Although the homotopy analysis method (HAM) is, by now, a well-known analytic method for handling functional equations, there is no general proof of its applicability to all kinds of equations. In this paper, by using this method to solve equal-width wave (EW) and modified equal-width wave (MEW) equations, we have made a new contribution to this field of research. Our goal is to emphasize on two points: one is the efficiency of HAM in handling these important family of equations and its superiority over other analytic methods like homotopy perturbation method (HPM), variational iteration method (VIM), and Adomian decomposition method (ADM). The other point is that although the considered two equations have different nonlinear terms, we have used the same auxiliary elements to solve them.

A generalized Fisher's equation is solved by using the modified Adomian decomposition method (MADM), variational iteration method (VIM), homotopy analysis method (HAM), and modified homotopy perturbation method (MHPM). The approximation solution of this equation is calculated in the form of series whose components are computed easily. The existence, uniqueness, and convergence of the proposed methods are proved. Numerical example is studied to demonstrate the accuracy of the present methods.

In this paper, nonlinear dispersive equations and seventh-order Sawada–Kotera equation are solved using homotopy perturbation method (HPM) and variational iteration method (VIM). The results obtained by the proposed methods are then compared with that of Adomian decomposition method (ADM). The comparisons demonstrate that the two obtained solutions are in excellent agreement. The numerical results calculated show that the methods can be accurately implemented to these types of nonlinear equations. The results of HPM and VIM confirm the correctness of those obtained by Adomian decomposition method.

We put into practice a relatively new analytical technique, the homotopy decomposition method, for solving the nonlinear fractional coupled-Korteweg-de-Vries equations. Numerical solutions are given, and some properties exhibit reasonable dependence on the fractional-order derivatives’ values. The fractional derivatives are described in the Caputo sense. The reliability of HDM and the reduction in computations give HDM a wider applicability. In addition, the calculations involved in HDM are very simple and straightforward. It is demonstrated that HDM is a powerful and efficient tool for FPDEs. It was also demonstrated that HDM is more efficient than the adomian decomposition method (ADM), variational iteration method (VIM), homotopy analysis method (HAM), and homotopy perturbation method (HPM).

In this study by using the Homotopy Analysis Method (HAM) obtained approximate solutions for the space and time-fractional telegraph equations. In Caputo sense (Yildirim, 2010)these equations considered. Examples are solved and the obtained results show to be more accurate than Adomian Decomposition Method (ADM) and are more efficient and commodious.
