One of the most noteworthy differential equations of the first order is the Riccati differential equation. It is applied in various branches of mathematics, including algebraic geometry, physics, and conformal mapping theory. The -transform Adomian decomposition method is employed in the current study to find exact solutions for different kinds of nonlinear differential equations. We give thorough detailed proofs for new theorems related to the -transform technique. The Adomian decomposition method and the -transform method serve as the foundation for this technique. For certain differential equations, the theoretical analysis of the -transform Adomian decomposition method is examined and is computed using readily computed terms. Our findings are contrasted with exact solutions found in the literature that were produced using alternative techniques. The significant features of the -transform Adomian decomposition method are described in the article. It has been shown that the -transform Adomian decomposition method is very efficient, useful, and adaptable to a broad variety of linear and nonlinear differential equations. Most of the symbolic and numerical calculations were performed using Mathematica.
Solving differential and integral equations with initial value conditions requires the use of integral transformations, which are crucial. For the purpose of solving differential and integral equations, one of the most used methods is the integral transform method.1–11 In the literature, the Laplace transform is also the most often employed method.12 Watugala13 first suggested the Laplace-Carson transform in 1993. It is also known as the -multiplied variant of the standard Laplace transform. It is closely related to the Sumudu transform, which was employed to resolve controlled engineering applications. Similar to the Sumudu integral transform and the Laplace-Carson transform, the N-transformation, also known as the natural transform, was first introduced in 2008. The N-transform can solve the unsteady fluid flow through a flat wall problem by changing the variables to offer both Laplace and Sumudu integral transforms.5–8
Most linear and nonlinear approaches that exist in a variety of scientific areas, such as population models, fluid mechanics, solid state physics, plasma physics, and chemical kinetics, can be modeled using differential equations. As a result, it is still very difficult to obtain exact or approximate solutions to linear and nonlinear differential equations in applied mathematics and physics, which calls for new methods.14–20 To obtain exact or approximate analytical solutions of those existing phenomena, a number of powerful mathematical techniques have been proposed, including the adomian decomposition method (ADM),14–18 natural ADM (NADM),21 reduced differential transform method (RDTM),22–25 operational method,26 collocation method,27 wavelet operational matrix method,28 and homotopy perturbation method (HPM).29
Ordinary differential equations (ODEs) of integer order can be used to model most nonlinear physical phenomena.21 Dynamical study of ODEs is a challenging task that requires analytical and numerical analysis. Notably, the most effective and successful techniques for figuring out the approximate analytical and exact solutions of ODEs are integral transformations. Also, perturbations and long-lasting polynomials are not included in integral transforms, which is crucial and important.
The -transform ADM (), as described by Maitama and Zhao,30 is a new technique for solving both linear and nonlinear differential equations. It has been inspired and driven by the continuing research in this field. Additionally, implementing the -transform method (), Shehu Maitama and Wei dong Zhao established exact solutions to partial differential equations (PDEs). It is important to note that the exact solutions reported in that study were incorrect, and this can be simply verified by incorporating the initial conditions to the exact solutions.
This work is presented as follows: The definitions and significant properties of the -transform and the Adomian decomposition technique are provided in “The -transform ADM” section along with a background on the theory of integral transform. The -transform theories are examined in full with proofs in the “-transform derivation” section. Exact solutions to nonlinear ODEs are provided in the “Analysis of the for nonlinear ODEs” section. In the “Applications of ” section, we present the theoretical analysis of the JADM for nonlinear ODEs. The “Conclusion” section focuses on providing precise solutions to nonlinear ODEs. We present our work’s conclusion in the “Acknowledgments” section. Most of the calculations in this work were carried out using the symbolic manipulation program Mathematica 13.

Adomian polynomials evaluations: Now let’s introduce the Adomian polynomials, which are a useful tool for efficiently breaking down a complex nonlinear component into smaller, more manageable components that can be integrable as a Taylor series. The unknown function can be represented as follows, as demonstrated by Wazwaz14:where the components must be found by building a recursive relation. The following formula can be used to define as an infinite series, also referred to as Adomian polynomials , when working with nonlinear termswhere the of the nonlinear term can be computed using the formula by Adomian17:The general formula for equation (5) can then be expressed as follows:

Conclusion
One of the most intriguing differential equations of first order is the nonlinear Riccati differential equation, which we solve in this article using a unique strategy. It has applications in algebraic geometry, physics, and the theory of conformal mapping, among other branches of mathematics. Using the JADM, a higher-dimensional heat flow problem has been effectively resolved. We also provided exact solutions for three additional ODEs that are nonlinear. The results show that the convergence rate of the JADM is faster than other methods reported in the literature. The relevance of JADM was proved by its application in applied science and engineering fields. Furthermore, the effectiveness and applicability of the proposed technique were demonstrated when we applied it to multiple examples. The JADM may also be used to accurately solve other nonlinear ODEs and PDEs, including systems of ODEs and PDEs, which are frequently encountered in science and engineering, according to the study mentioned above. Thus, a deeper grasp of the real-world applications represented by these modeling issues will become evident from the NADM solutions to several situations.
