In this paper, the modified simple equation (MSE) method is executed to find the traveling wave solutions for the (2+1)-dimensional modified KdV–Kadomtsev–Petviashvili (mKdV-KP) equation and the (2+1)-dimensional Painlevé integrable Burgers equation (PIB). The efficiency of this...
The conditions are identified under which the electrostatic image forces at an interface dielectrics result in spatial confinement of the large polarons. This paper presents the theoretical study of large polarons state near the interface of two insulators. Action of a combinatio...
