Since the soliton concept was introduced by Zabusky and Kruskal1) in 1965, more and more integrable equations have been found both in theory and in applied sciences (see, eg refs. 2 and 3 and reference therein). These integrable equations usually exhibit richness of explicit solutions, such as soliton solutions, rational solutions, and so on. Recently, it has been shown that nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLS), sine-Gordon equation (SG) and their integrable discrete versions possess a class of important explicit solutions–the homoclinic solutions (see refs. 4–7). Besides, many remarkable results have been achieved towards studying the existence of homoclinic orbits and related problems for the perturbed NLS and perturbed SG equations and their discrete cases and etc. In the literature, it is rare to have explicit representation of homoclinic solutions even for integrable equations. To our knowledge, besides the NLS, SG and their integable discrete versions, other known integrable equations exhibiting homoclinic solutions are the Davey–Stewartson equation, 8) the complex mKdV9) and the discrete mKdV. 10) In view of this unsatisfactory situation and importance of homoclinic solutions, there is an urgercy to seek more integrable equations exhibiting homoclinic stuctures. The purpose of this short note is to give two new examples of equations exhibiting homoclinic solutions: the coupled Schrödinger–Boussinesq equation and the coupled Higgs equation. Analytic expressions of homoclinic orbits for these two equations are constructed based on Hirota’s bilinear method. 11)
