Stability analysis and applications of traveling wave solutions of three-dimensional nonlinear modified Zakharov–Kuznetsov equation in a magnetized plasma

Abstract

Propagation of three-dimensional nonlinear solitary waves in a magnetized electron–positron plasma is analyzed. Modified extended mapping method is further modified and applied to three-dimensional nonlinear modified Zakharov–Kuznetsov equation to find traveling solitary wave solutions. As a result, electrostatic field potential, electric field, magnetic field and quantum statistical pressure are obtained with the aid of Mathematica. The new exact solitary wave solutions are obtained in different forms such as periodic, kink and anti-kink, dark soliton, bright soliton, bright and dark solitary waves, etc. The results are expressed in the forms of trigonometric, hyperbolic, rational and exponential functions. The electrostatic field potential and electric and magnetic fields are shown graphically. The soliton stability of these solitary wave solutions is analyzed. These results demonstrate the efficiency and precision of the method that can be applied to many other mathematical physical problems.
