Abstract

In this paper, a (3 + 1)-dimensional generalized variable coefficient Kadomtsev–Petviashvili equation is investigated systematically, which can characterize evolution of the long water waves and small amplitude surface waves with the weak nonlinearity, weak dispersion, and weak perturbation in fluid mechanics. We investigate one lump and lump molecules obtained from one breather and breather molecules by a new degenerating breather method, respectively. In addition, the bound state of lump molecules and other localized waves is derived theoretically by velocity resonance. Considering the condition of variable coefficient, the several sets of interesting solutions having a complex structure are obtained, which include the type of parabolic, S-shaped, and periodic. The analysis method can also help us to study lump molecules existing in other integrable systems from a new perspective.
