摘要

In the present paper, a generalized F-expansion method is proposed by further studying the famous extended F-expansion method and using a generalized transformation to seek more types of solutions of nonlinear partial differential equations. With the aid of symbolic computation, we choose (2 + 1)-dimensional Nizhnik-Novikov-Veselov equations to illustrate the validity and advantages of the method. As a result, abundant new exact solutions are obtained including Jacobi Elliptic Function solutions, soliton-like solutions, trigonometric function solution etc. The method can be also applied to other nonlinear partial differential equations.
