The Interactions of N-Soliton Solutions for the Generalized (2+1)‎-Dimensional Variable-Coefficient Fifth-Order KdV Equation

Abstract EN

A generalized (2+1)-dimensional variable-coefficient KdV equation is introduced, which can describe the interaction between a water wave and gravity-capillary waves better than the (1+1)-dimensional KdV equation.

The N-soliton solutions of the (2+1)-dimensional variable-coefficient fifth-order KdV equation are obtained via the Bell-polynomial method.

Then the soliton fusion, fission, and the pursuing collision are analyzed depending on the influence of the coefficient eAij; when eAij=0, the soliton fusion and fission will happen; when eAij≠0, the pursuing collision will occur.

Moreover, the Bäcklund transformation of the equation is gotten according to the binary Bell-polynomial and the period wave solutions are given by applying the Riemann theta function method.
