Exact travelling wave solutions for the generalized shallow water wave equation

Abstract Using homogeneous balance method an auto-Backlund transformation for the generalized shallow water wave equation is obtained. Then solitary wave solutions are found. Also, modified extended tanh-function method is applied and new exact travelling wave solutions are obtained. The obtained solutions include rational, periodical, singular and solitary wave solutions.
