Localized waves and interaction solutions to an extended (3+1)-dimensional Kadomtsev–Petviashvili equation

Abstract

In this paper, an extended (3[Formula: see text]+[Formula: see text]1)-dimensional Kadomtsev–Petviashvili (KP) equation is studied via the Hirota bilinear derivative method. Soliton, breather, lump and rogue waves, which are four types of localized waves, are obtained. N-soliton solution is derived by employing bilinear method. Then, line or general breathers, two-order line or general breathers, interaction solutions between soliton and line or general breathers are constructed by complex conjugate approach. These breathers own different dynamic behaviors in different planes. Taking the long wave limit method on the multi-soliton solutions under special parameter constraints, lumps, two- and three-lump and interaction solutions between dark soliton and dark lump are constructed, respectively. Finally, dark rogue waves, dark two-order rogue waves and related interaction solutions between dark soliton and dark rogue waves or dark lump are also demonstrated. Moreover, dynamical characteristics of these localized waves and interaction solutions are further vividly demonstrated through lots of three-dimensional graphs.
