Solitary-wave solutions of the Degasperis–Procesi equation by means of the homotopy analysis method

Abstract: The homotopy analysis method is applied to the Degasperis-Procesi equation in order to find analytic approximations to the known exact solitary-wave solutions for the solitary peakon wave and the family of solitary smooth-hump waves. It is demonstrated that the approximate solutions agree well with the exact solutions. This provides further evidence that the homotopy analysis method is a powerful tool for finding excellent approximations to nonlinear solitary waves.

“…Unlike perturbative and non‐perturbative methods it also gives us huge freedom to choose the proper initial guesses and the linear operators to approximate nonlinear problems. This method has already been successfully applied by several researchers to various interesting problems in science and engineering [25–31].…”

“…More recently developed techniques that make use of computer algebra software include the simplest equation method and its extensions [ 15 , 17 ], the equivalent -extension and tanh-extension methods [ 16 , 40 ], and the homotopy analysis method [ 1 ]. A novel adaptation of the -expansion technique is used to construct solitary wave solutions to the dimensional Konopelchenko–Dubrovsky and Kadomtsev–Petviashvili equations in [ 5 ].…”

“…Probably the first papers where HAM was applied to the study of nonlinear waves were [31,32], in which solutions to the problem of progressive waves in deep water and solutions for periodic waves for the mKDV equation, respectively, were derived. Ever since, HAM has been successfully applied to obtain soliton and/or peakon solutions of various important nonlinear PDEs including but not limited to the Fitzhugh-Nagumo equation [33], the CH equation [34,35], a 5th order KdV equation [36], and the DP equation [37,38].…”
