非线性发展方程行波解的符号计算

Abstract. A Riccati equation involving a parameter and symbolic computation are used to uni-formly construct the different forms of travelling wave solutions for nonlinear evolution equa-tions. It is shown that the sign of the parameter can be applied in judging the existence of vari-ous forms of travelling wave solutions. An efficiency of this method is demonstrated on some e-quations,which include Burgers-Huxley equation,Caudrey-Dodd-Gibbon-Kawada equation,gen-eralized Benjamin-Bona-Mahony equation and generalized Fisher equation.     

Synchronization of spatiotemporal nonlinear dynamical systems by an active control

The approach we present in this work examines the synchronization of unidirectionally coupled nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs) by an active control. It is a generalization of the method used by us to synchronize chaotic systems, described by one- or two-dimensional maps. The considered pair of PDEs are Fisher–Kolmogorov's equations, the synchronization of which we studied both analytically and numerically.     

Using generating functions to convert an implicit (3,3) finite difference method to an explicit form on diffusion equation with different boundary conditions

In this article, our main goal is to develop an idea to convert an implicit (3,3) ??-scheme finite difference method to an explicit form for both linear and nonlinear diffusion equations and also for nonlinear advection-diffusion equation with different boundary conditions. Accordingly, we assist power series generating functions which are a routine method in discrete mathematics. Also, the stability analysis of ??–scheme to implement in nonlinear advection–diffusion equation has been investigated. Finally, the new approach has been implemented for Fisher, reaction–diffusion, Burgers and coupled Burgers equations as test problems to verify the ability and efficiency of the method proposed in this paper.     

The homotopy analysis method for explicit analytical solutions of Jaulent–Miodek equations

In this work, the homotopy analysis method (HAM) is applied to obtain the explicit analytical solutions for system of the Jaulent–Miodek equations. The validity of the method is verified by comparing the approximation series solutions with the exact solutions. Unlike perturbation methods, the HAM does not depend on any small physical parameters at all. Thus, it is valid for both weakly and strongly nonlinear problems. Besides, different from all other analytic techniques, the HAM provides us a simple way to adjust and control the convergence region of the series solution by means of an auxiliary parameter ?. Briefly speaking, this work verifies the validity and the potential of the HAM for the study of nonlinear systems. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Numer Methods Partial Differential Eq, 2009     

Nonautonomous first integrals and general solutions of the KdV‐Burgers and mKdV‐Burgers equations with the source

The method for constructing first integrals and general solutions of nonlinear ordinary differential equations is presented. The method is based on index accounting of the Fuchs indices, which appeared during the Painlevé test of a nonlinear differential equation. The Fuchs indices indicate us the leading members of the first integrals for the origin differential equation. Taking into account the values of the Fuchs indices, we can construct the auxiliary equation, which allows to look for the first integrals of nonlinear differential equations. The method is used to obtain the first integrals and general solutions of the KdV‐Burgers and the mKdV‐Burgers equations with a source. The nonautonomous first integrals in the polynomials form are found. The general solutions of these nonlinear differential equations under at some additional conditions on the parameters of differential equations are also obtained. Illustrations of some solutions of the KdV‐Burgers and the mKdV‐Burgers are given.     

Explicit series solutions of some linear and nonlinear Schrodinger equations via the homotopy analysis method

In this paper, by means of the homotopy analysis method (HAM), the solutions of some Schrodinger equations are exactly obtained in the form of convergent Taylor series. The HAM contains the auxiliary parameter ?, that provides a convenient way of controlling the convergent region of series solutions. This analytical method is employed to solve linear and nonlinear examples to obtain the exact solutions. HAM is a powerful and easy-to-use analytic tool for nonlinear problems.     

A modified tanh–coth method for solving the general Burgers–Fisher and the Kuramoto–Sivashinsky equations

In this work we use a modified tanh–coth method to solve the general Burgers–Fisher and the Kuramoto–Sivashinsky equations. The main idea is to take full advantage of the Riccati equation that the tanh-function satisfies. New multiple travelling wave solutions are obtained for the general Burgers–Fisher and the Kuramoto–Sivashinsky equations.     

