Wave-breaking phenomena and global existence for the weakly dissipative generalized Novikov equation

In this paper, we mainly study several problems on the weakly dissipative generalized Novikov equation. We first establish the local well-posedness of solutions. We then give the precise blow-up scenarios for the generalized Novikov equation provided the momentum density associated with their initial data changes sign, and obtain the blow-up rate of blow-up solutions. Finally, we prove that the equation has a global solution provided the momentum density associated with their initial data do not change sign.

Short wave limit of the Novikov equation and its integrable semi-discretizations

In this paper, we are concerned with one of the generalized short wave equations proposed by Hone et al. (Lett. Math. Phys 108 927 (2018)). We show that the derivative form of this equation can be viewed as a short wave limit of the Novikov (sw-Novikov) equation. Furthermore, this generalized short wave equation and its derivative form are found to be connected to period 3 reduction of two-dimensional CKP(BKP)-Toda hierarchy, same as the short wave limit of the Depasperis-Procesi (sw-DP) equation. We propose a two-component short wave equation which contain the sw-Novikov equation and sw-DP equation as two special cases. As a main result, we construct two types of integrable semi-discretizations via Hirota’s bilinear method and provide multi-soliton solution to the semi-discrete sw-Novikov equation.

On the Solutions of the b-Family of Novikov Equation

In this paper, we study the symmetric travelling wave solutions of the b-family of the Novikov equation. We show that the b-family of the Novikov equation can provide symmetric travelling wave solutions, such as peakon, kink and smooth soliton solutions. In particular, the single peakon, two-peakon, stationary kink, anti-kink, two-kink, two-anti-kink, bell-shape soliton and hat-shape soliton solutions are presented in an explicit formula.

The dispersionless Veselov–Novikov equation: symmetries, exact solutions, and conservation laws

We study symmetries, invariant solutions, and conservation laws for the dispersionless Veselov–Novikov equation. The emphasis is placed on cases when the odes involved in description of the invariant solutions are integrable by quadratures. Then we find some non-invariant solutions, in particular, solutions that are polynomials of an arbitrary degree $$N \ge 3$$ N ≥ 3 with respect to the spatial variables. Finally we compute all conservation laws that are associated to cosymmetries of second order.

Peakons of Novikov Equation via the Homotopy Analysis Method

The problem of the peakon and antipeakon solutions of the Novikov equation including the term ωux is studied. It is well known that, when ω=0, the Novikov equation admits peakon and antipeakon solutions. In this study, it is shown via the homotopy analysis method that, even in the case where ω≠0, the Novikov equation also admits peakon and antipeakon solutions.

SOLITON DEFORMATION OF INVERTED CATENOID

The minimal surface (see [1]) is determined using the Weierstrass representation in three-dimensional space. The solution of the Dirac equation [2] in terms of spinors coincides with the representations of this surface with conservation of isothermal coordinates. The equation represented through the Dirac operator, which is included in the Manakov’s L, A, B triple [3] as equivalent to the modified Veselov-Novikov equation (mVN) [4]. The potential 𝑈 of the Dirac operator is the potential of representing a minimal surface. New solutions of the mVN equation are constructed using the pre-known potentials of the Dirac operator and this algorithm is said to be Moutard transformations [5]. Firstly, the geometric meaning of these transformations which found in [6], [7], gives us the definition of the inversion of the minimal surface, further after finding the exact solutions of the mVN equation, we can represent the inverted surfaces. And these representations of the new potential determine the soliton deformation [8], [9]. In 2014, blowing-up solutions to the mVN equation were obtained using a rigid translation of the initial Enneper surface in [6]. Further results were obtained for the second-order Enneper surface [10]. Now the soliton deformation of an inverted catenoid is found by smooth translation along the second coordinate axis. In this paper, in order to determine catenoid inversions, it is proposed to find holomorphic objects as Gauss maps and height differential [11]; the soliton deformation of the inverted catenoid is obtained; particular solution of modified Karteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation is found that give some representation of KdV surface [12],[13].
