Numerical simulation of the soliton solutions for a complex modified Korteweg—de Vries equation by a finite difference method

In this paper,a Crank-Nicolson-type finite difference method is proposed for computing the soliton solutions of a complex modifed Korteweg de Vries(MKdV)equation(which is equivalent to the Sasa-Satsuma equation)with the vanishing boundary condition.It is proved that such a numerical scheme has the second order accuracy both in space and time,and conserves the mass in the discrete level.Meanwhile,the resuling scheme is shown to be unconditionally stable via the von Nuemann analysis.In addition,an iterative method and the Thomas algorithm are used together to enhance the computational efficiency.In numerical experiments,this method is used to simulate the single-soliton propagation and two-soliton collisions in the complex MKdV equation.The numerical accuracy,mass conservation and linear stability are tested to assess the scheme's performance.     

Periodic finite-genus solutions of the KdV equation are orbitally stable

The stability of periodic solutions of partial differential equations has been an area of increasing interest in the last decade. The KdV equation is known to have large families of periodic solutions that are parameterized by hyperelliptic Riemann surfaces. They are generalizations of the famous multi-soliton solutions. We show that all such periodic solutions are orbitally stable with respect to subharmonic perturbations: perturbations that are periodic with period equal to an integer multiple of the period of the underlying solution.     

An improved Hirota bilinear method and new application for a nonlocal integrable complex modified Korteweg-de Vries (MKdV) equation

The Hirota bilinear method has been studied in a lot of local equations, but there are few of works to solve nonlocal equations by Hirota bilinear method. In this letter, we show that the nonlocal integrable complex modified Korteweg-de Vries (MKdV) equation admits multiple complex soliton solutions. A variety of exact solutions including the single bright soliton solutions and two bright soliton solutions are derived via constructing an improved Hirota bilinear method for nonlocal complex MKdV equation. From the gauge equivalence, we can see the difference between the solution of nonlocal integrable complex MKdV equation and the solution of local complex MKdV equation.     

The modified Korteweg-de Vries equation on the quarter plane with t-periodic data

We study the modified Korteweg-de Vries equation posed on the quarter plane with asymptotically t-periodic Dirichlet boundary datum u(0,t) in the sense that u(0,t) tends to a periodic function g?₀ (t) with period τ as t → ∞. We consider the perturbative expansion of the solution in a small ε > 0. Here we show that if the unknown boundary data u_x(0,t) and u_xx(0,t) are asymptotically t-periodic with period τ which tend to the functions g?₁ (t) and g?₂ (t) as t → ∞, respectively, then the periodic functions g?₁ (t) and g?₂ (t) can be uniquely determined in terms of the function g?₀ (t). Furthermore, we characterize the Fourier coefficients of g?₁ (t) and g?₂ (t) to all orders in the perturbative expansion by solving an infinite system of algebraic equations. As an illustrative example, we consider the case of a sine-wave as Dirichlet datum and we explicitly determine the coefficients for large t up to the third order in the perturbative expansion.     

Soliton solution to the complex modified Korteweg–de Vries equation on both zero and nonzero background via the robust inverse scattering method

In this paper, based on the robust inverse scattering method, we construct two kinds of solutions to the focusing modified Korteweg–de Vries equation. One is the classical soliton solution under the zero background condition and the other one is given through the nonzero background. Especially, for the nonzero background case, we choose a special spectral parameter such that the nonzero background solution is changed into the rational travelling waves. Finally, we also give a simple analysis of the soliton as the time $t$ is large, then we give the comparison between the exact solution and the asymptotic solution.

Coupled Modified Korteweg-de Vries Lattice in (2+1) Dimensions and Soliton Solutions

The coupled semi-discrete modified Korteweg-de Vries equation in (2 1)-dimensions is proposed. It is shown that it can be decomposed into two (1 1)-dimensional differential-difference equations belonging to mKdV lattice hierarchy by considering a discrete isospectral problem. A Darboux transformation is set up for the resulting (2 1)- dimensional lattice soliton equation with the help of gauge transformations of Lax pairs. As an illustration by example,the soliton solutions of the mKdV lattice equation in (2 1)-dimensions are explicitly given.

