Effect of the nonlinear dispersive coefficient on time-dependent variable coefficient soliton solutions of the Kolmogorov-Petrovsky-Piskunov model arising in biological and chemical science
Abstract
In this article, we study the soliton solutions with a time-dependent variable coefficient to the Kolmogorov-Petrovsky-Piskunov (KPP) model. At first, this model was used as the genetics model for the spread of an advantageous gene through a population, but it has also been used as a number of physics, biological, and chemical models. The enhanced modified simple equation technique applies to get the time-dependent variable coefficient soliton solutions from the KPP model. The obtained solutions provide diverse, exact solutions for the different functions of the time-dependent variable coefficient. For the special value of the constants, we get the kink, anti-kink shape, the interaction of kink, anti-kink, and singularities, the interaction of instanton and kink shape, instanton shape, kink, and bell interaction, anti-kink and bell interaction, kink and singular solitons, anti-kink and singular solitons, the interaction of kink and singular, and the interaction of anti-kink and singular solutions to diverse nature wave functions as time-dependent variable coefficients. The presented phenomena are clarified in three-dimension, contour, and two-dimension plots. The obtained wave patterns are powerfully exaggerated by the variable coefficient wave transformation and connected variable parameters. The effect of second-order and third-order nonlinear dispersive coefficients is also explored in 2D plots.
