Abstract
A method for solving the initial-value problem of the Korteweg-deVries equation is presented which is applicable to initial data that approach a constant sufficiently rapidly as $|x|\ensuremath{\rightarrow}\ensuremath{\infty}$. The method can be used to predict exactly the "solitons," or solitary waves, which emerge from arbitrary initial conditions. Solutions that describe any finite number of solitons in interaction can be expressed in closed form.

Application of the method of simplest equation for obtaining exact traveling-wave solutions for two classes of model PDEs from ecology and population dynamics

TL;DR: In this paper, the traveling-wave solutions of two classes of equations, namely reaction-diffusion and reaction-telegraph, were obtained by the modified method of simplest equation for the cases when the simplest equation is the equation of Bernoulli or Riccati.
