The Jacobin doubly periodic wave solution, the Weierstrass elliptic function solution, the bell-type solitary wave solution, the kink-type solitary wave solution, the algebraic solitary wave solution, and the triangular solution of a generalized Korteweg-de Vries-modified Korteweg-de Vries equation (GKdV-mKdV) with higher-order nonlinear terms are obtained by a generalized subsidiary ordinary d...

We prove some decay estimates of the energy of the wave equation governed by localized nonlinear dissipations in a bounded domain in which trapped rays may occur. The approach is based on a comparison with the linear damped wave equation and an interpolation argument. Our result extends to the nonlinear damped wave equation the well-known optimal logarithmic decay rate for the linear damped wav...

The 11-parameter transformation group with generators (2) and (5) is called the extended Poincaré group P̃ (1, 3). The above result admits the following group-theoretical interpretation: on the set of solutions of the nonlinear wave equation (1) two inequivalent representations of the extended Poincaré group are realized. Each representation gives rise to a P̃ (1, 3)nonlinear wave equation with a...

The simplest equation method presents a wide applicability to handling nonlinear wave equations. In this paper, we establish travelling wave solutions for some nonlinear evolution equations. The simplest equation method is used to construct the travelling wave solutions of new Hamiltonian amplitude equation, (3 + 1)-dimensional generalized KP equation, Burgers-KP equation, coupled Higgs field e...

The complex -symmetric nonlinear wave models have drawn much attention in recent years since the complex -symmetric extensions of the Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation were presented in 2007. In this review, we focus on the study of the complex -symmetric nonlinear Schrödinger equation and Burgers equation. First of all, we briefly introduce the basic property of complex symmetry. We then report...

Wave group dynamics is studied in the framework of the extended Korteweg-de Vries equation. The nonlinear Schrodinger equation is derived for weakly nonlinear wave packets, and the condition for modulational instability is obtained. It is shown that wave packets are unstable only for a positive sign of the coe cient of the cubic nonlinear term in the extended Korteweg-de Vries equation, and for...

The cubic nonlinear Schroedinger equation (NLS) describes the space-time evolution of narrow-banded wave trains in one space and one time (1 + 1) dimensions. The richness of nonlinear wave motions described by NLS is exemplified by the fully nonlinear envelope soliton and “breather” solutions, which are fully understood only in terms of the general solution of the equation as described by the i...

In this paper, a new fractional sub-equation method is proposed for finding exact solutions of fractional partial differential equations (FPDEs) in the sense of modified Riemann-Liouville derivative. With the aid of symbolic computation, we choose the space-time fractional Zakharov-Kuznetsov-Benjamin-Bona-Mahony (ZKBBM) equation in mathematical physics with a source to illustrate the validity a...

We advance two nonlinear wave equations related to the nonextensive thermostatistical formalism based upon the power-law nonadditive Sq entropies. Our present contribution is in line with recent developments, where nonlinear extensions inspired on the q-thermostatistical formalism have been proposed for the Schroedinger, Klein–Gordon, and Dirac wave equations. These previously introduced equati...
