A Pair of Zakharov Equations with Collisional Damping and the Motion of Langmuir Soliton

The effects of collisional damping on high frequency Langmuir wave and low frequency ion-acoustic wave have been investigated. It is found that the governing equations for the waves are a pair of Zakharov equations with a damping term in each equation. By using the treatment which consists of approximate solutions of the balance equations, a set of first order ordinary differential equations have been derived for the solution parameters in order to study the motion of Zakharov solitons in presence of damping. It has been shown that the width of the soliton remains constant throughout the motion.     

Double-wave solutions and Lie symmetry analysis to the (2 + 1)-dimensional coupled Burgers equations

This paper investigates the (2 + 1)-dimensional coupled Burgers equations (CBEs) which is an important nonlinear physical model. In this respect, by making use of the generalized unified method (GUM), a series of double-wave solutions of the (2 + 1)-dimensional coupled Burgers equations are derived. The Lie symmetry technique (LST) is also utilized for the symmetry reductions of the (2 + 1)-dimensional coupled Burgers equations and extracting a non-traveling wave solution. Through some figures, we discussed the wave structures of the double-wave solutions of the CBEs for different values of parameters in these solutions.     

Approximate solutions for half-dark solitons in spinor non-equilibrium Polariton condensates

In this work I generalize and apply an analytical approximation to analyze 1D states of non-equilibrium spinor polariton Bose–Einstein condensates (BEC). Solutions for the condensate wave functions carrying black solitons and half-dark solitons are presented. The derivation is based on the non-conservative Lagrangian formalism for complex Ginzburg–Landau type equations (cGLE), which provides ordinary differential equations for the parameters of the dark soliton solutions in their dynamic environment. Explicit expressions for the stationary dark soliton solution are stated. Subsequently the method is extended to spin sensitive polariton condensates, which yields ordinary differential equations for the parameters of half-dark solitons. Finally a stationary case with explicit expressions for half-dark solitons is presented.

Compact envelope dark solitary wave in a discrete nonlinear electrical transmission line

We introduce an extended nonlinear Schrödinger (ENLS) equation describing the dynamics of modulated waves in a nonlinear discrete electrical transmission line (NLTL) with nonlinear dispersion. We show that this equation admits envelope dark solitary wave with compact support, with width and speed independent of the amplitude, as a solution. Analytical criteria of existence and stability of this solution are derived. In particular, we show that the modulated compact wave may exist in the NLTL depending on the frequency range of the chosen carrier wave, for physically realistic parameters. The stability of compact dark solitary wave is confirmed by numerical simulations of this ENLS equation and the exact equations of the network.     

Infinite series symmetry reduction solutions to the modified KdV--Burgers equation

From the point of view of approximate symmetry, the modified Korteweg--de Vries--Burgers (mKdV--Burgers) equation with weak dissipation is investigated. The symmetry of a system of the corresponding partial differential equations which approximate the perturbed mKdV--Burgers equation is constructed and the corresponding general approximate symmetry reduction is derived; thereby infinite series solutions and general formulae can be obtained. The obtained result shows that the zero-order similarity solution to the mKdV--Burgers equation satisfies the Painlevé II equation. Also, at the level of travelling wave reduction, the general solution formulae are given for any travelling wave solution of an unperturbed mKdV equation. As an illustrative example, when the zero-order tanh profile solution is chosen as an initial approximate solution, physically approximate similarity solutions are obtained recursively under the appropriate choice of parameters occurring during computation.     

Colliding Plane Waves in Einstein–Maxwell Theory

Recently, a simple solution of the vacuum Einstein–Maxwell field equations was given describing a plane electromagnetic shock wave sharing its wave front with a plane gravitational impulse wave. We present here an exact solution of the vacuum Einstein–Maxwell field equations describing the head-on collision of such a wave with a plane gravitational impulse wave. The solution has the Penrose–Khan solution and a solution obtained by Griffiths as separate limiting cases.     

Resonant interaction of the Langmuir wave with quasi-stationary plasma electrons

Evolution of the Langmuir wave in quasi-stationary plasma is considered. A consistent solution to the closed system of the Vlasov–Poisson equations is obtained in the adiabatic approximation. Dispersion of the wave evolving in the electron distribution tail with variable electron concentration or plasma temperature is described. It is established that the plasma oscillation energy increases with decreasing electron concentration or increasing temperature. After plasma regains its initial state, the wave parameters also restore their initial values. That is, the wave evolution in the quasi-stationary plasma is a completely reversible process.