Time-dependent Ginzburg-Landau equation in a car-following model considering the driver’s physical delay

In this paper, an extended car-following model considering the delay of the driver’s response in sensing headway is proposed to describe the traffic jam. It is shown that the stability region decreases when the driver’s physical delay in sensing headway increases. The phase transition among the freely moving phase, the coexisting phase, and the uniformly congested phase occurs below the critical point. By applying the reductive perturbation method, we get the time-dependent Ginzburg-Landau (TDGL) equation from the car-following model to describe the transition and critical phenomenon in traffic flow. We show the connection between the TDGL equation and the mKdV equation describing the traffic jam.     

The exact solutions to the complex KdV equation

In this Letter, Wronskian solutions for the complex KdV equation are obtained by Hirota's bilinear method. Moreover, starting from the bilinear Bäcklund transformation, multi-soliton solutions are presented for the same equation. At the same time, it is also shown that these two kinds of solutions are equivalent.     

The Modified Korteweg-de Vries Equation on the Half-Line with a Sine-Wave as Dirichlet Datum

Boundary value problems for integrable nonlinear evolution PDEs, like the modified KdV equation, formulated on the half-line can be analyzed by the so-called unified transform method. For the modified KdV equation, this method yields the solution in terms of the solution of a matrix Riemann-Hilbert problem uniquely determined in terms of the initial datum q(x,0), as well as of the boundary values {q(0, t),qx(0, t),qxx(0, t)}. For the Dirichlet problem, it is necessary to characterize the unknown boundary values qx(0, t) and qxx(0, t) in terms of the given data q(x, 0) and q(0, t). It is shown here that in the particular case of a vanishing initial datum and of a sine wave as Dirichlet datum, qx(0, t) and qxx(0, t) can be computed explicitly at least up to third order in a perturbative expansion and that at least up to this order, these functions are asymptotically periodic for large t.

In this Letter, the He's homotopy perturbation method (HPM) to finding the soliton solutions of the two-dimensional Korteweg–de Vries Burgers' equation (tdKdVB) for the initial conditions was applied. Numerical solutions of the equation were obtained. The obtained solutions, in comparison with the exact solutions admit a remarkable accuracy. The results reveal that the HPM is very effective and simple.

New binary travelling-wave periodic solutions for the modified KdV equation

In this Letter, the modified Korteweg-de Vries (mKdV) equations with the focusing (+) and defocusing (−) branches are investigated, respectively. Many new types of binary travelling-wave periodic solutions are obtained for the mKdV equation in terms of Jacobi elliptic functions such as sn(ξ,m)cn(ξ,m)dn(ξ,m) and their extensions. Moreover, we analyze asymptotic properties of some solutions. In addition, with the aid of the Miura transformation, we also give the corresponding binary travelling-wave periodic solutions of KdV equation.     

Nonlocal Symmetry and Explicit Solution of the Alice-Bob Modified Korteweg-de Vries Equation

Nonlocal symmetry and explicit solution of the integrable Alice-Bob modified Korteweg-de Vries (ABmKdV) equation is discussed, which has been established by the aid of the shifted parity and delayed time reversal to describe two-place events. Based on the Lax pair which contains the two-order partial derivative, the Lie symmetry group method is successfully applied to find the exact invariant solution for the AB-mKdV equation with nonlocal symmetry by introducing one suitable auxiliary variable. Meanwhile, based on the prolonged system, the explicit analytic interaction solutions related to some specific functions are derived. Figures show the physical phenomenon, that is, "the shifted parity and delayed time reversal to describe two-place events".     

Propagation and interaction of ion-acoustic solitary waves in a quantum electron-positron-ion plasma

This paper discusses the existence of ion-acoustic solitary waves and their interaction in a dense quantum electron-positron-ion plasma by using the quantum hydrodynamic equations.The extended Poincar’e-Lighthill-Kuo perturbation method is used to derive the Korteweg-de Vries equations for quantum ion-acoustic solitary waves in this plasma.The effects of the ratio of positrons to ions unperturbation number density p and the quantum diffraction parameter H e (H p) on the newly formed wave during interaction,and the phase shift of the colliding solitary waves are studied.It is found that the interaction between two solitary waves fits linear superposition principle and these plasma parameters have significantly influence on the newly formed wave and phase shift of the colliding solitary waves.The investigations should be useful for understanding the propagation and interaction of ion-acoustic solitary waves in dense astrophysical plasmas (such as white dwarfs) as well as in intense laser-solid matter interaction experiments.
