Journal of the Physical Society of Japan, vol. 82, pp. 044004-1-044004-4, 2013.
AbstractRecently the unified method for finding traveling wave solutions of nonlinear evolution equations was proposed by one of the authors (HIAG). It was shown that, this method unifies all the methods being used to find these solutions. In this paper, we extend this method to find a class of formal exact solutions to Korteweg–de Vries equation with space dependent coefficients.

"On the Variational Approach for Analyzing the Stability of Solutions of Evolution Equations",
KYUNGPOOK Math. J., vol. 83, pp. 661-680, 2013.
AbstractKYUNGPOOK Math. J.The eigenvalue problems arise in the analysis of stability of traveling waves or rest state solutions are currently dealt with, using the Evans function method. In the literature, it had been shown that, use of this method is not straightforward even in very simple examples. Here an extended \variational" method to solve the eigenvalue problem for the higher order dierential equations is suggested. The extended method is matched to the well known variational iteration method. The criteria for validity of the eigenfunctions and eigenvalues obtained is presented. Attention is focused to nd eigenvalue and eigenfunction solutions of the Kuramoto-Slivashinsky and (K[p,q]) equation.
