Wronskian Form Solutions for a Variable Coefficient Kadomtsev–Petviashvili Equation

Starting from a simple transformation, and with the aid of symbolic computation, we establish the relation- ship between the solution of a generalized variable coefficient Kadomtsev-Petviashvili （vKP） equation and the solution of a system of linear partial differential equations. According to this relation, we obtain Wronskian form solutions of the vKP equation, and further present N-soliton-like solutions for some degenerated forms of the vKP equation. Moreover, we also discuss the influences of arbitrary constants on the soliton and N-soliton solutions of the KPII equation.     

Large Time Asymptotics for the Kadomtsev–Petviashvili Equation

We study the large time asymptotic behavior of solutions to the Kadomtsev–Petviashvili equations $$\left\{\begin{array}{ll} u_{t} + u_{xxx} + \sigma \partial_{x}^{-1}u_{yy} = -\partial_{x}u^{2}, \quad \quad (x, y) \in {\bf R}^{2}, t \in {\bf R},\\ u(0, x, y) = u_{0}( x, y), \, \quad \quad \qquad \qquad (x, y) \in {\bf R}^{2},\end{array}\right.$$ where σ = ±1 and \({\partial_{x}^{-1} = \int_{-\infty}^{x}dx^{\prime} }\) . We prove that the large time asymptotics of the derivative u _x of the solution has a quasilinear character.

The Lax–Kadomtsev–Petviashvili equation is derived from the Lax fifth order equation, which is an important mathematical model in fluid physics and quantum field theory. Symmetry reductions of the Lax–Kadomtsev–Petviashvili equation are studied by the means of the Clarkson–Kruskal direct method and the corresponding reduction equations are solved directly with arbitrary constants and functions.     

Integrability of two coupled Kadomtsev–Petviashvili equations

The integrability of two coupled KP equations is studied. The simplified Hereman form of Hirota’s bilinear method is used to examine the integrability of each coupled equation. Multiple-soliton solutions and multiple singular soliton solutions are formally derived for each coupled KdV equation.

Asymptotics for Large Time of Global Solutions to the Generalized Kadomtsev–Petviashvili Equation

We study the large time asymptotic behavior of solutions to the generalized Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (KP) equations $ \left\{\alignedat2 &u_t + u_{xxx} + \sigma\partial_x^{-1}u_{yy}= - (u^{\rho})_x, &;&;\qquad (t,x,y) \in {\bold R}\times {\bold R}^2,\\ \vspace{.5\jot} &u(0,x,y) = u_0 (x,y),&;&; \qquad (x,y) \in{\bold R}^2, \endalignedat \right. \TAG KP $ \left\{\alignedat2 &u_t + u_{xxx} + \sigma\partial_x^{-1}u_{yy}= - (u^{\rho})_x, &;&;\qquad (t,x,y) \in {\bold R}\times {\bold R}^2,\\ \vspace{.5\jot} &u(0,x,y) = u_0 (x,y),&;&; \qquad (x,y) \in{\bold R}^2, \endalignedat \right. \TAG KP where † = 1 or † = m 1. When „ = 2 and † = m 1, (KP) is known as the KPI equation, while „ = 2, † = + 1 corresponds to the KPII equation. The KP equation models the propagation along the x-axis of nonlinear dispersive long waves on the surface of a fluid, when the variation along the y-axis proceeds slowly [10]. The case „ = 3, † = m 1 has been found in the modeling of sound waves in antiferromagnetics [15]. We prove that if „ S 3 is an integer and the initial data are sufficiently small, then the solution u of (KP) satisfies the following estimates: ||u(t)||_￥ ￡ C (1 + |t|)^-1 (log(2+|t|))^k, ||u_x(t)||_￥ ￡ C (1 + |t|)^-1 \|u(t)\|_\infty \le C (1 + |t|)^{-1} (\log (2+|t|))^{\kappa}, \|u_x(t)\|_\infty \le C (1 + |t|)^{-1} for all t ] R, where s = 1 if „ = 3 and s = 0 if „ S 4. We also find the large time asymptotics for the solution.     

