Multiple soliton and M-lump waves to a generalized B-type Kadomtsev–Petviashvili equation

Abstract

In this study, we focus on the (3+1)-dimensional generalized B-type Kadomtsev–Petviashvili (gBKP) equation in fluid dynamics, which is useful for modeling weakly dispersive waves transmitted in quasi media and fluid mechanics. As a general matter, this paper examines the gBKP equation including variable coefficients of time that are widely employed in plasma physics, marine engineering, ocean physics, and nonlinear sciences to explain shallow water waves. Using Hirota’s bilinear approach, one-, two, and three-soliton solutions to the problem are constructed. By employing a long-wave method, 1-M-, 2-M, and 3-M-lump solutions are derived. In addition, interaction phenomena of one-, and two-soliton solutions with one-M-lump wave are revealed. Moreover, an interaction solution between a two-M-lump wave and a one-soliton solution is also offered. The planes that M-lump waves travel among them are derived. We believe that our findings will help improve the dynamical properties of (3+1)-dimensional BKP-type equation.
