Bifurcations of Traveling Wave Solutions for Fully Nonlinear Water Waves with Surface Tension in the Generalized Serre-Green-Naghdi Equations

For the generalized Serre-Green-Naghdi equations with surface tension, using the methodologies of dynamical systems and singular traveling wave theory developed by Li and Chen [2007] for their traveling wave systems, in different parameter conditions of the parameter space, all possible bounded solutions (solitary wave solutions, kink wave solutions, peakons, pseudo-peakons and periodic peakons as well as compactons) are obtained. More than 26 explicit exact parametric representations are given. It is interesting to find that this fully nonlinear water waves equation coexists with uncountably infinitely many smooth solitary wave solutions or infinitely many pseudo-peakon solutions with periodic solutions or compacton solutions. Differing from the well-known peakon solution of the Camassa-Holm equation, the generalized Serre-Green-Naghdi equations have four new forms of peakon solutions.
