Keywords: kink, Burgers' equation, Hirota’s method.
Recently, several authors [1, 2] have considered generalization of the non-linear Burgers' equation. The approach used in these works accounts not only for the first-order but also the second-order members when deriving a generalized equation with respect to a small parameter. The equation obtained in this way is interesting in terms of the integrability of non-linear problems. In dimensionless coordinates x and t the generalized Burgers' equation takes the form [3, 4]
ut uu x u xx 22 uu xx 21 u x2 –
1 2 2 u u x 2 u xxx , 2
(1)
where , , , are dimensionless physical parameters; 1 , 2 are arbitrary parameters; ut u t and so on. For a special case of 1 2 , the following transformations are introduced [2]:
x x
2 . u t , t 2 t , u 3 6
The use of new variables gives Eq. (1) in the form
ut 3 uux x 3u 2ux uxxx 0 , where

kink solution of Eq. (2) is known for propagating waves [4]:

The method of simplest equation is used to obtain a solution (3) [5]. In order to obtain a new solution to Eq. (2), the Hirota’s method is used [6]. Let us introduce the new dependent variable
u
Fx , F
(4)
where F F x, t is the new unknown function; is the constant which will be determined below. Substituting Eq. (4) into Eq. (2) and requiring the fulfillment of the condition
2 3 2 0 ,

Fxt F 2 Fx Ft F AFxx2 DFx Fxxx F Fxxxx F 2 CFx2 Fxx 0 ,

Eq. (2) can be written as
where A 3 1 ; D 3 4 ; C 15 3 2 12 . Let us represent F as formal series
F 1 f1 2 f 2 ,
(7)
where f i f i x, t , i 1,2,3, , are new unknown functions; is a non-small parameter. Substituting Eq. (7) into Eq. (6) and equating the coefficients to zero at equal powers of , the infinite system of equations is obtained. The first three equations of this system have a form:
f1, xt f1, xxxx 0 ,
(8)
f 2, xt f 2, xxxx f1, x f1,t Af1,2xx Df1, x f1, xxx 0 ,

f 3, xt f 3, xxxx f1, x f 2,t f1,t f 2, x f1 f 2, xxxx f1 f 2, xt 2 Af1, xx f 2, xx 2
+ Df1, x f 2, xxx Df1, xxx f 2, x Cf1, x f1, xx .

For the solution corresponding to the single kink we use the function f1 in the following form:
f1 exp kx t 0 ,
(11)
where k , , 0 are the certain parameters. Substituting Eq. (11) in Eq. (8), we get the dispersion relation of the form:
k3.

In accordance with the Hirota’s method, the right-hand side of Eq. (9) should go to zero. Consequently,
A Dk3 .
(13)
For matching the conditions of (12) and (13), the condition of A D 1 should be satisfied, whereof it follows that
1 . Using this value, we obtain 1 from (5). The value of is obtained at the same value as the solution (3). The final solution of (2) can be written as
k kx t 0 u x, t 1 tanh . 2 2
(14)
since k is an arbitrary parameter, we see that the function
u x, t
k kx t 0 1 tanh 2 2
(15)
is also the solution of Eq. (2). These solutions describe the kink-type states as along with the kink they contain a constant summand relevant to the vacuum contribution. Such solutions arise when damping is taken into account in the theory 4 [7] and in the model describing the deformation of construction composites [8]. Unlike these two models for which the bound states of the two kink solutions can be constructed, such solutions cannot be obtained for the disturbed Burgers' equation at 1 and Sharma–asso–Olver equation [9] using the Hirota’s method.
