Many different kinds of exact soliton solution are obtained, all of which are completely novel and have never been reported in the literature before. The dynamical behaviors of some obtained exact soliton solutions are also demonstrated by a choice of appropriate values of the free constants that aid in understanding the nonlinear complex phenomena of such equations. These exact soliton solutions are observed in the shapes of different dynamical structures of localized solitary wave solutions, singular-form solitons, single solitons,double solitons, triple solitons, bell-shaped solitons, combo singular solitons, breather-type solitons,elastic interactions between triple solitons and kink waves, and elastic interactions between diverse solitons and kink waves. Because of the reduction in symbolic computation work and the additional constructed closed-form solutions, it is observed that the suggested technique is effective, robust, and straightforward. Moreover, several other types of higher-dimensional nonlinear evolution equation can be solved using the powerful GERF technique.展开更多

To circumvent the multi-value of eigenvalues, we introduce a suitable two-sheet Riemann surface to map the original spectral parameter k into a single-valued parameter z. The analyticity of the Jost eigenfunctions and scattering coefficients of the Lax pair for the Sasa-Satsuma equation are analyzed in detail. According to the analyticity of the eigenfunctions and the scattering coefficients, the z-complex plane is divided into four analytic regions of D_(j) : j = 1, 2, 3, 4. Since the second column of Jost eigenfunctions is analytic in D_(j), but in the upper-half or lowerhalf plane, we introduce certain auxiliary eigenfunctions which are necessary for deriving the analytic eigenfunctions in Dj. We find that the eigenfunctions, the scattering coefficients and the auxiliary eigenfunctions all possess three kinds of symmetries;these characterize the distribution of the discrete spectrum. The asymptotic behaviors of eigenfunctions, auxiliary eigenfunctions and scattering coefficients are also systematically derived. Then a matrix Riemann-Hilbert problem with four kinds of jump conditions associated with the problem of nonzero asymptotic boundary conditions is established, from this N-soliton solutions are obtained via the corresponding reconstruction formulae. The reflectionless soliton solutions are explicitly given. As an application of the N-soliton formula, we present three kinds of single-soliton solutions according to the distribution of discrete spectrum.展开更多

One is the classical soliton solution under the zero background condition and the other one is given through the nonzero background.Especially, for the nonzero background case, we choose a special spectral parameter such that the nonzero background solution is changed into the rational travelling waves. Finally, we also give a simple analysis of the soliton as the time t is large, then we give the comparison between the exact solution and the asymptotic solution.展开更多
