In this paper we establish the nonlinear stability of solitary travelling-wave solutions for the Kawahara-KdV equation ut + uux + uxxx − γ1uxxxxx = 0, and the modified Kawahara-KdV equation ut + 3u 2ux + uxxx − γ2uxxxxx = 0, where γi ∈ R is a positive number when i = 1, 2. The main approach used to determine the stability of solitary travelling-waves will be the theory developed by Albert in [1].

In this paper, we apply the Miura transformation to construct the connection between a variablecoefficient KdV (vcKdV) equation and a variable-coefficient modified KdV (vcmKdV) equation under certain constraint. Solving the vcmKdV equation by use of the auxiliary equation method and using the Miura transformation, we find a rich variety of new exact solutions for the vcKdV equation, which inclu...

We use a generalized Cole-Hopf transformation to obtain a condition that allows us to find exact solutions for several forms of the general seventh-order KdV equation KdV7 . A remarkable fact is that this condition is satisfied by three well-known particular cases of the KdV7. We also show some solutions in these cases. In the particular case of the seventh-order Kaup-Kupershmidt KdV equation w...

In this Letter, we consider a coupled Schrödinger–Korteweg–de Vries equation (or Sch–KdV) equation with appropriate initial values using the Adomian’s decomposition method (or ADM). In this method, the solution is calculated in the form of a convergent power series with easily computable components. The method does not need linearization, weak nonlinearity assumptions or perturbation theory. Th...

In this work, we established exact solutions for the combined KdV-MKdV equation. By constructing four new types of Jacobi elliptic functions solutions, the Jacobi elliptic functions expansion method will be extend. With the aid of symbolic computation system mathematica, obtain some new exact periodic solutions of nonlinear combined KdV-MKdV equation , and these solutions are degenerated to sol...

We present a simplified one-dimensional model for pulse wave propagation through fluid-filled tubes with elastic walls, which takes into account the elasticity of the wall as well as the tapering effect. The spatial dynamics in this model is governed by a variable coefficient KdV equation with conditions given at the inflow site. We discuss an existence theory for the associated evolution equat...

The KdV equation can be considered as a special case of the general equation ut + f(u)x − δg(uxx)x = 0, δ > 0, (0.1) where f is non-linear and g is linear, namely f(u) = u/2 and g(v) = v. As the parameter δ tends to 0, the dispersive behavior of the KdV equation has been throughly investigated (see, e.g., [11], [6], [2] and the references therein). We show through numerical evidence that a comp...

In this paper we study weak continuity of the dynamical systems for the KdV equation in H−3/4(R) and the modified KdV equation in H1/4(R). This topic should have significant applications in the study of other properties of these equations such as finite time blow-up and asymptotic stability and instability of solitary waves. The spaces considered here are borderline Sobolev spaces for the corre...

Combining theorems of Halphen, Floquet, and Picard and a Frobenius type analysis, we characterize rational, meromorphic simply periodic, and elliptic KdV potentials. In particular, we explicitly describe the proper extension of the Airault–McKean–Moser locus associated with these three classes of algebro-geometric solutions of the KdV hierarchy with special emphasis on the case of multiple coll...

An analytic study was conducted on coupled partial differential equations. We formally derived new solitary wave solutions of generalized coupled system of Zakharov-Kuznetsov (ZK) and KdV equations by using modified extended tanh method. The traveling wave solutions for each generalized coupled system of ZK and KdV equations are shown in form of periodic, dark, and bright solitary wave solution...
