Abstract

Firstly, using the improved homogeneous balance method, an auto-Darboux transformation (ADT) for the Brusselator reaction diffusion model is found. Based on the ADT, several exact solutions are obtained which contain some authors' results known. Secondly, by using a series of transformations, the model is reduced into a nonlinear reaction diffusion equation and then through using sine-cosine method, more exact solutions are found which contain soliton solutions.
