This paper analytically solves the Riccati equation of discrete optimal control with two targets and one tool. This is accomplished by reducing the problem to a nonlinear univariate dynamic equation; this can be solved by a suitable transformation of variable. Beyond its direct application to two-target economic problems, the present approach may provide insight toward the eventual solution of ...

Using the S.Lie’s infinitesimal approach we establish the connection between integrability of a one-parameter family of the Riccati equations and the stationary KdV hierarchy. In this paper we will suggest a method for integrating a one-parameter family of the Riccati equations ux + u 2 = f(x, λ) (1) based on their Lie symmetries. Here f(x, λ) = λ + λVn−1(x) + · · ·+ λV1(x) + V0(x) and λ is an ...

Scalar multidimensionally consistent quadrilateral lattice equations are studied. We explore a confluence between the superposition principle for solutions related by the Bäcklund transformation, and the method of solving a Riccati map by exploiting two known particular solutions. This leads to an expression for the N -soliton-type solutions of a generic equation within this class. As a particu...

By means of Riccati transformation techniques, we establish some new oscillation criteria for the second order nonlinear dynamic equation

Minimal surfaces in multidimensional spaces naturally arise as classical trajectories of relativistic strings with Lagrangians suggested by Nambu (see [1]) and by Polyakov (see [2]). From geometric point of view these are surfaces of zero mean curvature. Their immersion into environment space often is given by the equations integrable by means of inverse scattering method (see [3–5]). Minimal s...

We study the linearization of a class of Liénard type nonlinear second-order ordinary differential equations from the generalized Sundman transformation viewpoint. The linearizing generalized Sundman transformation for the class of equations is constructed. The transformation is used to map the underlying class of equations into a linear second-order ordinary differential equation which is not ...

In this paper, we study the oscillation of a class of second-order nonlinear neutral damped variable delay dynamic equations on time scales. By using a generalized Riccati transformation technique, we obtain some sufficient conditions for the oscillation of the equations. The results of this paper improve and extend some known results. We also illustrate our main results with some examples. Key...

in this paper a modification of he's variational iteration method (vim) has been employed to solve dung and riccati equations. sometimes, it is not easy or even impossible, to obtain the first few iterations of vim, therefore, we suggest to approximate the integrand by using suitable expansions such as taylor or chebyshev expansions.

In this paper, the kudryashov method has been used for finding the general exact solutions of nonlinear evolution equations that namely the (3 + 1)-dimensional Jimbo-Miwa equation and the (3 + 1)-dimensional potential YTSF equation, when the simplest equation is the equation of Riccati.
