Solitons for a generalized variable-coefficient nonlinear Schrdinger equation

In this paper,we investigate some exact soliton solutions for a generalized variable-coefficients nonlinear Schrdinger equation (NLS) with an arbitrary time-dependent linear potential which describes the dynamics of soliton solutions in quasi-one-dimensional Bose-Einstein condensations. Under some reasonable assumptions,one-soliton and two-soliton solutions are constructed analytically by the Hirota method. From our results,some previous one-and two-soliton solutions for some NLS-type equations can be recovered by some appropriate selection of the various parameters. Some figures are given to demonstrate some properties of the one-and the two-soliton and the discussion about the integrability property and the Hirota method is given finally.

Approximate analytic solutions for a generalized Hirota—Satsuma coupled KdV equation and a coupled mKdV equation

<正>This paper applies the variational iteration method to obtain approximate analytic solutions of a generalized Hirota-Satsuma coupled Korteweg-de Vries(KdV) equation and a coupled modified Korteweg-de Vries(mKdV) equation. This method provides a sequence of functions which converges to the exact solution of the problem and is based on the use of the Lagrange multiplier for the identification of optimal values of parameters in a functional.Some examples are given to demonstrate the reliability and convenience of the method and comparisons are made with the exact solutions.     

Solitons in a generalized space- and time-variable coefficients nonlinear Schrödinger equation with higher-order terms

We introduce an approach that combines a similarity method with several transformations to find analytical solitary wave solutions for a generalized space- and time-variable coefficients of nonlinear Schrödinger equation with higher-order terms with consideration of varying dispersion, higher nonlinearities, gain/loss and external potential. One of these transformations is constructed in such a way that allows study of the width of localized solutions. Solitary-like wave solutions for front, bright and dark are given. The precise expressions of the soliton?s width, peak, and the trajectory of its mass center and the external potential which are symbol of dynamic behavior of these solutions, are investigated analytically. In addition, the dynamical behavior of moving, periodic, quasi-periodic of breathing, and resonant are discussed. Stability of the obtained solutions is analyzed both analytically and numerically.     

A meshless method for the nonlinear generalized regularized long wave equation

This paper presents a meshless method for the nonlinear generalized regularized long wave(GRLW) equation based on the moving least-squares approximation.The nonlinear discrete scheme of the GRLW equation is obtained and is solved using the iteration method.A theorem on the convergence of the iterative process is presented and proved using theorems of the infinity norm.Compared with numerical methods based on mesh,the meshless method for the GRLW equation only requires the scattered nodes instead of meshing the domain of the problem.Some examples,such as the propagation of single soliton and the interaction of two solitary waves,are given to show the effectiveness of the meshless method.     

Solitons and periodic waves for a generalized (3+1)-dimensional Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation in fluid dynamics and plasma physics

Under investigation in this paper is a generalized (3+1)-dimensional Kadomtsev–Petviashvili equation in fluid dynamics and plasma physics. Soliton and one-periodic-wave solutions are obtained via the Hirota bilinear method and Hirota–Riemann method. Magnitude and velocity of the one soliton are derived. Graphs are presented to discuss the solitons and one-periodic waves: the coefficients in the equation can determine the velocity components of the one soliton, but cannot alter the soliton magnitude; the interaction between the two solitons is elastic; the coefficients in the equation can influence the periods and velocities of the periodic waves. Relation between the one-soliton solution and one-periodic wave solution is investigated.     

Multi-soliton solutions and a Bäcklund transformation for a generalized variable-coefficient higher-order nonlinear Schrödinger equation with symbolic computation

In this paper, by virtue of symbolic computation, the investigation is made on a generalized variable-coefficient higher-order nonlinear Schrödinger equation with varying higher-order effects and gain or loss, which can describe the femtosecond optical pulse propagation in a monomode dielectric waveguide. A modified dependent variable transformation is introduced into the bilinear method to transform such an equation into a variable-coefficient bilinear form. Based on the formal parameter expansion technique, the multi-soliton solutions of this equation are obtained through the bilinear form under sets of parametric constraints. A Bäcklund transformation in bilinear form is also obtained for the first time in this paper. Finally, discussions on the analytic soliton solutions are given and various propagation situations are illustrated.

Solitons and other solutions of the nonlinear fractional Zoomeron equation

In order to investigate the nonlinear fractional Zoomeron equation, we propose three methods, namely the Jacobi elliptic function rational expansion method, the exponential rational function method and the new Jacobi elliptic function expansion method. Many kinds of solutions are obtained and the existence of these solutions is determined. For some parameters, these solutions can degenerate to the envelope shock wave solutions and the envelope solitary wave solutions. A comparison of our new results with the well-known results is made. The methods used here can also be applicable to other nonlinear partial differential equations. The fractional derivatives in this work are described in the modified Riemann–Liouville sense.     

Excitations of nonlinear local waves described by the sinh-Gordon equation with a variable coefficient

We explore novel excitations in the form of nonlinear local waves, which are described by the sinh-Gordon (SHG) equation with a variable coefficient. With the aid of the self-similarity transformation, we establish the relationship between solutions of the SHG equation with a variable coefficient and those of the standard SHG equation. Then, using the Hirota bilinear method, we obtain a more general bilinear form for the standard SHG equation and find new one- and two-soliton waves whose forms involve two arbitrary self-similarity functions. By an appropriate choice of the smooth self-similarity functions, we determine and display novel localized waves, and discuss their properties. The method used here can be extended to the three- and higher order soliton solutions.
