The twin properties of rogue waves and homoclinic solutions for some nonlinear wave equations

  • Wei Tan EMAIL logo and Zhao-Yang Yin

Abstract

The parameter limit method on the basis of Hirota’s bilinear method is proposed to construct the rogue wave solutions for nonlinear partial differential equations (NLPDEs). Some real and complex differential equations are used as concrete examples to illustrate the effectiveness and correctness of the described method. The rogue waves and homoclinic solutions of different structures are obtained and simulated by three-dimensional graphics, respectively. More importantly, we find that rogue wave solutions and homoclinic solutions appear in pairs. That is to say, for some NLPDEs, if there is a homoclinic solution, then there must be a rogue wave solution. The twin phenomenon of rogue wave solutions and homoclinic solutions of a class of NLPDEs is discussed.
