<p>The Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation which is the third order nonlinear PDE has been of interest since Scott Russell (1844) . In this paper we study this kind of equation by Painleve equation and through this study, we find that KdV equation satisfies Painleve property, but we could not find a solution directly, so we transformed the KdV equation to the like-KdV equation, therefore, we were able to find four exact solutions to the original KdV equation.</p>

All variable coefficient Korteweg – de Vries (KdV) equations with three-dimensional Lie point symmetry groups are investigated. For such an equation to have the Painlevé property, its coefficients must satisfy seven independent partial differential equations. All of them are satisfied only for equations equivalent to the KdV equation itself. However, most of them are satisfied in all cases. If the symmetry algebra is either simple, or nilpotent, then the equations have families of single-valued solutions depending on two arbitrary functions of time. Symmetry reduction is used to obtain particular solutions. The reduced ordinary differential equations are classified.

The Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation, a nonlinear partial differential equation which describes the motion of water waves, has been of interest since John Scott Russell (1834) [4]. In present work we study this kind of equation and through our study we found that the KdV equation passes Painleve?s test, but we could not locate the solution directly, so we used Schwarzian derivative technique. Therefore, we were able to find two new exact solutions to the KdV equation. Also, we used the numerical method of Modified Zabusky-Kruskal to describe the behavior of these solutions.

We investigate a case of the generalized Korteweg – De Vries Burgers equation. Our aim is to demonstrate the need for the application of further methods in addition to using Lie Symmetries. The solution is found through differential topological manifolds. We apply Lie’s theory to take the PDE to an ODE. However, this ODE is of third order and not easily solvable. It is through differentiable topological manifolds that we are able to arrive at a solution

The Korteweg–de Vries (KdV) equation is a weakly nonlinear third-order differential equation which models and governs the evolution of fixed wave structures. This paper presents the analysis of the approximate symmetries along with conservation laws corresponding to the perturbed KdV equation for different classes of the perturbed function. Partial Lagrange method is used to obtain the approximate symmetries and their corresponding conservation laws of the KdV equation. The purpose of this study is to find particular perturbation (function) for which the number of approximate symmetries of perturbed KdV equation is greater than the number of symmetries of KdV equation so that explore something hidden in the system.

The Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation is tested experimentally as a model for moderate amplitude waves propagating in one direction in relatively shallow water of uniform depth. For a wide range of initial data, comparisons are made between the asymptotic wave forms observed and those predicted by the theory in terms of the number of solitons that evolve, the amplitude of the leading soliton, the asymptotic shape of the wave and other qualitative features. The KdV equation is found to predict accurately the number of evolving solitons and their shapes for initial data whose asymptotic characteristics develop in the test section of the wave tank. The accuracy of the leading-soliton amplitudes computed by the KdV equation could not be conclusively tested owing to the viscous decay of the measured wave amplitudes; however, a procedure is presented for estimating the decay in amplitude of the leading wave. Computations suggest that the KdV equation predicts the amplitude of the leading soliton to within the expected error due to viscosity (12%) when the non-decayed amplitudes are less than about a quarter of the water depth. Indeed, agreement to within about 20% is observed over the entire range of experiments examined, including those with initial data for which the non-decayed amplitudes of the leading soliton exceed half the fluid depth.

One of the phenomenon in marine science that is often encountered is the phenomenon of water waves. Waves that occur below the surface of seawater are called internal waves. One of the mathematical models that can represent solitary internal waves is the modified Korteweg-de Vries (mKdV) equation. Many methods can be used to construct the solution of the mKdV wave equation, one of which is the extended F-expansion method. The purpose of this study is to determine the solution of the mKdV wave equation using the extended F-expansion method. The result of solving the mKdV wave equation is the exact solutions. The exact solutions of the mKdV wave equation are expressed in the Jacobi elliptic functions, trigonometric functions, and hyperbolic functions. From this research, it is expected to be able to add insight and knowledge about the implementation of the innovative methods for solving wave equations.

Some exceptional situations in fluid mechanics can be modeled by equations that are analytically solvable. The most famous example is the Korteweg–de Vries (KdV) equation for shallow water waves in a channel. The exact soliton solution of this equation is derived. The Lax pair formalism for solving the general initial value problem is outlined. Two hamiltonian formalisms for the KdV equation (Fadeev–Zakharov and Magri) are explained. Then a short review of the geometry of curves (Frenet–Serret equations) is given. They are used to derive a remarkably simple equation for the propagation of a kink along a vortex filament. This equation of Hasimoto has surprising connections to the nonlinear Schrödinger equation and to the Heisenberg model of ferromagnetism. An exact soliton solution is found.

AbstractFrom the known Lax pair of the Korteweg–de Vries (KdV) equation, the Lie symmetry group method is successfully applied to find exact invariant solutions for the KdV equation with nonlocal symmetries by introducing two suitable auxiliary variables. Meanwhile, based on the prolonged system, the explicit analytic interaction solutions related to the hyperbolic and Jacobi elliptic functions are derived. Figures show the physical interaction between the cnoidal waves and a solitary wave.
