Description

The Lax-Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation is derived from the Lax fifth order equation, which is an important mathematical model in fluid physics and quantum field theory. Symmetry reductions of the Lax-Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation are studied by the means of the Clarkson-Kruskal direct method and the corresponding reduction equations are solved directly with arbitrary constants and functions.
