Optimal system and dynamics of optical soliton solutions for the Schamel KdV equation

Abstract

Abstract In this research, we investigate the integrability properties of the Schamel–Korteweg–de Vries (S-KdV) equation, which is important for understanding the effect of electron trapping in the nonlinear interaction of ion-acoustic waves. Using the optimal system, we come over reduced ordinary differential equations (ODEs). To deal with reduced ODEs for this problem, Lie symmetry analysis is combined with the modified auxiliary equation (MAE) procedure and the generalized Jacobi elliptic function expansion (JEF) method. The analytical solutions reported here are novel and have a wide range of applications in mathematical physics.
