Artificial perturbation for solving the Korteweg-de Vries equation

Abstract

A perturbation method is introduced in the context of dynamical system for solving the nonlinear Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation. Best efficiency is obtained for few perturbative corrections. It is shown that, the question of convergence of this approach is completely guaranteed here, because a limited number of term included in the series can describe a sufficient exact solution. Comparisons with the solutions of the quintic spline, and finite difference are presented.
