A semidiscrete Gardner equation

Abstract

We construct the Darboux transformations, exact solutions, and infinite number of conservation laws for a semidiscrete Gardner equation. A special class of solutions of the semidiscrete equation, called table-top solitons, are given. The dynamical properties of these solutions are also discussed.

Keywords
