We apply the G′/G2-expansion method to construct exact solutions of three interesting problems in physics and nanobiosciences which are modeled by nonlinear partial differential equations (NPDEs). The problems to which we want to obtain exact solutions consist of the Benny-Luke equation, the equation of nanoionic currents along microtubules, and the generalized Hirota-Satsuma coupled KdV system. The obtained exact solutions of the problems via using the method are categorized into three types including trigonometric solutions, exponential solutions, and rational solutions. The applications of the method are simple, efficient, and reliable by means of using a symbolically computational package. Applying the proposed method to the problems, we have some innovative exact solutions which are different from the ones obtained using other methods employed previously.

The major purpose of this article is to seek for exact traveling wave solutions of the nonlinear space-time Sharma–Tasso–Olver equation in the sense of conformable derivatives. The novel $\left(\frac{G^{\prime }}{G}\right)$ -expansion method and the generalized Kudryashov method, which are analytical, powerful, and reliable methods, are used to solve the equation via a fractional complex transformation. The exact solutions of the equation, obtained using the novel $\left(\frac{G^{\prime }}{G}\right)$ -expansion method, can be classified in terms of hyperbolic, trigonometric, and rational function solutions. Applying the generalized Kudryashov method to the equation, we obtain explicit exact solutions expressed as fractional solutions of the exponential functions. The exact solutions obtained using the two methods represent some physical behaviors such as a singularly periodic traveling wave solution and a singular multiple-soliton solution. Some selected solutions of the equation are graphically portrayed including 3-D, 2-D, and contour plots. As a result, some innovative exact solutions of the equation are produced via the methods, and they are not the same as the ones obtained using other techniques utilized previously.

In this paper, the $(G^{\prime }/G,1/G)$ -expansion method is applied to acquire some new, exact solutions of certain interesting, nonlinear, fractional-order partial differential equations arising in mathematical physics. The considered equations comprise the time-fractional, (2+1)-dimensional extended quantum Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation, and the space-time-fractional generalized Hirota-Satsuma coupled Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) system in the sense of the conformable fractional derivative. Applying traveling wave transformations to the equations, we obtain the corresponding ordinary differential equations in which each of them provides a system of nonlinear algebraic equations when the method is used. As a result, many analytical exact solutions obtained of these equations are expressed in terms of hyperbolic function solutions, trigonometric function solutions, and rational function solutions. The graphical representations of some obtained solutions are demonstrated to better understand their physical features, including bell-shaped solitary wave solutions, singular soliton solutions, solitary wave solutions of kink type, and so on. The method is very efficient, powerful, and reliable for solving the proposed equations and other nonlinear fractional partial differential equations with the aid of a symbolic software package.

The core objective of this article is to generate novel exact traveling wave solutions of two nonlinear conformable evolution equations, namely, the $(2+1)$-dimensional conformable time integro-differential Sawada–Kotera (SK) equation and the $(3+1)$-dimensional conformable time modified KdV–Zakharov–Kuznetsov (mKdV–ZK) equation using the $(G^{\prime }/G^2)$-expansion method. These two equations associate with conformable partial derivatives with respect to time which the former equation is firstly proposed in the form of the conformable integro-differential equation. To the best of the authors’ knowledge, the two equations have not been solved by means of the $(G^{\prime }/G^2)$-expansion method for their exact solutions. As a result, some exact solutions of the equations expressed in terms of trigonometric, exponential, and rational function solutions are reported here for the first time. Furthermore, graphical representations of some selected solutions, plotted using some specific sets of the parameter values and the fractional orders, reveal certain physical features such as a singular single-soliton solution and a doubly periodic wave solution. These kinds of the solutions are usually discovered in natural phenomena. In particular, the soliton solution, which is a solitary wave whose amplitude, velocity, and shape are conserved after a collision with another soliton for a nondissipative system, arises ubiquitously in fluid mechanics, fiber optics, atomic physics, water waves, and plasmas. The method, along with the help of symbolic software packages, can be efficiently and simply used to solve the proposed problems for trustworthy and accurate exact solutions. Consequently, the method could be employed to determine some new exact solutions for other nonlinear conformable evolution equations.

The Benney-Luke equation has contributed to studying the propagation of the water wave surfaces. This paper illustrates the (G’/G,1/G)-method to obtain the solutions of the Benney-Luke equation and an extension of the Benney-Luke equation. The new types of solutions are also constructed to gather the performance and visualization in three dimensions for observing the behaviors. The solutions are found in the expressions of hyperbolic functions giving the general performance by selecting arbitrary constants.

We investigate methods for obtaining exact solutions of the (3 + 1)‐dimensional nonlinear space‐time fractional Jimbo‐Miwa equation in the sense of the modified Riemann‐Liouville derivative. The methods employed to analytically solve the equation are the (G^′/G, 1/G)‐expansion method and the novel (G^′/G)‐expansion method. To the best of our knowledge, there are no researchers who have applied these methods to obtain exact solutions of the equation. The application of the methods is simple, elegant, efficient, and trustworthy. In particular, applying the novel (G^′/G)‐expansion method to the equation, we obtain more exact solutions than using other existing methods such as the (G^′/G)‐expansion method and the exp(−Φ(ξ))‐expansion method. The exact solutions of the equation, obtained using the two methods, can be categorized in terms of hyperbolic, trigonometric, and rational functions. Some of the results obtained by the two methods are new and reported here for the first time. In addition, the obtained exact explicit solutions of the equation characterize many physical meanings such as soliton solitary wave solutions, periodic wave solutions, and singular multiple‐soliton solutions.
