Abstract
In the present study, the optimality approach is applied to find the exact solution of the Landau-Ginzburg-Higgs Equation (LGHE) using new transformations. This method is a direct algebraic method for obtaining exact solutions of nonlinear differential equations. We find suitable solutions of the LGHE in terms of elliptic Jacobi functions by applying transformations of basic functions. Exact solutions of the equations are obtained with the help of symbolic software (Maple) which allows the computation of equations with parameter constants. It is exposed that PIM is influential, suitable, and shortest and offers an exact solution of LGHE.
1. Introduction
Exact solutions of nonlinear partial differential equations play an important role in nonlinear science, especially in nonlinear physical science because they can carry substantial physical information and more understanding into the physical aspects of the problem. [1]. Recently, several methods have been used to find exact solutions of nonlinear model equations like Cahn-Allen equation [2], -dimensional Date-Jimbo-Kashiwara-Miwa (DJKM) equation [3], Newell-Whitehead-Segel (NWS) equations [4], the Chaffee–Infante equation [5], DNA Peyrard–Bishop equation [6], Burger’s equation [7], the -dimensional nonlinear Sharma–Tasso–Olver equation [8], and Ablowitz-Kaup-Newell-Segur water wave equation [9]. Recently, a number of concrete techniques have been recognized for finding accurate and comprehensible solutions of nonlinear physical models with the help of computer algebra, such as Maple, MATLAB, and Mathematica. These include power ondex method [7, 9], lie symmetry groups [3, 4], new extended direct algebraic method, and the generalized Kudryashov method [10].
The Landau-Ginzburg-Higgs (LGH) equation was introduced by Lev Devidovich Landau and Vitaly Lazarevich Ginzburg having very wide range of applications in radially inhomogeneous plasma having a constant phase relation of ion-cyclotron waves. It demonstrated superconductivity and unidirectional wave propagation in nonlinear media [11]. Several approaches have been adopted to attain the close form and approximate solutions of the LGH equation. Khuri has investigated the close form solutions of LGH, Klein–Gordon, and Sine–Gordon equations by using unified approach [12]. In [13], the new modification method is proved by solving LGH equation and Cahn-Allen equation.
In this paper, we will examine the solutions of Landau-Ginzburg-Higgs equation by using polynomial and elementary functions. In Section 2, we designate temporarily the PIM and explain index powers by taking first partial derivative of dependent function with respect to time. In Section 3, we apply this method to the LGH equation by introducing new transformations. The PDE (1) is reduced in different form of differential equations. These ODEs are solved by using the elliptic JacobiSN (, ) function and its differential equation, see (10).
2. Power Index Method
Considering the PDE (1), and we want to find its exact solution, we introduce the variables as or and the function transforms or
Now, we differentiate (4) according to PDE (1), and we can find the relation of indexes of and in each term as if we choose .
We observe the coefficient functions of and its derivative terms so that the PDE equation may be changed into ODE. In (6), the coefficient function of is , and the coefficient function of is . The optimal indices and of the independent variables are chosen such that only two indices are varied at a time and the rest are fixed. We continue this process with different indices and so that we find all well-defined transformation. Our objective in this method is to get the required ODE.
Solve the ODE (7) by using computerized symbolic package like Maple. The exact solution of (1) can be obtained from (4) to (7) after replacing an unknown function . Figure 1 shows the procedure of transformation of PDE (1) to ODE (7).
