Abstract
By using Modified simple equation method, we study the Cahn Allen equation which arises in many scientific applications such as mathematical biology, quantum mechanics and plasma physics. As a result, the existence of solitary wave solutions of the Cahn Allen equation is obtained. Exact explicit solutions interms of hyperbolic solutions of the associated Cahn Allen equation are characterized with some free parameters. Finally, the variety of structure and graphical representation make the dynamics of the equations visible and provides the mathematical foundation in mathematical biology, quantum mechanics and plasma physics.

Comment:
I believe that the name of Eq. (5) (with m=3) used in this preprint is inappropriate.
The authors should know that this equation is simply a particular case of the famous
FitzhughNagumo equation introduced in [1-2]. On the other hand, it is
nothing elase but the real case of the classical
Newell=Whitehead model [3].
Travelling wave solutions of Eq. (5) (with m=3) were found for the first time in [4]
and then rediscovered in several papers in the 1990s

The authors should compare their results with those obtained about 2530 years ago otherwise
it is not clear what essentially they have done.
