“…Nonlinear wave phenomena of dispersion, dissipation, diffusion, reaction and convection are very important in nonlinear wave equations. In recent decades, many effective methods have been established to obtain exact solutions of nonlinear PDEs, such as the inverse scattering transform [1], the Hirota method [2], the truncated Painlevé expansion method [3], the Bäcklund transform method [1,4,5], the exp-function method [6][7][8], the simplest equation method [9,10], the Weierstrass elliptic function method [11], the Jacobi elliptic function method [12][13][14], the tanh-function method [15,16], the ( / G) G′ expansion method [17][18][19][20][21][22], the modified simple equation method [23][24][25][26], the Kudryashov method [27][28][29], the multiple exp-function algorithm method [30,31], the transformed rational function method [32], the Frobenius decomposition technique [33], the local fractional variation iteration method [34], the local fractional series expansion The objective of this article is to use the Bäcklund transformation of the generalized Riccati equation to construct new exact traveling wave solutions of the following nonlinear Kolmogorov-Petrovskii-Piskunov (KPP) equation [22,26,46]. [22] have discussed Equation (1.1) using the ( / G) G′ -expansion method and found its ex...…”
