A general scheme for analyzing reductions of Whitham hierarchies is presented. It is based on a method for determining the S-function by means of a system of first order partial differential equations. Compatibility systems of differential equations characterizing both reductions and hodograph solutions of Whitham hierarchies are obtained. The method is illustrated by exhibiting solutions of in...

We consider the solution of spectral problems with elliptic coefficients in the framework of the Hermite ansatz. We show that the search for exactly solvable potentials and their spectral characteristics is reduced to a system of polynomial equations solvable by the Gröbner bases method and others. New potentials and corresponding solutions of the Sawada–Kotera, Kaup– Kupershmidt, Boussinesq eq...

We study a two-dimensional integrable generalization of the Kaup-Kupershmidt equation, which arises in various problems in mathematical physics. Exact solutions are obtained using the Lie symmetry method in conjunction with the extended tanhmethod and the extended Jacobi elliptic functionmethod. In addition to exact solutions we also present conservation laws which are derived using the multipl...
