We prove that one system of coupled KdV equations, recently claimed by Hirota, Hu and Tang [J. Math. Anal. Appl. 288:326–348 (2003)] to pass the Painlevé test for integrability, actually fails the test at the highest resonance of the generic branch. Introduction In Section 6 of their recent work [1], Hirota, Hu and Tang reported that the system of coupled KdV equations ∂ui ∂t + 6a ( N

The paper presents two results. First it is shown how the discrete potential modified KdV equation and its Lax pairs in matrix form arise from the Hirota–Miwa equation by a 2-periodic reduction. Then Darboux transformations and binary Darboux transformations are derived for the discrete potential modified KdV equation and it is shown how these may be used to construct exact solutions.

In this paper, we examine a generalized magma equation for rational values of two parameters, m and n. Firstly, the similarity reductions are found using the Lie group method of infinitesimal transformations. The Painlevé ODE test is then applied to the travelling wave reduction, and the pairs of m and n which pass the test are identified. These particular pairs are further subjected to the ODE...

In this paper, an efficient algorithm of logarithmic transformation to Hirota bilinear form of the KdV-type bilinear equation is established. In the algorithm, some properties of Hirota operator and logarithmic transformation are successfully applied, which helps to prove that the linear terms of the nonlinear partial differential equation play a crucial role in finding the Hirota bilinear form...

The Hirota bilinear formalism and soliton solutions for a generalized Volterra system is presented. Also, starting from the soliton solutions, we obtain a class of nonsingular rational solutions using the ”long wave limit” procedure of Ablowitz and Satsuma, and appropriate ”gauge” transformations. Their properties are also discussed and it is shown that these solutions interact elastically with...

In this paper we obtain one and two soliton solutions to HirotaSatsuma KdV system with the aid of Hirota’s bilinear method. We also obtain some rational solutions. Mathematics Subject Classification: 35C05

We establish exact solutions including periodic wave and solitary wave solutions for the integrable sixth-order Drinfeld-Sokolov-Satsuma-Hirota system. We employ this system by using a generalized (G'/G)-expansion and the generalized tanh-coth methods. These methods are developed for searching exact travelling wave solutions of nonlinear partial differential equations. It is shown that these me...
