Exact hyperbolic, trigonometric and rational travelling wave solutions to the (2+1)-dimensional Generalized ZakharovKuznetsov (GZK) equation via the extended generalized Riccati equation mapping method are presented in this paper. The twenty one travelling wave solutions obtained were verified by putting them back into the GZK equation with the aid of Mathematica. This shows that the extended generalized Riccati equation mapping method is a powerful tool for finding exact solution to nonlinear partial differential equations in physics, mathematics and other applications.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
