Abstract

In this paper, we applied the Exp-function method to solve the Kawahara equation. This method can be used to obtain new exact solutions and periodic solutions with parameters are obtained. It is shown that the Exp-function method, with the help of symbolic computation, provides a very effective and powerful (mathematical tools) for discrete nonlinear evolution equations in mathematical physics.
