In this paper, we use a dynamical systems approach to prove the existence of traveling waves solutions for the Fisher–Kolmogorov density-dependent equation.

In this paper, we apply the method of dynamical systems to the traveling wave solutions of the Novikov equation. Through qualitative analysis, we obtain bifurcations of phase portraits of the traveling system and exact cuspon wave solution, as well as a family of breaking wave solutions (compactons). We find that the corresponding traveling system of Novikov equation has no one-peakon solution.

The generalized HD type equation is studied by using the bifurcation method of dynamical systems. From a dynamic point of view, the existence of different kinds of traveling waves which include periodic loop soliton, periodic cusp wave, smooth periodic wave, loop soliton, cuspon, smooth solitary wave, and kink-like wave is proved and the sufficient conditions to guarantee the existence of the above solutions in different regions of the parametric space are given. Also, all possible exact parametric representations of the bounded waves are presented and their relations are stated.

We focus on studying approximate solutions of damped oscillatory solutions of generalized KdV-Burgers equation and their error estimates. The theory of planar dynamical systems is employed to make qualitative analysis to the dynamical systems which traveling wave solutions of this equation correspond to. We investigate the relations between the behaviors of bounded traveling wave solutions and dissipation coefficient, and give two critical valuesλ1andλ2which can characterize the scale of dissipation effect, for right and left-traveling wave solution, respectively. We obtain that for the right-traveling wave solution if dissipation coefficientα≥λ1, it appears as a monotone kink profile solitary wave solution; that if0<α<λ1, it appears as a damped oscillatory solution. This is similar for the left-traveling wave solution. According to the evolution relations of orbits in the global phase portraits which the damped oscillatory solutions correspond to, we obtain their approximate damped oscillatory solutions by undetermined coefficients method. By the idea of homogenization principle, we give the error estimates for these approximate solutions by establishing the integral equations reflecting the relations between exact and approximate solutions. The errors are infinitesimal decreasing in the exponential form.

Periodic Traveling Wave

We numerically investigate periodic traveling wave solutions for a diffusive predator–prey system with landscape features. The landscape features are modeled through the homogeneous Dirichlet boundary condition which is imposed at the edge of the obstacle domain. To effectively treat the Dirichlet boundary condition, we employ a robust and accurate numerical technique by using a boundary control function. We also propose a robust algorithm for calculating the numerical periodicity of the traveling wave solution. In numerical experiments, we show that periodic traveling waves which move out and away from the obstacle are effectively generated. We explain the formation of the traveling waves by comparing the wavelengths. The spatial asynchrony has been shown in quantitative detail for various obstacles. Furthermore, we apply our numerical technique to the complicated real landscape features.

It was reported in the literature that some nonlinear wave equations have the so-called loop- and inverted-loop-soliton solutions, as well as the so-called loop-periodic solutions. Are these true mathematical solutions or just numerical artifacts? To answer the question, this article investigates all traveling wave solutions in the parameter space for three typical nonlinear wave equations from a theoretical viewpoint of dynamical systems. Dynamical analysis shows that all these loop- and inverted-loop-solutions are merely visual illusion of numerical artifacts. To reveal the nature of such special phenomena, this article also offers the mathematical parametric representations of these traveling wave solutions precisely in analytic forms.

We consider the orbital stability of solitary traveling wave solutions of an equation describing the free surface waves of moderate amplitude in the shallow water regime. Firstly, we rewrite this equation in Hamiltonian form and construct two invariants of motion. Then using the abstract stability theorem of solitary waves proposed by Grillakis et al. (1987), we prove that the solitary traveling waves of the equation under consideration are orbital stable.

As a result, the existence of solitary wave solutions of the Cahn Allen equation is obtained. Exact explicit solutions interms of hyperbolic solutions of the associated Cahn Allen equation are characterized with some free parameters. Finally, the variety of structure and graphical representation make the dynamics of the equations visible and provides the mathematical foundation in mathematical biology, quantum mechanics and plasma physics.
