Explicit exact solutions for (2 + 1)-dimensional Boiti–Leon–Pempinelli equation

In this paper, we construct explicit exact solutions for the coupled Boiti–Leon–Pempinelli equation (BLP equation) by using a extended tanh method and symbolic computation system Mathematica. By means of the method, many new exact travelling wave solutions for the BLP system are successfully obtained. the extended tanh method can be applied to other higher-dimensional coupled nonlinear evolution equations in mathematical physics.
