Lump and travelling wave solutions of a (3 + 1)-dimensional nonlinear evolution equation

Abstract

In this paper, the (3+1)-dimensional nonlinear evolution equation is studied analytically. The bilinear form of given model is achieved by using the Hirota bilinear method. As a result, the lump waves and collisions between lumps and periodic waves, the collision among lump wave and single, double-kink soliton solutions as well as the collision between lump, periodic, and single, double-kink soliton solutions for the given model are constructed. Furthermore, some new traveling wave solutions are developed by applying the exp(−ϕ(ξ)) expansion method. The 3D, 2D and contours plots are drawn to demonstrate the nature of the nonlinear model for setting appropriate set of parameters. As a result, a collection of bright, dark, periodic, rational function and elliptic function solutions are established. The applied strategies appear to be more powerful and efficient approaches to construct some new traveling wave structures for various contemporary models of recent era.
