A new simplified bilinear method for the N-soliton solutions for a generalized FmKdV equation with time-dependent variable coefficients

In this paper a generalized fractional modified Korteweg?de Vries (FmKdV) equation with time-dependent variable coefficients, which is a generalized model in nonlinear lattice, plasma physics and ocean dynamics, is investigated. With the aid of a simplified bilinear method, fractional transforms and symbolic computation, the corresponding N-soliton solutions are given and illustrated. The characteristic line method and graphical analysis are applied to discuss the solitonic propagation and collision, including the bidirectional solitons and elastic interactions. Finally, the resonance phenomenon for the equation is examined.