Dark Soliton Solutions of Space-Time Fractional Sharma–Tasso–Olver and Potential Kadomtsev–Petviashvili Equations

Dark soliton solutions for space-time fractional Sharma–Tasso–Olver and space-time fractional potential Kadomtsev–Petviashvili equations are determined by using the properties of modified Riemann–Liouville derivative and fractional complex transform. After reducing both equations to nonlinear ODEs with constant coefficients, the tanh ansatz is substituted into the resultant nonlinear ODEs. The coefficients of the solutions in the ansatz are calculated by algebraic computer computations. Two different solutions are obtained for the Sharma–Tasso–Olver equation as only one solution for the potential Kadomtsev–Petviashvili equation. The solution profiles are demonstrated in 3D plots in finite domains of time and space.     

Solving Kadomtsev—Petviashvili Equation via a New Decomposition and Darboux Transformation

Recently,a new decomposition of the (2 1)-dimensional Kadomtsev-Petviashvili(KP) equation to a (1 1)-dimensional Broer-Kaup (BK) equation and a (1 1)-dimensional high-order BK equation was presented by Lou and Hu.In our paper,a unified Darboux transformation for both the BK equation and high-order BK equation is derived with the help of a gauge transformation of their spectral problems.As application,new explicit soliton-like solutions with five arbitrary parameters for the BK equation,high-order BK equation and KP equation are obtained.

New interaction solutions of the Kadomtsev–Petviashvili equation

The residual symmetry relating to the truncated Painlev′e expansion of the Kadomtsev–Petviashvili(KP) equation is nonlocal, which is localized in this paper by introducing multiple new dependent variables. By using the standard Lie group approach, new symmetry reduction solutions for the KP equation are obtained based on the general form of Lie point symmetry for the prolonged system. In this way, the interaction solutions between solitons and background waves are obtained, which are hard to find by other traditional methods.

On the Discrete Spectrum of the Nonstationary Schrödinger Equation and Multipole Lumps of the Kadomtsev–Petviashvili I Equation

The discrete spectrum of the nonstationary Schr?dinger equation and localized solutions of the Kadomtsev–Petviashvili-I (KPI) equation are studied via the inverse scattering transform. It is shown that there exist infinitely many real and rationally decaying potentials which correspond to a discrete spectrum whose related eigenfunctions have multiple poles in the spectral parameter. An index or winding number is asssociated with each of these solutions. The resulting localized solutions of KPI behave as collection of individual humps with nonuniform dynamics.

Damped Kadomtsev–Petviashvili Equation for Weakly Dissipative Solitons in Dense Relativistic Degenerate Plasmas

We have investigated the properties of three-dimensional electrostatic ion solitary structures in highly dense collisional plasma composed of ultra-relativistically degenerate electrons and non-relativistic degenerate ions. In the limit of low ion-neutral collision rate, we have derived a damped Kadomtsev–Petviashvili(KP) equation using perturbation analysis. Supplemented by vanishing boundary conditions, the time varying solution of damped KP equation leads to a weakly dissipative compressive soliton. The real frequency behavior and linear damping of solitary pulse due to ion-neutral collisions is discussed. In the presence of weak transverse perturbations, soliton evolution with damping parameter and plasma density is delineated pointing out the extent of propagation using typical parameters of dense plasma in the interior of white dwarfs.

Decompositions of the Kadomtsev–Petviashvili equation and their symmetry reductions

Starting with a decomposition conjecture, we carefully explain the basic decompositions for the Kadomtsev–Petviashvili(KP) equation as well as the necessary calculation procedures, and it is shown that the KP equation allows the Burgers–STO(BSTO) decomposition, two types of reducible coupled BSTO decompositions and the BSTO–KdV decomposition. Furthermore, we concentrate ourselves on pointing out the main idea and result of B?cklund transformation of the KP equation based on a special superpositi...     

Three New Integrable Hierarchies of Equations

A general Lie algebra Vs and the corresponding loop algebra Vx are constructed, from which the linear isospectral Lax pairs are established, whose compatibility presents the zero curvature equation. As its application, a new Lax integrable hierarchy containing two parameters is worked out. It is not Liouville-integrable, however, its two reduced systems are Liouville-integrable, whose Hamiltonian structures are derived by making use of the quadratic-form identity and the γ formula （i.e. the computational formula on the constant γ appeared in the trace identity and the quadratic-form identity）.
