Quasi-periodic Waves and Solitary Waves to a Generalized KdV-Caudrey-Dodd-Gibbon Equation from Fluid Dynamics

Abstract

In this paper, a generalized KdV-Caudrey-Dodd-Gibbon (KdV-CDG) equation is investigated, which describes certain situations in the fluid mechanics, ocean dynamics and plasma physics. By using Bell polynomials, a lucid and systematic approach is proposed to systematically study its Hirota's bilinear form and $N$-soliton solution, respectively. Furthermore, based on the Riemann theta function, the one-quasi- and two-quasi-periodic wave solutions are also constructed. Finally, an asymptotic relation of the quasi-periodic wave solutions are strictly analyzed to reveal the relations between quasi-periodic wave solutions and soliton solutions.
