New compacton solutions and solitary wave solutions of fully nonlinear generalized Camassa-Holm equations

In this paper, we introduce the fully nonlinear generalized Camassa-Holm equation C(m, n, p) and by using four direct ansatzs, we obtain abundant solutions: compactons (solutions with the absence of infinite wings), solitary patterns solutions having infinite slopes or cups, solitary waves and singular periodic wave solutions and obtain kink compacton solutions and nonsymmetry compacton solutions. We also study other forms of fully nonlinear generalized Camassa-Holm equation, and their compacton solutions are governed by linear equations. (C) 2003 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
