A new integrable equation that combines the KdV equation with the negative‐order KdV equation

In this work, we develop a new integrable equation by combining the KdV equation and the negative‐order KdV equation. We use concurrently the KdV recursion operator and the inverse KdV recursion operator to construct this new integrable equation. We show that this equation nicely passes the Painlevé test. As a result, multiple soliton solutions and other soliton and periodic solutions are guaranteed and formally derived.
