متن کاملAPPLICATION OF EXP-FUNCTION METHOD TO THE (2+1)-DIMENSIONAL CALOGERO BOGOYAVLANSKII SCHIFF EQUATION
In this paper, the Exp-function method, with the aid of a symbolic computation system such as Maple, is applied to the (2+1) -dimensional Calogero Bogoyavlanskii Schiff equation. Exact and explicit generalized solitary solutions are obtained in more general forms. The free parameters can be determined by initial or boundary conditions. The method is straightforward and concise, and its applicat...
متن کاملVariables in Computer Algebra , Mathematics , and
We discuss the notion of variable in computer algebra, mathematics and science. Central are the questions how variables are actually used in mathematics and science, how computer algebra supports the various uses of variable, what conceptual differences exist, and what consequences follow from this for teaching, learning, and doing mathematics with a computer algebra system. 1. Introduction In ...
