Soliton solutions of a generalized discrete KdV equation

Abstract

We investigate the multi-soliton solutions to the generalized discrete KdV equation. In some cases a soliton with smaller amplitude moves faster than that with larger amplitude unlike the soliton solutions of the KdV equation. This phenomenon is intuitively understood from its ultradiscrete limit, where the system turns to the box ball system with a carrier. KEYWORDS: soliton, integrable equation, nonlinear system, discrete KdV equation, cellular automaton (v2: Final form to appear in J. Phys. Soc. Jpn.)
