The nested derivative criterion for determining elementary solutions to certain non-linear PDEs in one-dimensional space-time
In this article, we have studied a particular criterion to establish if a particular class of nonlinear PDEs $\mathcal{O}_t u=\mathcal{O}_x u $ in unidimensional space-time $(x,t)$ admits elementary solutions respect to the spatial coordinate $x$, through the nested derivative method. Where a nested derivative is a generalization of the usual partial derivative of a order higher than one and, in terms of differentials operators, is a generalization of the Laguerre operator. This method, integrated with Liouville's theorem and Galois theory and method by integrate by parts, establishes if solution of nested derivative equations admits elementary solutions respect with $x$. These solutions could help to study better evolutions of possible physical systems in space-time.
