A modification to the first integral method and its applications

作者:

Highlights:

• Our modified first integral method enlarges original first integral method to higher-order ordinary differential equations, and in the meantime compared with original first integral method, our modification is very straight and easy to calculate when we deal with second order ordinary differential equation.

• Some important first integrals are straightly reobtained for the density-dependent conformable fractional diffusion-reaction equation, the famous Duffing-van der Pol oscillator, and the well-known nonlinear evolution equation for description of surface waves in a convecting liquid.

• Novel first integrals are obtained for the complex cubic-quintic Ginzburg–Landau equation and the KdV–Burgers–Fisher equation.
