884 A H Salas Thus, f 2 will be of the form f 2 = λ exp2θ Calculating the left hand side LHS of 315, 321 Lf 2 = 2400a 2 b 7 e 40a2 bt 5 +2x+2δ = 2400λa 2 b 7 exp2θ and equating it with 320 we get λ =1/16 so 322 f 2 = 1 16 exp2θ It is straightforward to chec that f n = 0 for n 3 Therefore, using 37 and 313 with ɛ = 1, the one-soliton solution of 31 generated by f = 1 + expθ+ 1 16 exp2θ = 1 + expx 20a2 b 5 t + δ+ 1 16 exp2x 20a2 b 5 t + δ is 480a 4+e 2 x 20a2 b 5t+δ +16e x 20a2 b 5 t+δ 323 ux, t = 16 + e x 20a2 b 5 t+δ +16e x 20a2 b 5 t+δ 2 312 The Two-Soliton Solution For the two-soliton solution, we start with 324 f 1 = expθ 1 + expθ 2, where θ i = i x c i t + δ i, i =1, 2 From 314 we get c i =20a 2 bi 5, i =1, 2 To find f 2, the RHS of 315 has to be calculated We obtain N 1 f 1,f 1 = 150a 2 b1 7 e2θ 1 + 150a 2 b2 7 e2θ 2 + 325 50a 2 be θ 1+θ 2 1 2 1 + 2 2 4 1 2 2 2 1 +2 4 2 e θ 1 +θ 2 Obviously, f 2 must be of the form 326 f 2 = p exp2θ 1 +q exp2θ 2 +r expθ 1 + θ 2 In contrast to what happened for the KdV, the Lax, and SK equations, the terms in exp2θ i no longer drop out We now substitute 326 into 315 Computation of the LHS yields Lf 2 = 2400a 2 b1 7 pe2θ 1 + 2400a 2 b2 7 qe2θ 2 + 327 100a 2 b 1 2 r 1 + 2 3 2 1 + 2 1 + 2 2 e θ 1 +θ 2 Equating 325 and 327 gives p = q = 1 16 and 328 Therefore, 329 r = 2 4 1 2 2 2 1 +24 2 2 1 + 2 2 2 1 + 2 1 + 2 2 f 2 = 1 16 expθ 1+ 1 16 expθ 2+ 2 4 1 2 2 2 1 +24 2 2 1 + 2 2 2 1 + 2 1 + 2 2 expθ 1 + θ 2
Solving the generalized Kaup Kupershmidt equation 885 Proceeding in a similar way with 316 we find 330 f 3 = s exp2θ 1 + θ 2 + expθ 1 +2θ 2, s = 1 2 2 1 2 1 2 + 2 2 331 16 1 + 2 1 2 + 1 2 + 2 2 To find f 4, equation 317 has to be solved, which leads to 332 f 4 = s 2 exp2θ 1 +2θ 2 = 1 2 4 2 1 1 2 + 2 2 2 256 1 + 2 2 2 1 + 1 2 + 2 2 2 exp2θ 1 +2θ 2 After verifying that all f n will be zero, for n 5, the form of f for ɛ =1 will be f = expθ 1 + expθ 2 + 1 16 exp2θ 1+ 1 16 exp2θ 2+rexpθ 1 + θ 2 + 333 s exp2θ 1 + θ 2 + expθ 1 +2θ 2 + s 2 exp2θ 1 +2θ 2, where r and s are given by 328 and 331, respectively The two-soliton solution of Eq 31 could be obtained by substituting 333 into 37 In a similar fashion, we may find three and four soliton solutions For additional details, see [2] 4 Conclusions We have obtained many solutions of the generalized KK equation by using three distinct methods The Exp-function method is a promising method because it can establish a variety of solutions of distinct physical structures This method allows us to obtain many new solutions for evolution equations References [1] Cole J D, A quasi-linear parabolic equation occuring in aerodynamics,quart Appl Math, 1951, 9, pages 225-236 [2] Hereman W & Nuseir A, Symbolic methods to find exact solutions of nonlinear partial differential equations, 14th IMACS World Congress Atlanta, July, 1994 [3] Hopf E, The partial differential equation u t + uu x = u xx, Comm Pure Appl Math, 3, 1950, 201-230 [4] He JH & Wu XH, Exp-function method for nonlinear wave equations, Chaos, Solitons and Fractals, Volume 30, Issue 3, Nov 2006, Pages: 700-708 [5] Satsuma J & Kaup DJ, J Phys Soc Japan 43, 692-697 1977 Received: March, 2012
