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.     

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.

Effects of positron density and temperature on ion acoustic dressed solitons in an electron–positron–ion plasma

Ion acoustic dressed solitons in a three component plasma consisting of cold ions, hot electrons and positrons are studied. Using reductive perturbation method, Korteweg–de Vries (KdV) equation and a linear inhomogeneous equation, governing respectively the evolution of first and second order potentials are derived for the system. Renormalization procedure of Kodama and Taniuti is used to obtain nonsecular solutions of these coupled equations. It is found that electron–positron–ion plasma system supports only compressive solitons. For a given amplitude of soliton on increasing the positron concentration, velocity of the KdV as well as dressed soliton increases. For any arbitrary values of soliton's amplitude and positron concentration, velocity of the dressed soliton is found to be larger than that of the KdV soliton. For small amplitude of solitons, the width of KdV as well as dressed soliton decreases as positron concentration increases and width of dressed soliton is found to be larger than that of the KdV soliton. However, for a large value of soliton's amplitude as concentration of positrons increases, instead of decreasing width of dressed soliton starts to increase.     

Bright matter wave solitons and their collision in Bose–Einstein condensates

We obtain the bright matter wave solitons in Bose–Einstein condensates from a trivial input solution by solving the time dependent Gross–Pitaevskii (GP) equation with quadratic potential and exponentially varying scattering length. We observe that the matter wave density of bright soliton increases with time by virtue of the exponentially increasing scattering length. We also understand that the matter wave densities of bright soliton trains remain finite despite the exchange of atoms during interaction and they travel along different trajectories (diverge) after interaction. We also observe that their amplitudes continue to fluctuate with time. For exponentially decaying scattering lengths, instability sets in the condensates. However, the scattering length can be suitably manipulated without causing the explosion or the collapse of the condensates.     

A Variable Separation Approach to Solve the Integrable and Nonintegrable Models:Coherent Structures of the (2 + 1)-Dimensional KdV Eqnation

We study the localized coherent structures ofa generally nonintegrable (2 1 )-dimensional KdV equation via a variable separation approach. In a special integrable case, the entrance of some arbitrary functions leads to abundant coherent structures. However, in the general nonintegrable case, an additional condition has to be introduced for these arbitrary functions. Although the additional condition has been introduced into the solutions of the nonintegrable KdV equation, there still exist many interesting solitary wave structures. Especially, the nonintegrable KdV equation possesses the breather-like localized excitations, and the similar static ring soliton solutions as in the integrable case. Furthermor,in the integrable case, the interaction between two travelling ring solitons is elastic, while in the nonintegrable case we cannot find even the single travelling ring soliton solution.     

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.     

Soliton and kink jams in traffic flow with open boundaries

Soliton density wave is investigated numerically and analytically in the optimal velocity model (a car-following model) of a one-dimensional traffic flow with open boundaries. Soliton density wave is distinguished from the kink density wave. It is shown that the soliton density wave appears only at the threshold of occurrence of traffic jams. The Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation is derived from the optimal velocity model by the use of the nonlinear analysis. It is found that the traffic soliton appears only near the neutral stability line. The soliton solution is analytically obtained from the perturbed KdV equation. It is shown that the soliton solution obtained from the nonlinear analysis is consistent with that of the numerical simulation.     

Higher-Dimensional Integrable Systems Induced by Motions of Curves in Affine Geometries

We discuss the motions of curves by introducing an extra spatial variable or equivalently, moving surfaces in arffine geometries. It is shown that the 2 ＋1-dimensional breaking soliton equation and a 2 ＋ 1-dimensional nonlinear evolution equation regarded as a generalization to the 1 ＋ 1-dimensional KdV equation arise from such motions.     

The Korteweg-de Vries soliton in the lattice hydrodynamic model

The lattice hydrodynamic model is not only a simplified version of the macroscopic hydrodynamic model, but is also closely connected with the microscopic car following model. The modified Korteweg-de Vries (mKdV) equation about the density wave in congested traffic has been derived near the critical point since Nagatani first proposed it. But the Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation near the neutral stability line has not been studied, which has been investigated in detail in the car following model. So we devote ourselves to obtaining the KdV equation from the lattice hydrodynamic model and obtaining the KdV soliton solution describing the traffic jam. Numerical simulation is conducted, to demonstrate the nonlinear analysis result.

A new complex line soliton for the two-dimensional KdV–Burgers equation

Making use of a extended tanh method with symbolic computation, we find a new complex line soliton for the two-dimensional (2D) KdV–Burgers equation. Its real part is the sum of the shock wave solution of a 2D Burgers equation and the solitary wave solution of a 2D KdV (KP) equation, and its imaginary part is the product of the shock wave solution of a 2D Burgers equation and the solitary wave solution of a 2D MKdV (MKP) equation.
