Study on soliton behaviors of the complex nonlinear Fokas–Lenells equation utilizing different methods

Abstract

In this paper, we study the Fokas–Lenells equation, which is a derivation form of the nonlinear Schrödinger equation and can be used to describe nonlinearity in the propagation of optical pulses. To seek solutions for this nonlinearity, the Logistic method has been proposed in order to drive acceptable and understandable results regarding physical meaning. This method is defined based on the summation of an ordinary differential equation. Moreover, for further study, the Bernoulli [Formula: see text]-expansion method is used by considering hypothetical solutions as a function of the Bernoulli equation. Subsequently, solutions of the Fokas–Lenells equation are successfully acquired, displaying efficient results in hyperbolic, trigonometric, and exponential equations. The importance of these results appears in the definition of the wave function under the consideration of the appropriate coefficients. Hence, computer simulation is used for better understanding of the generated results. The dynamic behaviors of these solutions are demonstrated in 3D graphs, contour maps, and line plots, under applying various parameters, solutions of the waves show different soliton behaviors, including bright-dark, bright, and breather solitons. The results indicate that the exerted methods are novel, reliable, and effective approaches which can be employed in a wide range of nonlinear differential equations. These methods and their begotten results are far from the complexities of mathematical structures and therefore go beyond previous efforts in the literature.
