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 auxiliary equation method presents wide applicability to handling nonlinear wave equations. In this article, we establish new exact travelling wave solutions of the nonlinear Zoomeron equation, coupled Higgs equation, and equal width wave equation. The travelling wave solutions are expressed by the hyperbolic functions, trigonometric functions, and rational functions. It is shown that the proposed method provides a powerful mathematical tool for solving nonlinear wave equations in mathematical physics and engineering. Throughout the article, all calculations are made with the aid of the Maple packet program.

We present a method for the classification of all weak travelling-wave solutions for some dispersive nonlinear wave equations. When applied to the Camassa–Holm or the Degasperis–Procesi equation, the approach shows the existence of not only smooth, peaked and cusped travelling-wave solutions, but also more exotic solutions with fractal-like wave profiles.

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.
