Non-integrable variants of Boussinesq equation with two solitons

Three variants of the Boussinesq equation, namely, the (2 + 1)-dimensional Boussinesq equation, the (3 + 1)-dimensional Boussinesq equation, and the sixth-order Boussinesq equation are studied. The Hirota bilinear method is used to construct two soliton solutions for each equation. The study highlights the fact that these equations are non-integrable and do not admit N-soliton solutions although these equations can be put in bilinear forms.