The (<Emphasis Type="Italic">G′/G</Emphasis>)-expansion method for a discrete nonlinear Schrödinger equation

An improved algorithm is devised for using the (G′/G)-expansion method to solve nonlinear differential-difference equations. With the aid of symbolic computation, we choose a discrete nonlinear Schrödinger equation to illustrate the validity and advantages of the improved algorithm. As a result, hyperbolic function solutions, trigonometric function solutions and rational solutions with parameters are obtained, from which some special solutions including the known solitary wave solution are derived by setting the parameters as appropriate values. It is shown that the improved algorithm is effective and can be used for many other nonlinear differential-difference equations in mathematical physics.     

Multiple (<Emphasis Type="Italic">G</Emphasis>′/<Emphasis Type="Italic">G</Emphasis>)-expansion method and its applications to nonlinear evolution equations in mathematical physics

In this paper, an extended multiple (G′/G)-expansion method is proposed to seek exact solutions of nonlinear evolution equations. The validity and advantages of the proposed method is illustrated by its applications to the Sharma–Tasso–Olver equation, the sixth-order Ramani equation, the generalized shallow water wave equation, the Caudrey–Dodd–Gibbon–Sawada–Kotera equation, the sixth-order Boussinesq equation and the Hirota–Satsuma equations. As a result, various complexiton solutions consisting of hyperbolic functions, trigonometric functions, rational functions and their mixture with parameters are obtained. When some parameters are taken as special values, the known double solitary-like wave solutions are derived from the double hyperbolic function solution. In addition, this method can also be used to deal with some high-dimensional and variable coefficients’ nonlinear evolution equations.     

A solution of the Coulomb three-body problem

In this work, a final state wave function is constructed which represents a solution of the three-body Schr?dinger equation. The formulated wave function is superimposed of one basic analytical function with various parameters. The coefficients of these basic functions involved in final state wave function can be easily calculated from a set of linear equations. The coefficients depend only on incident energy of the system. The process can also be prolonged for application to the problems more than three bodies.     

Analysis of anisotropy of numerical wave solutions by high accuracy finite difference methods

Fourier analysis is used to quantitatively assess the resolution, and in particular the isotropy of wave solution using finite difference spatial discretization schemes along with fourth order Runge–Kutta temporal scheme. Aspect ratio of the grid in two-dimension, along with the angle of wave propagation are the parameters varied to qualitatively and quantitatively assess the anisotropy of the solutions for (a) a skewed one-dimensional wave convecting in two-dimensions following the standard convection equation and (b) a wave propagating following the two-dimensional linearized rotating shallow water equations. Results show the effect of changing the aspect ratio and the propagation angle on the directional nature of the solution as obtained by different methods for the above non-dispersive and dispersive wave system.     

Supernonlinear ion-acoustic waves in a dusty plasma

An exact solution is obtained for the equations that describe nonlinear ion-acoustic waves in a dusty plasma. It is shown that the solution can be in the form of nonlinear periodic waves, solitons, and supernonlinear waves whose trajectories envelope one or several separatrices in the phase portrait of the wave. Profiles of physical quantities in the wave are constructed. The supernonlinear waves are shown to be of two types, subsonic (type 1) and supersonic (type 2). Existence regions of supernonlinear waves of both types and solitons are constructed in the plane of the problem parameters.     

Free vibration of circular footing on elastic foundations

The free vibration of a circular plate on an elastic foundation is analyzed by using Vlasov's two-parameter model. The natural frequencies of the system under axisymmetric conditions are determined. In the region of the plate, the general solution is represented by Bessel functions. Modified wave equations are used to predict the harmonic motion of the elastic foundation. Since the region outside of the plate is infinite, a reflected wave is not produced, thereby eliminating the need to consider a wave moving toward the plate. Finally, the effects of various parameters of the plate and the foundation on the natural frequencies system are discussed.

It is shown that the method introduced in this paper has general significance in searching for exact solutions to the nonlinear evolution equations.     

Transformation of Nanosecond Laser Pulses under the Conditions of Total Internal Reflection from a Layer with Thermal Nonlinearity

The nonlinear, total internal reflection of a laser pulse from an absorbing layer of finite thickness in the presence of a retrodirective mirror has been considered in the framework of the plane-wave approximation. The dynamics of reflection of a pulse from a nonlinear layer has been investigated on the basis of the solution of Maxwell equations for a refracted wave and constitutive equations for a medium with thermal nonlinearity. The numerical solution of the unsteady equations obtained allows one to determine the evolution of the reflectance of a layer. The time evolution of the energy parameters and the shape of the reflected and transmitted pulses has been numerically simulated.
