In this study, we focus on solving the nonlinear time-fractional Hirota–Satsuma coupled Korteweg–de Vries (KdV) and modified Korteweg–de Vries (MKdV) equations, using the Yang transform iterative method (YTIM). This method combines the Yang transform with a new iterative scheme to construct reliable and efficient solutions. Readers can understand the procedures clearly, since the implementation of Yang transform directly transforms fractional derivative sections into algebraic terms in the given problems. The new iterative scheme is applied to generate series solutions for the provided problems. The fractional derivatives are considered in the Caputo sense. To validate the proposed approach, two numerical examples are analysed and compared with exact solutions, as well as with the results obtained from the fractional reduced differential transform method (FRDTM) and the q-homotopy analysis transform method (q-HATM). The comparisons, presented through both tables and graphical illustrations, confirm the enhanced accuracy and reliability of the proposed method. Moreover, the effect of varying the fractional order is explored, demonstrating convergence of the solution as the order approaches an integer value. Importantly, the time-fractional Hirota–Satsuma coupled KdV and modified Korteweg–de Vries (MKdV) equations investigated in this work are not only of theoretical and computational interest but also possess significant implications for achieving global sustainability goals. Specifically, these equations contribute to the Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) “Life Below Water” by offering advanced modelling capabilities for understanding wave propagation and ocean dynamics, thus supporting marine ecosystem research and management. It is also relevant to SDG “Climate Action” as it aids in the simulation of environmental phenomena crucial to climate change analysis and mitigation. Additionally, the development and application of innovative mathematical modelling techniques align with “Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure” promoting advanced computational tools for use in ocean engineering, environmental monitoring, and other infrastructure-related domains.

The present paper examines a novel exact solution to nonlinear fractional partial differential equations (FDEs) through the Sardar sub-equation method (SSEM) coupled with Jumarie’s Modified Riemann–Liouville derivative (JMRLD). We take the (3+1)-dimensional space–time fractional modified Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) -Zakharov-Kuznetsov (ZK) equation as a case study, which describes some intricate phenomena of wave behavior in plasma physics and fluid dynamics. With the implementation of SSEM, we yield new solitary wave solutions and explicitly examine the role of the fractional-order parameter in the dynamics of the solutions. In addition, the sensitivity analysis of the results is conducted in the Galilean transformation in order to ensure that the obtained results are valid and have physical significance. Besides expanding the toolbox of analytical methods to address high-dimensional nonlinear FDEs, the proposed method helps to better understand how fractional-order dynamics affect the nonlinear wave phenomenon. The results are compared to known methods and a discussion about their possible applications and limitations is given. The results show the effectiveness and flexibility of SSEM along with JMRLD in forming new categories of exact solutions to nonlinear fractional models. Full article

In the field of nonlinear mathematical physics, Ablowitz et al.’s algorithm has recently made significant progress in the inverse scattering transform (IST) of fractional-order nonlinear evolution equations (fNLEEs). However, the solved fNLEEs are all constant-coefficient models. In this study, we establish a fractional-order KdV (fKdV)-type equation with variable coefficients and show that the IST is capable of solving the variable-coefficient fKdV (vcfKdV)-type equation. Firstly, according to Ablowitz et al.’s fractional-order algorithm and the anomalous dispersion relation, we derive the vcfKdV-type equation contained in a new class of integrable fNLEEs, which can be used to describe the dispersion transport in fractal media. Secondly, we reconstruct the potential function based on the time-dependent scattering data, and rewrite the explicit form of the vcfKdV-type equation using the completeness of eigenfunctions. Thirdly, under the assumption of reflectionless potential, we obtain an explicit expression for the fractional n-soliton solution of the vcfKdV-type equation. Finally, as specific examples, we study the spatial structures of the obtained fractional one- and two-soliton solutions. We find that the fractional soliton solutions and their linear, X-shaped, parabolic, sine/cosine, and semi-sine/semi-cosine trajectories formed on the coordinate plane have power–law dependence on discrete spectral parameters and are also affected by variable coefficients, which may have research value for the related hyperdispersion transport in fractional-order nonlinear media.

This article extends the celebrated Riemann–Hilbert (RH) method equipped with mixed spectrum to a new integrable system of three-component coupled time-varying coefficient complex mKdV equations (ccmKdVEs for short) generated by the mixed spectral equations (msEs). Firstly, the ccmKdVEs and the msEs for generating the ccmKdVEs are proposed. Then, based on the msEs, a solvable RH problem related to the ccmKdVEs is constructed. By using the constructed RH problem with mixed spectrum, scattering data for the recovery of potential formulae are further determined. In the case of reflectionless coefficients, explicit N-soliton solutions of the ccmKdVEs are ultimately obtained. Taking N equal to 1 and 2 as examples, this paper reveals that the spatiotemporal solution structures with time-varying nonlinear dynamic characteristics localized in the ccmKdVEs is attributed to the multiple selectivity of mixed spectrum and time-varying coefficients. In addition, to further highlight the application of our work in fractional calculus, by appropriately selecting these time-varying coefficients, the ccmKdVEs are transformed into a conformable time-fractional order system of three-component coupled complex mKdV equations. Based on the obtained one-soliton solutions, a set of initial values are assigned to the transformed fractional order system, and the N-th iteration formulae of approximate solutions for this fractional order system are derived through the variational iteration method (VIM).
