Abstract

Nonlinear science is a great revolution of modern natural science. As a result of its rise, the various branches of subjects characterized by nonlinearity have been developed vigorously. In particular, more attention to acquiring the exact solutions of a wide variety of nonlinear equations has been paid by people. In this paper, three methods for solving the exact solutions of the nonlinear -dimensional Jaulent-Miodek equation are introduced in detail. First of all, the exact solutions of this nonlinear equation are obtained by using the exp-expansion method, method, and sine-cosine method. Secondly, the relevant results are verified and simulated by using Maple software. Finally, the advantages and disadvantages of the above three methods listed in the paper are analyzed, and the conclusion was drawn by us. These methods are straightforward and concise in very easier ways.

1. Introduction

Since the 20th century, with the integration of various disciplines, people have gradually discovered nonlinear phenomena which exist in different disciplines but have common characteristics. The resulting nonlinear science is quickly and widely used in medical diagnosis, information technology, electrical engineering, and other fields, which greatly promotes the progress and development of human society [1].

Nonlinear science has laid a solid theoretical foundation for the safety, reliability, and stability of power systems [24]. By studying the nonlinear differential equations that appear in the ferromagnetic resonance overvoltage phenomenon, the safe operation of power grids at all levels can be effectively protected [5]. Aimed at the problem of asymmetric nonlinear oscillation in parallel operation of power stations, the harmonic linearization method is put forward, which is helpful to reasonably select the power grid structure and effectively improve the stability of power grid structure [6]. By constructing the nonlinear system model with random disturbance, the high-frequency faults of the power grid caused by disturbance can be greatly reduced [4, 7, 8]. According to the nonlinear characteristics of the actual power system, a reliable and stable nonlinear power grid structure model is constructed, and the exact solution of the equation in the structure model is obtained, which plays a decisive role in the stable operation of the electrified wire netting [9, 10].

Study on the exact solutions of a wide variety of nonlinear equations can not only help people discover new nonlinear phenomena and their laws but also help ensure the reliability and stability of nonlinear calculations. Therefore, more and more scholars have proposed different methods for studying the exact solutions of a wide variety of nonlinear equations. Gardner et al. [11] used the backscattering argument of the Schrödinger equation to propose the inverse scattering transformation method. Wang and Li [12] used the principle of homogeneous balance to derive the nonlinear transformation of a great deal of nonlinear PDE and obtained the exact solution of the equation. Yu and Sun [13] presented a new -dimensional KP-like nonlinear partial differential equation and construct the lump solutions, rationally localized in all directions in the space, to its two-dimensionally reduced cases. The method is based on a generalized bilinear differential equation, so we can build the lump solutions to the presented KP-like equation from special polynomial solutions to the aforementioned generalized bilinear equation which is helpful to improve the research efficiency. Yu and Sun [14] introduced the -dimensional Kadomtsev-Petviashvili-Boussinesq-like equation. Based on this constructed bilinear Bäcklund transformation, some classes of exponential and rational traveling wave solutions with arbitrary wave numbers are presented. It provides a new idea for the follow-up research. Matinfar and Hosseini [15] formally studied the dynamic behavior of the solution obtained in the presence of linear and nonlinear effects. The research process is clear and interesting. Akinyemi et al. [16] studied singular solitons of the -dimensional improved nonlinear Schrödinger equation with spatiotemporal dispersions, group velocity dispersions, and power law nonlinearity by using the Kudryashov method, a complex transformation as well as symbolic computations. The results show that the suggested approach is incredibly accurate and powerful and can be used to explore solitons and other forms of solutions of nonlinear wave models in applied sciences and engineering. In addition, there are many effective methods for solving exact solutions of nonlinear differential equations, for instance, Bäcklund transformation method [17], Painlevé truncation extension method [18, 19], continuation method [20], trial equation method [21], and Hirota bilinear method [2225].

In 1976, Jaulent and Miodek [26] proposed the coupled Jaulent-Miodek equation when studying the relationship between the nonlinear evolution equation and the energy-dependent Schrödinger potential. In 2007, Feng and Li [27] used the theory of the plane dynamic system to study the existence of solitary waves and periodic waves of the coupled Jaulent-Miodek equation and obtained all possible explicit expressions. In 2009, Wazwaz [28] obtained multiple kink solutions and multiple singular kink solutions by studying the -dimensional nonlinear evolution equation generated by the Jaulent-Miodek hierarchy. In 2013, Cai et al. [29] used the CK direct method to obtain new exact multiple kink and singular kink solutions through the symmetric transformation of the -dimensional Jaulent-Miodek equation. In 2014, Ma et al. [30] used the auxiliary equation method and the Clarkson-Kruskal direct method to study -dimensional nonlinear model systems and obtained some new exact solutions. In 2015, Matinfar et al. [31] studied some -dimensional integrable models generated by the Jaulent-Miodek hierarchy and deduced the quasiperiodic solution of the -dimensional integrable model. In 2016, Li et al. [32] obtained the classical Lie symmetry of the extended -dimensional Jaulent-Miodek equation through the direct symmetry method and obtained a large number of new exact solutions by solving the reduced equation. In 2017, Wei et al. [33] studied the -dimensional Jaulent-Miodek equation using the homogeneous balance method and obtained four new solitary wave solutions of the equation. In 2018, Motsepa et al. [34] derived the conservation law and obtained the traveling wave solutions of the -dimensional Jaulent-Miodek equation. In 2018, Gu et al. [35] used the complex method to seek for the exact solutions of the -dimensional Jaulent-Miodek equation. In 2019, Shehata and Zahran [36] used the Jaulent-Miodek equation to construct the exact traveling wave solutions of parametric equations with different methods. In 2020, Kaewta et al. [37] transformed the -dimensional Jaulent-Miodek equation into a fourth-order partial differential equation and then obtained the exact solution which is simple and reliable.

7. Discussions and Conclusions

By the exp-expansion method, we have obtained fourteen forms of solutions to the Jaulent-Miodek equation. Utilizing the method, we obtained four forms of solutions of the Jaulent-Miodek equation. In the end, utilizing the sine-cosine method, we obtained two forms of solutions to the Jaulent-Miodek equation. Combining the existing results found in this paper, more results are easily obtained by the exp-expansion method.

In [35], the authors adopt this complex method to seek for analytic solution of equation (3); the elliptic function solution is obtained by the complex method. From our paper and [35], it is easy to see that by utilizing the exp-expansion method and complex method, both can obtain the hyperbolic function solutions for the Jaulent-Miodek equation. Unfortunately, utilizing the sine-cosine approach, we find only the trigonometric function solutions for the Jaulent-Miodek equation.

In [37], the authors used both methods, namely, the -expansion method and the Jacobi elliptic equation method to calculate and analyze the explicit exact traveling wave solutions of the -dimensional Jaulent-Miodek equation as given by equation (1). By applying the expansion method to the equation, the solutions were obtained by the author including the triangular hyperbolic function solutions and rational function solutions. Implemented by the Jacobi elliptic equation method (analytical equation (1)), three sets of parameter values were reached. Every set has produced fifteen exact terms for the solution of Jacobi elliptic function solutions. By comparing the methods to [37], the methods in our article seem more concise and straightforward.

All three methods in this paper have their own characteristics. We trust that the above method presented here and the methods in [35, 37] together can be applied more effectively to find out solutions for nonlinear evolution equations currently and henceforth. The above-mentioned methods are very helpful tools for unearthing exact solutions to the nonlinear evolution equations.
