Symbolic computation of exact solutions for a nonlinear evolution equation Liu Yinping *, Li Zhibin, Wang Kuncheng Department of Computer Science, East China Normal University, Shanghai 200062, China Accepted 14 September 2005

Abstract In this paper, by means of the Jacobi elliptic function method, exact double periodic wave solutions and solitary wave solutions of a nonlinear evolution equation are presented. It can be shown that not only the obtained solitary wave solutions have the property of loop-shaped, cusp-shaped and hump-shaped for different values of parameters, but also different types of double periodic wave solutions are possible, namely periodic loop-shaped wave solutions, periodic hump-shaped wave solutions or periodic cusp-shaped wave solutions. Furthermore, periodic loop-shaped wave solutions will be degenerated to loop-shaped solitary wave solutions for the same values of parameters. So do cuspshaped solutions and hump-shaped solutions. All these solutions are new and first reported here. Ó 2006 Elseiver Ltd. All rights reserved.

1. Introduction Consider the nonlinear evolution equation   o 1 o o D2 u þ pu2 þ bu þ qDu ¼ 0; D :¼ þ u ; ox 2 ot ox

where p, q and b are arbitrary constants. To construct exact solutions of Eq. (1.1) is all-important. For much research has been conducted on special cases of Eq. (1.1). For example, when p = b = 0 and q = 1, (1.1) is reduced to the well known Vakhnenko equation (VE) [1], which governs the propagation of waves in a relaxing medium. In [2] it was shown that the VE has a multi-loop soliton solution. When p = q = 1 and b an arbitrary non-zero constant, (1.1) is reduced as the GVE (generalization of the VE), in [3] it was shown that GVE has N-soliton solutions. When p = 2q and b an arbitrary non-zero constant, (1.1) is reduced to mGVE (modified generalization of the VE), in [4] it was shown that mGVE not only has loop soliton solution, but also has hump-like and cusp-like soliton solution. Some work for other special cases: the case p = 2q, b = 1 was discussed by Ablowitz et al. [5] and was shown to be integrable by inverse scattering, the case p = q, b = 1 was discussed by Hirota and Satsuma [6] and was shown to be integrable using HirotaÕs bilinear technique, etc.

Much of the above work is closely related to the following equation: #  " dx uxx uxt þ sgn ¼ 0. ds ð1 þ u2x Þ3=2 xx

ð1:2Þ

This equation shares the similar properties with VE, and its loop soliton solutions have been discussed successively in articles [7–10]. Especially Ishimori [9] found a transformation of the dependent and independent variables to Eq. (1.2) and obtained multiple loop solutions. The methods used in studying VE, GVE and mGVE are similar, although it is only the independent variables that are transformed. Our interesting is to construct exact double periodic wave solutions as well as solitary wave solutions of Eq. (1.1) by the Jacobi elliptic function method [11–13] in this paper. In Section 2, we briefly introduce the Jacobi elliptic function method. In Section 3, we construct exact solutions of Eq. (1.1) by this method, not only new loop-like, hump-like and cusp-like soliton solutions, but also more general double periodic wave solutions, were obtained. It is very interesting that different types of double periodic wave solutions are possible, namely, periodic loop-shaped wave solutions, periodic cusp-shaped wave solutions or periodic hump-shaped wave solutions, for different values of the parameters p, q, b, k. A conclusion is then given in the final Section 4.

2. The Jacobi elliptic function method Consider nonlinear evolution equation H ðu; ut ; ux ; uxx ; . . .Þ ¼ 0;

ð2:3Þ

where u = u(x, t). H is a polynomial about u and its derivatives. We seek its explicit solution in the form u ¼ uðnÞ;

n ¼ kðx  ctÞ;

ð2:4Þ

where k and c are the wave number and wave speed, respectively. Using the Jacobi elliptic function method, u(n) can be expressed as a polynomial of different Jacobi elliptic functions. Such as uðnÞ ¼

n X

ai snðnÞi ;

ð2:5Þ

i¼0

P P similarly, uðnÞ ¼ ni¼0 ai cnðnÞi , or uðnÞ ¼ ni¼0 ai dnðnÞi , where sn(n) is the Jacobi elliptic sine function, cn(n) the Jacobi elliptic cosine function and dn(n) the Jacobi elliptic function of the third kind. It is apparent that the highest degree of u(n) is O(u(n)) = n. Since cnðnÞ2 ¼ 1  snðnÞ2 ;

dnðnÞ2 ¼ 1  m2 snðnÞ2 ;

ð2:6Þ

and d snðnÞ ¼ cnðnÞ dnðnÞ; dn

d cnðnÞ ¼ snðnÞ dnðnÞ; dn

d dnðnÞ ¼ m2 snðnÞ cnðnÞ; dn

where m (0 < m < 1) is the modulus, the highest degree of dpu/dnp is taken as  p   p  du qd u ¼ n þ p; O u ¼ ðq þ 1Þn þ p; p ¼ 1; 2; 3; . . . ; q ¼ 0; 1; 2; . . . . O dnp dnp

ð2:7Þ

ð2:8Þ

Thus n can be obtained by balancing the linear term(s) of highest order with the highest-order nonlinear term(s) in Eq. (2.3). Here k, c, a0, . . . , an are parameters to be determined later. Substituting Eq. (2.5) into Eq. (2.3) yields a set of algebraic equations for k, c, a0, . . . , an. WuÕs elimination method[14,15] is a powerful tool for solving nonlinear algebraic equations, and k, c, a0, . . . , an can be obtained. Therefore, the exact double periodic wave solutions are obtained. When m ! 1, the Jacobi elliptic functions degenerate to the hyperbolic functions, i.e., snðnÞ ! tanhðnÞ;

cnðnÞ ! sechðnÞ;

dnðnÞ ! sechðnÞ.

