Some New Solitary Wave Solutions to a Compound KdV-Burgers Equation

Abstract In terms of the solutions of an auxiliary ordinary differential equation, a new algebraic method, which contains the terms of first-order derivative of functions f （ξ）, is constructed to explore the new solitary wave solutions for nonlinear evolution equations. The method is applied to a compound KdV-Burgers equation, and abundant new solitary wave solutions are obtained. The algorithm is also applicable to a large variety of nonlinear evolution equations.     

New periodic wave solutions,localized excitations and their interaction for （2＋l）-dimensional Burgers equation

Based on the B/icklund method and the multilinear variable separation approach （MLVSA）, this paper finds a general solution including two arbitrary functions for the （2＋1）-dimensional Burgers equations. Then a class of new doubly periodic wave solutions for （2＋l）-dimensional Burgers equations is obtained by introducing appropriate Jacobi elliptic functions, Weierstrass elliptic functions and their combination in the general solutions （which contains two arbitrary functions）. Two types of limit cases are considered. Firstly, taking one of the moduli to be unity and the other zero, it obtains particular wave （called semi-localized） patterns, which is periodic in one direction, but localized in the other direction. Secondly, if both moduli are tending to 1 as a limit, it derives some novel localized excitations （two-dromion solution）.

Using the variable separation approach, we obtain a general exact solution with arbitrary variable separation functions for the （2＋1）-dimensional breaking soliton system. By introducing Jacobi elliptic functions in the seed solution, two families of doubly periodic propagating wave patterns are derived. We investigate these periodic wave solutions with different modulus m selections, many important and interesting properties are revealed. The interaction of Jabcobi elliptic function waves are graphically considered and found to be nonelastic.

Linear superposition solutions to nonlinear wave equations

The solutions to a linear wave equation can satisfy the principle of superposition,i.e.,the linear superposition of two or more known solutions is still a solution of the linear wave equation.We show in this article that many nonlinear wave equations possess exact traveling wave solutions involving hyperbolic,triangle,and exponential functions,and the suitable linear combinations of these known solutions can also constitute linear superposition solutions to some nonlinear wave equations with special structural characteristics.The linear superposition solutions to the generalized KdV equation K(2,2,1),the Oliver water wave equation,and the k(n,n) equation are given.The structure characteristic of the nonlinear wave equations having linear superposition solutions is analyzed,and the reason why the solutions with the forms of hyperbolic,triangle,and exponential functions can form the linear superposition solutions is also discussed.     

Double-Parameter Solutions of Projective Riccati Equations and Their Applications

The purpose of the present paper is twofold. First, the projective Riccati equations （PREs for short） are resolved by means of a linearized theorem, which was known in the literature. Based on the signs and values of coeffcients of PREs, the solutions with two arbitrary parameters of PREs can be expressed by the hyperbolic functions, the trigonometric functions, and the rational functions respectively, at the same time the relation between the components of each solution to PREs is also implemented. Second, more new travelling wave solutions for some nonlinear PDEs, such as the Burgers equation, the mKdV equation, the NLS^＋ equation, new Hamilton amplitude equation, and so on, are obtained by using Sub-ODE method, in which PREs are taken as the Sub-ODEs. The key idea of this method is that the travelling wave solutions of nonlinear PDE can be expressed by a polynomial in two variables, which are the components of each solution to PREs, provided that the homogeneous balance between the higher order derivatives and nonlinear terms in the equation is considered.

Under long wave limit, two sets of new solution structures （dromions） are given. The interaction properties of these solutions reveal that some of them are completely elastic and some are inelastic.

Analytic Approximations for Soliton Solutions of Short-Wave Models for Camassa-Holm and Degasperis-Procesi Equations

In this paper, the short-wave model equations are investigated, which are associated with the Camassa- Holm （CH） and Degasperis Procesi （DP） shallow-water wave equations. Firstly, by means of the transformation of the independent variables and the travelling wave transformation, the partial differential equation is reduced to an ordinary differential equation. Secondly, the equation is solved by homotopy analysis method. Lastly, by the transformatioas back to the original independent variables, the solution of the original partial differential equation is obtained. The two types of solutions of the short-wave models are obtained in parametric form, one is one-cusp soliton for the CH equation while the other one is one-loop soliton for the DP equation. The approximate analytic solutions expressed by a series of exponential functions agree well with the exact solutions. It demonstrates the validity and great potential of homotopy analysis method for complicated nonlinear solitary wave problems.
