The optimal system is obtained based on the adjoint table of the generators of the equation. Exact solutions of the equation are constructed by applying symmetry reduction, Exp(−φ(ξ)) expansion method, Exp-function expansion method, Riccati equation method, and (G'/G) expansion method. The physical structures of dark soliton, kink wave, and periodic solutions are derived via numerical simulations.