So, besides double periodic wave solutions, solitary wave solutions can also be obtained by this method.

3. Symbolic computation of exact solutions For the nonlinear evolution Eq. (1.1), introducing new independent variables X and T, defined by Z X U ðX 0 ; T Þ dX 0 þ x0 ; t ¼ X ; x¼T þ

ð3:10Þ

1

where u(x, t) = U(X, T) and x0 is a constant [4]. Let Z X W ðX ; T Þ ¼ U ðX 0 ; T Þ dX 0 ;

ð3:11Þ

1

we have W X ðX ; T Þ ¼ U ðX ; T Þ.

ð3:12Þ

From (3.10) it follows that o o o ¼ þu ; oX ot ox

o o ¼w ; oT ox

where w(X, T) = 1 + WT. Use of (3.10) transforms (1.1) into the following equation Z 1 U XXT þ pUU T  qU X U T ðX 0 ; T Þ dX 0 þ bU T þ qU X ¼ 0;

ð3:13Þ

ð3:14Þ

X

substituting (3.12) into (3.14) yields W XXXT þ pW X W XT þ qW XX W T þ bW XT þ qW XX ¼ 0.

ð3:15Þ

Now, introducing a new independent variable n ¼ kðX  cT Þ;

ð3:16Þ

substituting (3.16) into Eq. (3.15) and integrating once yields k 4 cW 3n  1=2ðp þ qÞk 3 cW 2n þ ðqk 2  bk 2 cÞW n ¼ C;

ð3:17Þ

where C is an integral constant. By taking V(n) = Wn, we obtain k 4 cV 2n  1=2ðp þ qÞk 3 cV ðnÞ2 þ ðqk 3  bk 2 cÞV ðnÞ ¼ C. Suppose that Eq. (3.18) has solutions with the form n X ai snðnÞi ; V ðnÞ ¼

ð3:18Þ

ð3:19Þ

i¼0

By balancing the linear term(s) of highest order with the highest-order nonlinear term in Eq. (3.18) we obtain n = 2. So the ansatz solution of Eq. (3.18) can be rewritten as V ðnÞ ¼ a0 þ a1 snðnÞ þ a2 snðnÞ2 .

ð3:20Þ

Substituting (3.20) into Eq. (3.18) and collecting each power of sn yields algebraic equations about parameters aj (j = 0, 1, 2) and k, c, i.e., k 3 cpa20  2qk 3 a0 þ 2bk 2 ca0 þ k 3 cqa20 þ 4k 4 ca2 ¼ 0; k 4 ca1 m2  k 3 cpa1 a0 þ k 4 ca1  bk 2 ca1 þ qk 3 a1  k 3 cqa1 a0 ¼ 0; 8k 4 ca2 m2 þ 2k 3 qa2  k 3 cqa21 þ 8k 4 ca2  2k 3 cqa2 a0  2k 2 bca2  2k 3 cpa2 a0 þ k 3 cpa21 ¼ 0; 4

By using (3.10), (3.12) and (3.23), we obtain a parameterized double periodic wave solution of Eq. (1.1) as follows: pffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffi 2

By using (3.10), (3.12) and (3.24), we obtain another double periodic wave solution of Eq. (1.1) as follows: pffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffi 2

When m ! 1, the double periodic solution (3.27) is degenerated to 8 h i kq 4k 2 > < uðx; tÞ ¼ pþq 2 þ 3 sech2 k t  b4k ; 2 T h h ii kq > 4k : x ¼ T  pþq 2n  3 tanh k t  b4k . 2 T

Taking p = 2q, the solitary wave solution (3.26) is reduced to the soliton solution (4.4) and (4.5) in [4], it can be seen that the 1-soliton solution of the mGVE is just a special case of solution (3.26). In [4] it was shown that the solutions (4.4) and (4.5) for different values of parameters b, k may be different types, namely, loops, cusps or humps. So do the solitary wave solutions (3.26) and (3.28) for parameters b, k, p. And also we known that different types of double periodic wave solutions (3.25) and (3.27) are possible for different values of parameters b, k, p, namely, periodic loopshaped wave solutions, periodic cusp-shaped wave solutions or periodic hump-shaped wave solutions. Furthermore, besides parameters b, k, parameter p can independently determine the types of all our obtained solutions. This conclusion can be shown in Figs. 1–3 for fixing k = 1, b = 1. Parameter q mainly works on the periods of solutions. In addition, the periodic loop-shaped wave solutions will be degenerated to loop-like solitary wave solutions. So do the cusp-shaped solutions and hump-shaped solutions. We display this conclusion for fixing p = 2 and m = 0.8 in Figs. 4–6. Finally, the plots of solutions (3.27) and (3.28) are shown in Figs. 7–9 for the same parameter values with those in Figs. 4–6. We can see that there are big difference for the type and shape between solutions (3.25), (3.26) and (3.27), (3.28).

4. Summary In this paper, by the Jacobi elliptic function method, some new exact double periodic wave solutions and solitary wave solutions of a nonlinear evolution equation are constructed. It can be seen that the soliton solutions of the VE equation, the GVE equation and the mGVE equation are just special cases of our obtained new solitary wave solutions. Moreover, it is very interesting that not only our obtained new solitary wave solutions may be loop-shaped, cuspshaped and hump-shaped for different values of parameters, but also our new more general double periodic solutions have this property. Furthermore, apart from parameters b, k, parameter p exerts a great impact on the shape of solutions.
