We use the integrable Kaup-Boussinesq shallow water system, modified by a small viscous term, to model the formation of an undular bore with a steady profile. The description is made in terms of the corresponding integrable Whitham system, also appropriately modified by viscosity. This is derived in Riemann variables using a modified finite-gap integration technique for the Ablowitz-Kaup-Newell...

By applying a special Bäcklund transformation, a general variable separation solution for the (2+1)-dimensional higher-order Broer-Kaup system is derived. In addition to some types of the usual localized excitations, such as dromions, lumps, ring solitons, oscillated dromions and breathers, soliton structures can be easily constructed by selecting arbitrary functions appropriately. A new class ...

In this paper, a simple direct method is presented to find equivalence transformation of a nonlinear WhithamBroer-Kaup equations. Applying this equivalence transformation, we can obtain the symmetry group theorem of the Whitham-Broer-Kaup equations and then derive series of new exact and explicit solutions of the Whitham-Broer-Kaup equations according to solutions of the previous references.

— Kaup-Newell soliton hierarchy is derived from a kind of Lax pairs different from the original ones. Binary nonlinearization procedure corresponding to the Bargmann symmetry constraint is carried out for those Lax pairs. The proposed Lax pairs together with adjoint Lax pairs are constrained as a hierarchy of commutative, finite dimensional integrable Hamiltonian systems in the Liouville sense,...

We consider the solution of spectral problems with elliptic coefficients in the framework of the Hermite ansatz. We show that the search for exactly solvable potentials and their spectral characteristics is reduced to a system of polynomial equations solvable by the Gröbner bases method and others. New potentials and corresponding solutions of the Sawada–Kotera, Kaup– Kupershmidt, Boussinesq eq...
