Abstract
We show that a fifth order KdV-type equation admits several real as well as complex parity-time reversal or PT-invariant solutions with linear superposition of quadratic functions involving Jacobi elliptic functions of the form , , and . These results must be contrasted with only partial superposition of such functions in Korteweg-de Vries (KdV), and a few other nonlinear equations.
