and solve some new families of KdV equations and show how soliton solutions are also obtained for the higher order equations of the KdV hierarchy using this method.

Painlevé analysis and exact solutions of the resonant Davey-Stewartson system

It is shown that the resonant Davey-Stewartson (RDS) system can pass the Painlev test. By truncating the Laurent series to a constant level term, a dependent variable transformation is naturally derived, which leads to the bilinear forms of the RDS system. From the bilinear equations, through making suitable assumptions, some new soliton solutions are obtained. Some representative profiles of the solitary waves are graphically displayed including the two-line soliton solution, “Y” soliton solution, “V” soliton solution, solitoff, etc. The solutions might be useful to describe the nonlinear phenomena in Madelung fluids, capillarity fluids, and so on.

Novel homoclinic and heteroclinic solutions for the 2D complex cubic Ginzburg-Landau equation

Homoclinic and heteroclinic solutions are two important concepts that are used to investigate the complex properties of nonlinear evolutionary equations. In this Letter, we perform hyperbolic and linear stability analysis, and prove the existence of homoclinic and heteroclinic solutions for two-dimensional cubic Ginzburg-Landau equation with periodic boundary condition and even constraint. Then, using the Hirota's bilinear transformation, we find the closed-form homoclinic and heteroclinic solutions. Moreover, we find that the homoclinic tubes and two families of heteroclinic solutions are asymptotic to a periodic cycle in one dimension.     

Integrability of a general Gross-Pitaevskii equation and exact solitonic solutions of a Bose-Einstein condensate in a periodic potential

We consider a general form of the Gross-Pitaevskii equation with time- and space-dependent effective mass, external potential and strength of interatomic interaction. Using the inverse-scattering method, we derive the integrability condition of this equation within a general scheme that can be used to find exact solutions of a wide range of linear and nonlinear partial differential equations. We use this condition to derive exact solitonic solutions of the one-dimensional time-dependent Gross-Pitaevskii equation corresponding to a Bose-Einstein condensate trapped by a periodic potential. Both attractive and repulsive interatomic interactions are considered. The values of the parameters of the potential can be chosen such that the periodic potential becomes almost identical to that of an optical lattice.

By considering a discrete iso-spectral problem, a hierarchy of bi-Hamiltonian relativistic Toda type lattice equations are revisited. After introducing a semi-direct sum Lie algebras of four by four matrices, integrable coupling system associated with the relativistic Toda type lattice are derived. It is shown that the resulting lattice soliton hierarchy possesses Hamiltonian structures and infinitely many common commuting symmetries as well infinitely many conserved functions. The Liouville integrability of the resulting system is then demonstrated.
