Abstract
The complex Ginzburg–Landau equation with cubic nonlinearity is an ubiquitous model for the evolution of slowly varying wave packets in nonlinear dissipative media. In this article the exact solutions for complex Ginzburg–Landau equation using first integral method and \((\frac{G'}{G})\)-expansion method are obtained. These methods can be applied to non-integrable equations as well as to integrable ones.
