For this purpose, the Lie symmetries group is first adopted for similarity reduction and constructing some exact solutions of the governing equation. After deriving the dynamical system of the nonlinear Kodama equation, its bifurcation analysis is accomplished using the idea of the planar dynamical system. Through perturbing the resultant dynamical system using a trigonometric function, chaotic characteristics of the governing model are analyzed by serving several two- and three-dimensional phase portraits. A sensitivity analysis of the dynamical system is performed using the Runge-Kutta method to ensure that small changes in initial conditions have little impact on solution stability. Finally, using the technique of the planar dynamical system, a number of Jacobi elliptic function solutions (in special cases, bright and dark solitons) are constructed for the nonlinear Kodama equation. It has been shown that bright and dark solitons can be controlled for their width and height effectively by the achievements of the current paper.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessNonlinear Kodama equationLie symmetriesBifurcation analysisChaotic characteristicsSensitivity analysisBright and dark solitonsArticle54Q1WOS:001108793700001Q12-s2.0-8517537923710.1016/j.rinp.2023.107129
