We will study the existence and stability of periodic travelling-wave solutions of the nonlinear one-dimensional Boussinesq-type equationΦtt−Φxx+aΦxxxx−bΦxxtt+ΦtΦxx+2ΦxΦxt=0. Periodic travelling-wave solutions with an arbitrary fundamental periodT0will be built by using Jacobian elliptic functions. Stability (orbital) of these solutions by periodic disturbances with periodT0will be a consequence of the general stability criteria given by M. Grillakis, J. Shatah, and W. Strauss. A complete study of the periodic eigenvalue problem associated to the Lame equation is set up.

By using the method of dynamical system, the exact travelling wave solutions of the coupled nonlinear Schrödinger-Boussinesq equations are studied. Based on this method, the bounded exact travelling wave solutions are obtained which contain solitary wave solutions and periodic travelling wave solutions. The solitary wave solutions and periodic travelling wave solutions are expressed by the hyperbolic functions and the Jacobian elliptic functions, respectively. The results show that the presented findings improve the related previous conclusions. Furthermore, the numerical simulations of the solitary wave solutions and the periodic travelling wave solutions are given to show the correctness of our results.

In this paper we adapt the work of M. Grillakis, J. Shatah, and W. Strauss, or J. Bona, P. Souganidis and W. Strauss to the periodic case in spaces having the mean zero property in order to establish the orbital stability/instability of periodic travelling wave solutions of a generalized Korteweg-de Vries type equation.

This paper is concerned with instability of periodic travelling wave solutions of the modified Boussinesq equation. Periodic travelling wave solutions with a fixed fundamental periodLwill be constructed by using Jacobi's elliptic functions. It will be shown that these solutions, calleddnoidal waves, are nonlinearly unstable in the energy space for a range of their speeds of propagation and periods.

The qualitative theory of differential equations is applied to the osmosis K(2, 2) equation. The parametric conditions of existence of the smooth periodic travelling wave solutions are given. We show that the solution map is not uniformly continuous by using the theory of Himonas and Misiolek. The proof relies on a construction of smooth periodic travelling waves with small amplitude.

The existence of nonzero periodic travelling wave solutions for a general discrete nonlinear Schrödinger equation (DNLS) on one-dimensional lattices is proved. The DNLS features a general nonlinear term and variable range of interactions going beyond the usual nearest-neighbour interaction. The problem of the existence of travelling wave solutions is converted into a fixed point problem for an operator on some appropriate function space which is solved by means of Schauder’s Fixed Point Theorem.

We present the mixed dn-sn method for finding periodic wave solutions of some nonlinear wave equations. Introducing an appropriate transformation, we extend this method to a special type of nonlinear equations and construct their solutions, which are not expressible as polynomials in the Jacobi elliptic functions. The obtained solutions include the well known kink-type and bell-type solutions as a limiting cases. Also, some new travelling wave solutions are found. - PACS: 02.30.Jr; 03.40.Kf
