Nonlinear dynamics of DNA - Riccati generalized solitary wave solutions

  • 1. Department of Physics, Panjab University, Chandigarh-160014 (India)

Description

We study the nonlinear dynamics of DNA, for longitudinal and transverse motions, in the framework of the microscopic model of Peyrard and Bishop. The coupled nonlinear partial differential equations for dynamics of DNA model, which consists of two long elastic homogeneous strands connected with each other by an elastic membrane, have been solved for solitary wave solution which is further generalized using Riccati parameterized factorization method.
