Layeni, O. P. A new rational auxiliary equation method and exact solutions of a generalized Zakharov system. (English) Zbl 1180.35445 Appl. Math. Comput. 215, No. 8, 2901-2907 (2009). Summary: A new rational auxiliary equation method for obtaining exact traveling wave solutions of constant coefficient nonlinear partial differential equations of evolution is proposed. Its effectiveness is evinced by obtaining exact solutions of a generalized Zakharov system, some of which are new. It is shown that the \(G'/G\) and the generalized projective Riccati expansion methods are special cases of the auxiliary equation method. Further, due the solutions obtained, four other new and practicable rational methods are deduced.
