Abstract

In this study, the solutions of -dimensional nonlinear Date–Jimbo–Kashiwara–Miwa (DJKM) equation are characterized, which can be used in mathematical physics to model water waves with low surface tension and long wavelengths. The integration scheme, namely, the extended direct algebraic method, is used to extract complex trigonometric, rational and hyperbolic functions. The complex-valued solutions represent traveling waves in different structures, such as bell-, V-, and W-shaped multiwaves. The results obtained in this article are novel and more general than those contained in the literature (Wang et al., 2014, Yuan et al., 2017, Pu and Hu 2019, Singh and Gupta 2018). Furthermore, the mechanical features and dynamical characteristics of the obtained solutions are demonstrated by three-dimensional graphics.

1. Introduction

Nonlinear evolution equations (NLEEs) can represent various nonlinear problems that occur in a wide range of scientific fields such as nonlinear optics, mathematical physics, superconductivity, biophysics, optical fiber, modern optics, solid state physics, fluid mechanics, fluid dynamics, plasma physics, chemical physics, and chemical kinetics. In the literature, various effective approaches have been proposed to calculate the exact solutions for NLEEs [13], such as the Hereman–Nuseir method [4], inverse scattering transformation [5], Painlevé technique [6], Bäcklund transformation [7], extended modified auxiliary equation mapping method [8], Darboux transformation [9], Exp-function method [10], binary-bell-polynomial scheme [11], modified Khater method [12], ansatz method [13], sine-Gordon expansion method [14], trial equation method [15, 16], extended direct algebraic method [17], and auxiliary equation method [18].

In this study, the nonlinear DJKM equation [19] is investigated to construct various solitary wave solutions. In the integrable systems of KP hierarchy, the Jimbo–Miwa equation is the second equation used to explain such interesting -dimensional waves in physics. The DJKM equation can be used in mathematical physics to model water waves with low surface tension and long wavelengths with weakly nonlinear restoring forces and frequency dispersion. Firstly, Hu and Li [19] applied bilinear Bäcklund transformations and nonlinear superposition formula for nonlinear DJKM equations, and after a gap of more than two decades, Wang et al. [20] used the bell polynomials to study the integrable properties of nonlinear DJKM equations such as Lax system, Bäcklund transformations, and infinite conservation laws along with multishock wave. Yuan et al. [21] presented Grammian- and Wronskian-type solutions by the Hirota method, and other types of solution are also obtained like auxiliary variables, the bilinear Bäcklund transformation, and N-soliton. Pu and Hu [22] employed the sine-Gordon expansion method in finding the traveling wave solutions of nonlinear DJKM equations and obtained hyperbolic, trigonometric, and complex solutions. Singh and Gupta [23] used the direct method and nonlinear self-adjointness to find the Painlevé analysis, symmetric properties, and conservation laws of the nonlinear DJKM equation. Sajid and Akram [24] utilized exp-expansion method and derived some exact traveling wave solutions including trigonometric, hyperbolic, and rational functions and W-shaped soliton of the DJKM equation. The proposed research analyzes some more new exact solutions such as bell-, V-, and W-shaped multiwave types of the nonlinear DJKM equation which are not yet found in the literature. To our utmost understanding, the DJKM equations were not analyzed using the extended direct algebraic method. Therefore, the benefits of this article included evaluating a wide range of advanced and contextual solutions to the considered wave equations by the use of the extended direct algebraic method. Furthermore, this beneficial and powerful approach can be used to investigate other NLEEs which frequently emerge in different scientific real-world applications.

The novelty of this paper lies in the following: (i) complex-valued solutions and solitons are in different shapes and (ii) 3-dimensional figures are first presented by the extended direct algebraic method. The limitations of this work include that the solution methods for the construction of exact solutions to the equation involve various parameters. Such parameters show up in the final precise solution expressions and create hurdles in some physical situations. These are resolved with a careful selection of appropriate parametric values which is possible through graphical interpretation and testing of the solution expressions.

The structure of this paper is organized as follows: in Section 2, detailed explanation of the extended direct algebraic method has been presented. Section 3 illustrates the method to solve the -dimensional DJKM equation. In Section 3.1, the physical explanation of the solutions by mechanical features and dynamical characteristics is demonstrated. Finally, conclusion is given in Section 4.

3.1. Physical Description of Solutions

A solitary wave is a restricted gravity wave that maintains its finite amplitude and propagates with consistent speed and constant shape. Solitons are the solitary wave with an elastic dispersive property. Solitons are the consequence of a delicate balance between nonlinear and dispersive impact in the medium. If the solution is in the form of tangent, secant, cotangent, and cosecant hyperbolic, then the solution is called dark, bright, singular, singular-soliton solutions, respectively. The solution of hyperbolic tangent plus hyperbolic secant form is called combined dark-bright soliton solution. The solution of hyperbolic cotangent plus hyperbolic cosecant form is called combined singular soliton solution, and the solution of hyperbolic tangent plus hyperbolic cotangent form is called dark-singular combo soliton solution.

Families 15 and 17 represent the exact periodic traveling wave solutions, whereas the Families 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, and 24 show the rational solutions.

4. Conclusion

To investigate the -dimensional DJKM equation for exact solutions, the extended direct algebraic method is applied. By the extended direct algebraic method, many new exact solitary wave solutions are constructed including the singular, dark, combined dark-bright, periodic-singular, combined dark-singular, combined singular, and rational kinds. Such observations show that the suggested approaches are highly helpful and efficient in solving the NEEs. The complex-valued solutions represent traveling waves in different structures. Even though some are of the well-known forms such as bell-, V-, and W-shaped multiwaves, the shape of some others are completely different from them which were not found in the previous literature. The results of this investigation can be useful in illustrating the physical meaning of the studied model by 3D graphics. The performance of the method is reliable and a computerized mathematical approach to conduct other NLEEs in the field of mathematical physics and applied sciences.
