Wave propagation speed in non-linear differential equations
Could it happen than a solitary travelling wave (soliton) had a different propagation speed when seen from the usual wave equations from that in a non-linear equation. I mean, suppose a solution $F=f(...

Why linear wave equation does not have solitonic solutions?
As many people define solitary waves they are localized pulses that propagate without changing the shape. As far as I know the same pulses exist in ordinary wave equation ! why should we look for ...
