Description

In this Letter, an algorithm is devised for using the ((G')/G )-expansion method to solve nonlinear differential-difference equations. With the aid of symbolic computation, we choose two discrete nonlinear lattice equations to illustrate the validity and advantages of the algorithm. As a result, hyperbolic function solutions and trigonometric function solutions with parameters are obtained. When the parameters are taken as special values, some known solutions including kink-type solitary wave solution and singular travelling wave solution are recovered. It is shown that the proposed algorithm is effective and can be used for many other nonlinear differential-difference equations in mathematical physics
