✦ Synopsis
We study the (2 þ 1)-dimensional model proposed by Kadomtsev and Petviashvili (KP) to describe slowly varying nonlinear waves in a dispersive medium. Applying an appropriate Lie transformation and following the method introduced by Tajiri et al., the KP equation is reduced to a one-dimensional equation, that is, to a certain version of the Boussinesq equation (BqE). Then, we solve the BqE by the Hirota method, and finally we use the inverse transformation in order to obtain de KP solutions. We Analyze some remarkable properties of the solutions found in this work.

The sine-Gordon equation or the sinh-Gordon equation are related to the Boiti-Leon-Pempinelli (BLP) equation by certain transformation [Inv. Probl. 3 (1987) 37; Theor. Math. Phys. 100 (1994) 1075]. In this paper, we construct explicit exact solutions for the BLP equation by using a further extended
We consider certain Hamiltonian systems with many particles interacting through a potential whose range is large in comparison with the typical distance between neighbouring particles. It is shown that the empirical processes of the positions and the velocities respectively converge to solutions of
