New interaction solutions to the KdV equation

In this Letter, a few new types of interaction solutions to the KdV equation are obtained through a constructed Wronskian form expansion method. The method takes advantage of the forms and structures of Wronskian solutions to the KdV equation, and the functions used in the Wronskian determinants don't satisfy the systems of linear partial differential equations.     

Form factors and correlation functions of an interacting spinless fermion model

Introducing the fermionic R-operator and solutions of the inverse scattering problem for local fermion operators, we derive a multiple integral representation for zero-temperature correlation functions of a one-dimensional interacting spinless fermion model. Correlation functions particularly considered are the one-particle Green's function and the density–density correlation function both for any interaction strength and for arbitrary particle densities. In particular for the free fermion model, our formulae reproduce the known exact results. Form factors of local fermion operators are also calculated for a finite system.     

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.

New doubly periodic wave solutions are obtained and displayed graphically by proper selections of the arbitrary 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.     

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.

Soliton-like solutions of certain types of nonlinear diffusion-reaction equations with variable coefficient

With a view to exploring new soliton-like solutions of certain types of nonlinear diffusion-reaction (DR) equations with a variable coefficient, we demonstrate the viability of a method which is the combination of both the symbolic computation technique of Gao and Tian [Y.T. Gao, B. Tian, Comput. Phys. Commun. 133 (2001) 158] and auxiliary equation method of Sirendaoreji [Sirendaoreji, Phys. Lett. A 356 (2006) 124] and used recently for the KdV equation. In particular, the DR equations with quadratic and cubic nonlinearities with a time-dependent velocity in the convective flux term are studied and the existence of soliton-like solutions is shown.

These noncontinuous solitary wave solutions are verified by using the conservation law theory.     

Variable-coefficient extended mapping method for nonlinear evolution equations

In this Letter, a variable-coefficient extended mapping method is proposed to seek new and more general exact solutions of nonlinear evolution equations. Being concise and straightforward, this method is applied to the mKdV equation with variable coefficients and (2+1)-dimensional Nizhnik-Novikov-Veselov equations. As a result, many new and more general exact solutions are obtained including Jacobi elliptic function solutions, hyperbolic function solutions and trigonometric function solutions. It is shown that the proposed method provides a very effective and powerful mathematical tool for solving a great many nonlinear evolution equations in mathematical physics.

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.     

Two-component description of dynamical systems that can be approximated by solitons: The case of the ion acoustic wave equations of plasma physics

A new approach to the perturbative analysis of dynamical systems, which can be described approximately by soliton solutions of integrable non-linear wave equations, is employed in the case of small-amplitude solutions of the ion acoustic wave equations of plasma physics. Instead of pursuing the traditional derivation of a perturbed KdV equation, the ion velocity is written as a sum of two components: elastic and inelastic. In the single-soliton case, the elastic component is the full solution. In the multiple-soliton case, it is complemented by the inelastic component. The original system is transformed into two evolution equations: An asymptotically integrable Normal Form for ordinary KdV solitons, and an equation for the inelastic component. The zero-order term of the elastic component is a single-soliton or multiple-soliton solution of the Normal Form. The inelastic component asymptotes into a linear combination of single-soliton solutions of the Normal Form, with amplitudes determined by soliton interactions, plus a second-order decaying dispersive wave. Satisfaction of a conservation law by the inelastic component and of mass conservation by the disturbance to the ion density is determined solely by the initial data and/or boundary conditions imposed on the inelastic component. The electrostatic potential is a first-order quantity. It is affected by the inelastic component only in second order. The charge density displays a triple-layer structure. The analysis is carried out through the third order.

Exact solutions of semiclassical non-characteristic Cauchy problems for the sine-Gordon equation

The use of the sine-Gordon equation as a model of magnetic flux propagation in Josephson junctions motivates studying the initial-value problem for this equation in the semiclassical limit in which the dispersion parameter ε tends to zero. Assuming natural initial data having the profile of a moving −2π kink at time zero, we analytically calculate the scattering data of this completely integrable Cauchy problem for all ε>0 sufficiently small, and further we invert the scattering transform to calculate the solution for a sequence of arbitrarily small ε. This sequence of exact solutions is analogous to that of the well-known N-soliton (or higher-order soliton) solutions of the focusing nonlinear Schrödinger equation. We then use plots obtained from a careful numerical implementation of the inverse-scattering algorithm for reflectionless potentials to study the asymptotic behavior of solutions in the semiclassical limit. In the limit ε↓0 one observes the appearance of nonlinear caustics, i.e. curves in space-time that are independent of ε but vary with the initial data and that separate regions in which the solution is expected to have different numbers of nonlinear phases.In the appendices, we give a self-contained account of the Cauchy problem from the perspectives of both inverse scattering and classical analysis (Picard iteration). Specifically, Appendix A contains a complete formulation of the inverse-scattering method for generic L¹-Sobolev initial data, and Appendix B establishes the well-posedness for L^p-Sobolev initial data (which in particular completely justifies the inverse-scattering analysis in Appendix A).     

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.

Deltons, peakons and other traveling-wave solutions of a Camassa-Holm hierarchy

In this letter, we study an integrable Camassa-Holm hierarchy whose high-frequency limit is the Camassa-Holm equation. Phase plane analysis is employed to investigate bounded traveling wave solutions. An important feature is that there exists a singular line on the phase plane. By considering the properties of the equilibrium points and the relative position of the singular line, we find that there are in total three types of phase planes. Those paths in phase planes which represented bounded solutions are discussed one-by-one. Besides solitary, peaked and periodic waves, the equations are shown to admit a new type of traveling waves, which concentrate all their energy in one point, and we name them deltons as they can be expressed as some constant multiplied by a delta function. There also exists a type of traveling waves we name periodic deltons, which concentrate their energy in periodic points. The explicit expressions for them and all the other traveling waves are given.     

Bose-Einstein solitons in time-dependent linear potential

In this paper, Bose-Einstein soliton solutions of the nonlinear Schrödinger equation with time-dependent linear potential are considered. Based on the F-expansion method, we present a number of Jacobian elliptic function solutions. Particular cases of these solutions, where the elliptic function modulus equals 1 and 0, are various localized solutions and trigonometric functions, respectively. Specially, for V_ext = ZF(T) = Z[mg + Hcos (ω₁T)], we discussed the Bose-Einstein condensate trapped in the coupling external field with considering the effect of gravity; for F(T) = constant, it describes the wave (Langmuir or electromagnetic) in a linearly inhomogeneous plasma with cubic nonlinearly.
