THE EXACT SOLUTIONS OF NONLINEAR PDE S
1. INTRODUCTION
1.1 NONLINEAR PARTIAL DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS
Historically, partial differential equations originated from the study of surfaces in geometry and for
solving a wide variety of problems in mechanics. During the second half of the nineteenth century, a
large number of mathematicians became actively involved in the investigation of numerous problems
presented by partial differential equations. The primary reason for this research was that partial
differential equations both express many fundamental laws of nature and frequently arise in the
mathematical analysis of diverse problems in science and engineering. The next phase of the
development of linear partial differential equations is characterized by the efforts to develop the
general theory and various methods of solutions of these linear equations. In fact, partial differential
equations have been found to be essential to develop the theory of surfaces on the one hand and to the
solution of physical problems on the other. These two areas of mathematics can be seen as linked by
the bridge of the calculus of variations. With the discovery of the basic concepts and properties of
distributions, the modern theory of the linear partial differential equations is now well established.
The subject plays a central role in modern mathematics, especially in physics, geometry, and
analysis.[1]
Partial differential equations is a many-faceted subject. Created to describe the mechanical
behavior of objects such as vibrating strings and blowing winds, it has developed into a body of
material that interacts with many branches of mathematics, such as differential geometry, complex
analysis, and harmonic analysis, as well as a ubiquitous factor in the description and elucidation of
problems in mathematical physics. There is existence and uniqueness of solutions to ODE and
explicit solutions to equations with constant coefficients and relations to linear algebra–and more
sophisticated results–on flows generated by vector fields, connections with differential geometry, the
calculus of differential forms, stationary action principles in mechanics, and their relation to
Hamiltonian systems. These are equations of relativistic motion as well as equations of classical
Newtonian mechanics. There are also applications to topological results, such as degree theory, the
Brouwer fixed point theorem, and the Jordan-Brouwer separation theorem. Finding and interpreting
the solutions of these equation is a central part of the modern applied mathematics, and a thorough
understanding of partial differential equations is essential for mathematicians. [2]

The most general second-order nonlinear partial differential equation in two in-dependent variables x
and y has the form
F(x, y, u, ux, uy, uxx, uxy, uyy)=0. (2)
Similarly, the most general first-order and second-order nonlinear equations in more independent
variables can be introduced.
More formally, it is possible to write these equations in the operator form
Lxu(x)=f(X), (3)
Where Lx is a partial differential operator and f(X) is a given function of two or more independent
variables X=(x,y,...). If Lx is not a linear operator, (3) is called a non linear partial differential
equation. Equation (3) is called an inhomogeneous nonlinear equation. If f(x) NOT = 0. On the other
hand, (3) is called a homogeneous nonlinear equation if f(X)=0.

general method of finding analytical solutions of nonlinear partial differential equations, and
numerical techniques are usually required for their solution. A transformation of variables can
sometimes be found that transforms a nonlinear equation into a linear equation, or some other ad hoc
method can be used to find a solution of a particular nonlinear equation. In fact, new methods are
usually required for finding solutions of nonlinear equations. Methods of solution for nonlinear
equations represent only one aspect of the theory of nonlinear partial differential equations. [2]
Although the origin of nonlinear partial differential equations is very old, they have undergone
remarkable new developments during the last half of the twentieth century. One of the main
impulses for developing nonlinear partial differential equations has been the study of nonlinear wave
propagation problems. These problems arise in different areas of applied mathematics, physics, and
engineering, including fluid dynamics, nonlinear optics, solid mechanics, plasma physics, quantum
field theory, and condensed-matter physics. Nonlinear wave equations in particular have provided
several examples of new solutions that are remarkably different from those obtained for linear wave
problems. The best known examples of these are the corresponding shock waves, water waves,
solitons and solitary waves. One of the remarkable properties of solitons is a localized wave form that
is retained after interaction with other solitons, confirming solitons’ ‘particle-like’ behavior. Indeed,
the theory of nonlinear waves and solitons has experienced a revolution over the past three decades.
During this revolution, many remarkable and unexpected phenomena have also been observed in
physical, chemical, and biological systems. Other major achievements of twentieth-century applied
mathematics include the discovery of soliton interactions, the Inverse Scattering Transform (IST)
method for finding the explicit exact solution for several canonical partial differential equations, and
asymptotic perturbation analysis for the investigation of nonlinear evolution equations.[2]

It has new applications to problems in fluid dynamics, plasma physics, nonlinear optics, gas
dynamics, analytical dynamics, and acoustics. It has special applications in physical, chemical,
biological, and engineering problems involving nonlinear wave phenomena.

Fisher, Korteweg–de Vries(KdV), Boussinesq , modified KdV, nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS),
the Euler equation of motion , Benjamin–Ono(BO), Benjamin–Bona–Mahony (BBM), Ginzburg–
Landau (GL), Burgers–Huxley(BH), KP, concentric KdV, Whitham, Davey–Stewartson, Toda

It has some applications in the continuity equation, the associated energy equation and energy flux,
linear water wave problems and their solutions, nonlinear finite amplitude waves (the Stokes waves),
gravity waves, gravity-capillary waves, and linear and nonlinear dispersion relations. Finally, the
modern theory of nonlinear water waves is formulated.
2.3 MOTIVATION:
True Laws of Nature cannot be linear.
Albert Einstein
...the progress of physics will to a large extent depend on the progress of nonlinear
mathematics, of methods to solve nonlinear equations . . . and therefore we can learn
by comparing different nonlinear problems.
Werner Heisenberg
Partial differential equations arise frequently in the formulation of fundamental laws of nature and in
the mathematical analysis of a wide variety of problems in applied mathematics, mathematical
physics, and engineering science. This subject plays a central role in modern mathematical sciences,
especially in physics, geometry, and analysis. Many problems of physical interest are described by
partial differential equations with appropriate initial and/or boundary conditions. These problems are
usually formulated as initial-value problems, boundary-value problems, or initial boundary-value
problems. In order to prepare myself for study and research in nonlinear partial differential
equations, a way of finding essential exact solution of linear partial differential equation is their is
required.
Questions of existence, uniqueness, and stability of solutions of nonlinear partial differential
equations are of fundamental importance. These and other aspects of nonlinear equations led me into
one of the most diverse and active subjects of modern mathematics
