Abstract This paper aims to study a generalized extended ( 2 + 1 ) {(2+1)} -dimensional Kadomstev–Petviashvili (KP) equation. The KP equation models several physical phenomena such as shallow water waves with weakly nonlinear restoring forces. We will use a variety of wave ansatz methods so as to extract bright, singular, shock waves also referred to as dark or topological or kink soliton solutions. In addition to soliton solutions, we will also derive periodic wave solutions and other analytical solutions based on the invariance surface condition. Moreover, we will establish the multiplier method to derive low-order conservation laws. In order to have a better understanding of the results, graphical structures of the derived solutions will be discussed in detail based on some selected appropriate parametric values in 2-dimensions, 3-dimensions and contour plots. The findings can well mimic complex waves and their underlying properties in fluids.
