Be careful with the Exp-function method – Additional remarks

It is shown that the solution produced by the Exp-function method may not hold for all initial conditions. Riccati and Maccari nonlinear differential equations are used to illustrate that fact. Conditions of existence for the produced solution in the space of initial conditions and in the space of system’s parameters are derived using the operator method based on the generalized operator of differentiation. The concept of the expansion of an ordinary differential equation is introduced and it is shown that the algebraic–analytical solution of Maccari equation can be produced by solving Riccati equation.

On the numerical solution of Korteweg-de Vries equation by the iterative splitting method

In this paper, we apply the method of iterative operator splitting on the Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation. The method is based on first, splitting the complex problem into simpler sub-problems. Then each sub-equation is combined with iterative schemes and solved with suitable integrators. Von Neumann analysis is performed to achieve stability criteria for the proposed method applied to the KdV equation. The numerical results obtained by iterative splitting method for various initial conditions are compared with the exact solutions. It is seen that they are in a good agreement with each other.     

Generalized solitary waves in a finite‐difference Korteweg‐de Vries equation

Generalized solitary waves with exponentially small nondecaying far field oscillations have been studied in a range of singularly perturbed differential equations, including higher order Korteweg‐de Vries (KdV) equations. Many of these studies used exponential asymptotics to compute the behavior of the oscillations, revealing that they appear in the solution as special curves known as Stokes lines are crossed. Recent studies have identified similar behavior in solutions to difference equations. Motivated by these studies, the seventh‐order KdV and a hierarchy of higher order KdV equations are investigated, identifying conditions which produce generalized solitary wave solutions. These results form a foundation for the study of infinite‐order differential equations, which are used as a model for studying lattice equations. Finally, a lattice KdV equation is generated using finite‐difference discretization, in which a lattice generalized solitary wave solution is found.     

Solitary wave solution of the generalized Hirota–Satsuma coupled KdV system

In this research, we find the exact traveling wave solutions involving parameters of the generalized Hirota–Satsuma couple KdV system according to the modified simple equation method with the aid of Maple 16. When these parameters are taken special values, the solitary wave solutions are derived from the exact traveling wave solutions. It is shown that the modified simple equation method provides an effective and a more powerful mathematical tool for solving nonlinear evolution equations in mathematical physics. Comparison between our results and the well-known results will be presented.

As a result, multiple soliton solutions and other soliton and periodic solutions are guaranteed and formally derived.     

Chaos, solitons and fractals in (2 + 1)-dimensional KdV system derived from a periodic wave solution

With the help of an extended mapping method and a linear variable separation method, new types of variable separation solutions (including solitary wave solutions, periodic wave solutions and rational function solutions) with two arbitrary functions for (2 + 1)-dimensional Korteweg–de Vries system (KdV) are derived. Usually, in terms of solitary wave solutions and rational function solutions, one can find some important localized excitations. However, based on the derived periodic wave solution in this paper, we find that some novel and significant localized coherent excitations such as dromions, peakons, stochastic fractal patterns, regular fractal patterns, chaotic line soliton patterns as well as chaotic patterns exist in the KdV system as considering appropriate boundary conditions and/or initial qualifications.
