چکیده

Nonlinear reaction-diffusion systems are known to exhibit very many novel spatiotemporal patterns. Fisher equation is a prototype of diffusive equations. In this contribution we investigate the integrability properties of the generalized Fisher type equation to obtain physically interesting solutions using Lie symmetry analysis. In particular, we report several travelling wave patterns, static patterns and localized structures depending upon the choice of the parameters involved.

A Diffusion Equation with Exponential Nonlinearity Recant Developments

The purpose of this paper is to analyze in detail a special nonlinear partial differential equation (nPDE) of the second order which is important in physical, chemical and technical applications. The present nPDE describes nonlinear diffusion and is of interest in several parts of physics, chemistry and engineering problems alike. Since nature is not linear intrinsically the nonlinear case is t...

On the Integrability, BÄcklund Transformation and Symmetry Aspects of a Generalized Fisher Type Nonlinear Reaction-diffusion equation

The dynamics of nonlinear reaction-diffusion systems is dominated by the onset of patterns and Fisher equation is considered to be a prototype of such diffusive equations. Here we investigate the integrability properties of a generalized Fisher equation in both (1+1) and (2+1) dimensions. A Painlevé singularity structure analysis singles out a special case (m = 2) as integrable. More interestin...

Homotopy Perturbation Method for the Generalized Fisher’s Equation

More recently, Wazwaz [An analytic study of Fisher’s equation by using Adomian decomposition method, Appl. Math. Comput. 154 (2004) 609–620] employed the Adomian decomposition method (ADM) to obtain exact solutions to Fisher’s equation and to a nonlinear diffusion equation of the Fisher type. In this paper, He’s homotopy perturbation method is employed for the generalized Fisher’s equation to o...

N ov 2 00 1 Singularity analysis of a new discrete nonlinear Schrödinger equation

We apply the Painlevé test for integrability to the new discrete nonlinear Schrödinger equation introduced by Leon and Manna. Since the singular expansions of solutions of this equation turn out to contain non-dominant logarithmic terms, we conclude that the studied equation is nonintegrable. This result supports the recent observation of Levi and Yamilov that the Leon–Manna equation does not a...

Qualitative Properties and Existence of Solutions for a Generalized Fisher-like Equation

This paper is devoted to the study of an eigenvalue second order differential equation, supplied with homogenous Dirichlet conditions and set on the real line. In the linear case, the equation arises in the study of a reaction-diffusion system involved in disease propagation throughout a given population. Under some relations upon the real parameters and coefficients, we present some existence ...
