Complexiton solutions of the Korteweg–de Vries equation with self-consistent sources

Abstract

Abstract Complexiton solutions to the Korteweg–de Vires equation with self-consistent sources are presented. The basic technique adopted is the Darboux transformation. The resulting solutions provide evidence that soliton equations with self-consistent sources can have complexiton solutions, in addition to soliton, positon and negaton solutions. This also implies that soliton equations with self-consistent sources possess some kind of analytical characteristics that linear differential equations possess and brings ideas toward classification of exact explicit solutions of nonlinear integrable differential equations.
