Abstract
The 2-D generalized variable-coefficient Kadomtsev-Petviashvili-Burgers equation representing many types of acoustic waves in cosmic and/or laboratory dusty plasmas is reduced by the modified classical direct similarity reduction method to nonlinear ordinary differential equation of fourth-order. Using the extended Riccati equation mapping method for solving the reduced equation, many new shock wave, solitary wave and periodic wave solutions are obtained with some constraints between the variable coefficients. Finally, some physical interpretations for the obtained solutions as, bright and dark solitons, periodic solitary wave, and shock wave in dust plasma and quantum plasma are achieved.
