The nonlinear Schrödinger equation as a classical model in physics is gradually becoming an urgent problem that needs to be studied. Obtaining an exact solution of the corresponding model can not only provide theoretical support for the experiment but also provide a basis for solving practical problems.
In this work, we study the propagation of waves of the two-dimensional nonlinear Schrödinger equa- tion in nonlinear media with dispersion processes. The tan-cot function method is applied. This method is effective in solving nonlinear equations of mathematical physics. Various solutions in the form of periodic waves are obtained. Graphs of the solutions arepresented.
Keywords:exact solutions, tan-cot function method, two-dimensional, nonlinear Schrödingerequa- tion, ordinary differential equation, partial differential equation