Homotopy analysis method for solving the MHD flow over a non-linear stretching sheet

The problem of the boundary layer flow of an incompressible viscous fluid over a non-linear stretching sheet is considered. Homotopy analysis method (HAM) is applied in order to obtain analytical solution of the governing nonlinear differential equations. The obtained results are finally compared through the illustrative graphs with the exact solution and an approximate method. The compression shows that the HAM is very capable, easy-to-use and applicable technique for solving differential equations with strong nonlinearity. Moreover, choosing a suitable value of none–zero auxiliary parameter as well as considering enough iteration would even lead us to the exact solution so HAM can be widely used in engineering too.     

A new approach for solving highly nonlinear partial differential equations by successive differentiation method

In this work successive differentiation method is applied to solve highly nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs) such as Benjamin–Bona–Mahony equation, Burger's equation, Fornberg–Whitham equation, and Gardner equation. To show the efficacy of this new technique, figures have been incorporated to compare exact solution and results of this method. Wave variable is used to convert the highly nonlinear PDE into ordinary differential equation with order reduction. Then successive differentiation method is utilized to obtain the numerical solution of considered PDEs in this paper. Copyright © 2017 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

On the homotopy analysis method for backward/forward-backward stochastic differential equations

In this paper, an analytic approximation method for highly nonlinear equations, namely the homotopy analysis method (HAM), is employed to solve some backward stochastic differential equations (BSDEs) and forward-backward stochastic differential equations (FBSDEs), including one with high dimensionality (up to 12 dimensions). By means of the HAM, convergent series solutions can be quickly obtained with high accuracy for a FBSDE in a 6-dimensional case, within less than 1 % CPU time used by a currently reported numerical method for the same case [34]. Especially, as dimensionality enlarges, the increase of computational complexity for the HAM is not as dramatic as this numerical method. All of these demonstrate the validity and high efficiency of the HAM for the backward/forward-backward stochastic differential equations in science, engineering, and finance.     

Ill-posedness of nonlocal Burgers equations

Nonlocal generalizations of Burgers equation were derived in earlier work by Hunter [J.K. Hunter, Nonlinear surface waves, in: Current Progress in Hyberbolic Systems: Riemann Problems and Computations, Brunswick, ME, 1988, in: Contemp. Math., vol. 100, Amer. Math. Soc., 1989, pp. 185–202], and more recently by Benzoni-Gavage and Rosini [S. Benzoni-Gavage, M. Rosini, Weakly nonlinear surface waves and subsonic phase boundaries, Comput. Math. Appl. 57 (3–4) (2009) 1463–1484], as weakly nonlinear amplitude equations for hyperbolic boundary value problems admitting linear surface waves. The local-in-time well-posedness of such equations in Sobolev spaces was proved by Benzoni-Gavage [S. Benzoni-Gavage, Local well-posedness of nonlocal Burgers equations, Differential Integral Equations 22 (3–4) (2009) 303–320] under an appropriate stability condition originally pointed out by Hunter. In this article, it is shown that the latter condition is not only sufficient for well-posedness in Sobolev spaces but also necessary. The main point of the analysis is to show that when the stability condition is violated, nonlocal Burgers equations reduce to second order elliptic PDEs. The resulting ill-posedness result encompasses various cases previously studied in the literature.     

New implementation of radial basis functions for solving Burgers‐Fisher equation

In this article, we consider the problem of solving Burgers‐Fisher equation. The approximate solution is found using the radial basis functions collocation method. Also for solving of the resulted nonlinear system of equations, we proposed a predictor corrector method based on the fixed point iterations. The numerical tests show that this method is accurate and efficient for finding a closed form approximation of the solution of nonlinear partial differential equations. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Decay estimates for the solutions of some multidimensional nonlinear evolution equations

This paper considers the global existence and optimal temporal decay—estimates of solutions to a class of multidimensional nonlinear evolution equations whose dispersive and dissipative terms have the same order p(p > 1). Such a class includes the multidimensional generalized Benjamin—Ono—Burgers equation and the multidimensional generalized Schrodinger—Burgers equations as special examples     

Master partial differential equations for a Type II hidden symmetry

An approach for determining a class of master partial differential equations from which Type II hidden point symmetries are inherited is presented. As an example a model nonlinear partial differential equation (PDE) reduced to a target PDE by a Lie symmetry gains a Lie point symmetry that is not inherited (hidden) from the original PDE. On the other hand this Type II hidden symmetry is inherited from one or more of the class of master PDEs. The class of master PDEs is determined by the hidden symmetry reverse method. The reverse method is extended to determine symmetries of the master PDEs that are not inherited. We indicate why such methods are necessary to determine the genesis of Type II symmetries of PDEs as opposed to those that arise in ordinary differential equations (ODEs).     

