Abstract

In this paper, a new method, called Exp-function method, is proposed to seek solitary solutions, periodic solutions and compacton-like solutions of nonlinear differential equations. The modified KdV equation and Dodd–Bullough–Mikhailov equation are chosen to illustrate the effectiveness and convenience of the suggested method.
