Exact and explicit solutions to some nonlinear evolution equations by utilizing the (G'/G)-expansion method

Abstract

In this paper, we demonstrate the effectiveness of the so-called (G′/G)-expansion method by examining some nonlinear evolution equations with physical interest. Our work is motivated by the fact that the (G′/G)-expansion method provides not only more general forms of solutions but also periodic and solitary waves. If we set the parameters in the obtained wider set of solutions as special values, then some previously known solutions can be recovered. The method appears to be easier and faster by means of a symbolic computation system.
