We present the mixed dn-sn method for finding periodic wave solutions of some nonlinear wave equations. Introducing an appropriate transformation, we extend this method to a special type of nonlinear equations and construct their solutions, which are not expressible as polynomials in the Jacobi elliptic functions. The obtained solutions include the well known kink-type and bell-type solutions as a limiting cases. Also, some new travelling wave solutions are found. - PACS: 02.30.Jr; 03.40.Kf

AbstractThe functional variable method is a powerful solution method for obtaining exact solutions of nonlinear evolution equations. This method presents a wider applicability for handling nonlinear wave equations. In this paper, the functional variable method is used to construct exact solutions of Davey-Stewartson equation, generalized Zakharov equation, K(m, n) equation with generalized evolution term, (2 + 1)-dimensional long-wave-short-wave resonance interaction equation and nonlinear Schrödinger equation with power law nonlinearity. The obtained solutions include solitary wave solutions, periodic wave solutions.

We study the exact traveling wave solutions of a general fifth-order nonlinear wave equation and a generalized sixth-order KdV equation. We find the solvable lower-order subequations of a general related fourth-order ordinary differential equation involving only even order derivatives and polynomial functions of the dependent variable. It is shown that the exact solitary wave and periodic wave solutions of some high-order nonlinear wave equations can be obtained easily by using this algorithm. As examples, we derive some solitary wave and periodic wave solutions of the Lax equation, the Ito equation, and a general sixth-order KdV equation.

Four large classes of nonlinear wave equations are studied, and the existence of solitary wave, kink and anti-kink wave, and uncountably many periodic wave solutions is proved. The analysis is based on the bifurcation theory of dynamical systems. Under some parametric conditions, various sufficient conditions for the existence of the aforementioned wave solutions are derived. Moreover, all possible exact parametric representations of solitary wave, kink and anti-kink wave, and periodic wave solutions are obtained and classified.

For the Lax KdV5 equation and the KdV–Sawada–Kotera–Ramani equation, their corresponding four-dimensional traveling wave systems are studied by using Congrove's method. Exact explicit gap soliton, embedded soliton, periodic and quasi-periodic wave solutions are obtained. The existence of homoclinic manifolds to three kinds of equilibria including a hyperbolic equilibrium, a center-saddle and an equilibrium with zero pair of eigenvalues is revealed. The bifurcation conditions of equilibria are given.
