AbstractThe inviscid Burgers equation is studied with the Painleve analysis. A Bäcklund transformation is constructed. Then we give the symmetry generators. A two-dimensional case is also investigated.
The Sharma-Tasso-Olver (STO) equation is investigated. The Painlevé analysis is efficiently used for analytic study of this equation. The Bäcklund transformations and some new exact solutions are formally derived.
