Darboux Transformations and N-soliton Solutions of Two (2+1)-Dimensional Nonlinear Equations

Two Darboux transformations of the(2+1)-dimensional Caudrey–Dodd–Gibbon–Kotera–Sawaka(CDGKS)equation and(2+1)-dimensional modified Korteweg-de Vries(mKdV) equation are constructed through the Darboux matrix method, respectively. N-soliton solutions of these two equations are presented by applying the Darboux transformations N times. The right-going bright single-soliton solution and interactions of two and three-soliton overtaking collisions of the(2+1)-dimensional CDGKS equation are studied. By choosing different seed solutions, the right-going bright and left-going dark single-soliton solutions, the interactions of two and three-soliton overtaking collisions, and kink soliton solutions of the(2+1)-dimensional mKdV equation are investigated. The results can be used to illustrate the interactions of water waves in shallow water.