Prediction of multiplicity of solutions of nonlinear boundary value problems: Novel application of homotopy analysis method

The purpose of the present paper is to introduce a method, probably for the first time, to predict the multiplicity of the solutions of nonlinear boundary value problems. This procedure can be easily applied on nonlinear ordinary differential equations with boundary conditions. This method, as will be seen, besides anticipating of multiplicity of the solutions of the nonlinear differential equations, calculates effectively the all branches of the solutions (on the condition that, there exist such solutions for the problem) analytically at the same time. In this manner, for practical use in science and engineering, this method might give new unfamiliar class of solutions which is of fundamental interest and furthermore, the proposed approach convinces to apply it on nonlinear equations by today’s powerful software programs so that it does not need tedious stages of evaluation and can be used without studying the whole theory. In fact, this technique has new point of view to well-known powerful analytical method for nonlinear differential equations namely homotopy analysis method (HAM). Everyone familiar to HAM knows that the convergence-controller parameter plays important role to guarantee the convergence of the solutions of nonlinear differential equations. It is shown that the convergence-controller parameter plays a fundamental role in the prediction of multiplicity of solutions and all branches of solutions are obtained simultaneously by one initial approximation guess, one auxiliary linear operator and one auxiliary function. The validity and reliability of the method is tested by its application to some nonlinear exactly solvable differential equations which is practical in science and engineering.     

Modified lattice Boltzmann scheme for nonlinear convection diffusion equations

To further improve the simulation performance of nonlinear convection diffusion equations (NCDE), in this paper, a modified lattice Boltzmann (LB) scheme is put forward by introducing a new parameter that offers more opportunities in studying NCDE while increases the computation cost hardly, the derivation of LB scheme is investigated in detail, and the numerical experiments are carried out in different NCDE, including Nonlinear Heat Conduction Equation, Burgers–Fisher Equation and Nonlinear Schrödinger Equation. The simulation results obtained not only agree well with the analytical solutions, but also demonstrate that the proposed scheme under the best choice of the parameters can preserve the better stability and higher accuracy in comparison with previous schemes.     

The exotic conformal Galilei algebra and nonlinear partial differential equations

The conformal Galilei algebra (cga) and the exotic conformal Galilei algebra (ecga) are applied to construct partial differential equations (PDEs) and systems of PDEs, which admit these algebras. We show that there are no single second-order PDEs invariant under the cga but systems of PDEs can admit this algebra. Moreover, a wide class of nonlinear PDEs exists, which are conditionally invariant under cga. It is further shown that there are systems of nonlinear PDEs admitting ecga with the realisation obtained very recently in [D. Martelli, Y. Tachikawa, Comments on Galilei conformal field theories and their geometric realisation, preprint, arXiv:0903.5184v2 [hep-th], 2009]. Moreover, wide classes of nonlinear systems, invariant under two different 10-dimensional subalgebras of ecga are explicitly constructed and an example with possible physical interpretation is presented.     

Exact solutions for two nonlinear wave equations with nonlinear terms of any order

In this paper, based on a variable-coefficient balancing-act method, by means of an appropriate transformation and with the help of Mathematica, we obtain some new types of solitary-wave solutions to the generalized Benjamin–Bona–Mahony (BBM) equation and the generalized Burgers–Fisher (BF) equation with nonlinear terms of any order. These solutions fully cover the various solitary waves of BBM equation and BF equation previously reported.     

An approximation of the analytic solution of some nonlinear heat transfer in fin and 3D diffusion equations using HAM

In this article, the approximate solution of nonlinear heat diffusion and heat transfer equation are developed via homotopy analysis method (HAM). This method is a strong and easy‐to‐use analytic tool for investigating nonlinear problems, which does not need small parameters. HAM contains the auxiliary parameter ?, which provides us with a simple way to adjust and control the convergence region of solution series. By suitable choice of the auxiliary parameter ?, we can obtain reasonable solutions for large modulus. In this study, we compare HAM results, with those of homotopy perturbation method and the exact solutions. The first differential equation to be solved is a straight fin with a temperature‐dependent thermal conductivity and the second one is the two‐ and three‐dimensional unsteady diffusion problems. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
