2-soliton-solution of the Novikov-Veselov equation

Abstract

Based on a superposition method recently proposed to obtain 1-solitary wave solutions of the KdV-Burgers equation (Yuanxi and Jiashi, 2005, International Journal of Theoretical Physics 44, 293-301), we show that this method can also be used to find a 2-solitary wave solution of the Novikov-Veselov equation. Thus, it seems that the method of Yuanxi and Jiashi in general is not restricted to constructing 1-solitary wave solutions of nonlinear wave and evolution equations (NLWEEs).
