Abstract

In this paper, we consider an extended Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation. Using the consistent Riccati expansion (CRE) method of Lou, the extended KdV equation is proved to be CRE solvable in only two distinct cases. These two CRE solvable models are the KdV-Lax and KdV-Sawada-Kotera (KdV-SK) equations. In addition, applying the nonauto-Bäcklund transformations which are provided by the CRE method, we present the explicit construction for soliton-cnoidal wave interaction solutions which represent a soliton propagating on a cnoidal periodic wave background in the KdV-Lax and KdV-SK equations, respectively.
