Extracting solitary solutions of the nonlinear Kaup–Kupershmidt (KK) equation by analytical method

Abstract

Abstract Finding analytical solutions for nonlinear partial differential equations is physically meaningful. The Kaup-Kupershmidt (KK) equation is studied in this article. The KK equation is of fifth order, such that several solitary solutions are obtained. In this article, however, the modified auxiliary function approach is applied to this model to find solitary solutions. These solutions are written in terms of Jacobi functions. Therefore, the obtained solutions can be implemented graphically to show different patterns for appropriate parameters.
