We focused on solitonic phenomena in wave propagation which was extracted from a generalized breaking soliton system in (3 + 1)-dimensions. The model describes the interaction phenomena between Riemann wave and long wave via two space variable in nonlinear media. Abundant double-periodic soliton, breather wave and the multiple rogue wave solutions to a generalized breaking soliton system by the Hirota bilinear form and a mixture of exponentials and trigonometric functions are presented. Periodic-soliton, breather wave and periodic are studied with the usage of symbolic computation. In addition, the symbolic computation and the applied methods for governing model are investigated. Through three-dimensional graph, density graph, and two-dimensional design using Maple, the physical features of double-periodic soliton and breather wave solutions are explained all right. The findings demonstrate the investigated model’s broad variety of explicit solutions. All outcomes in this work are necessary to understand the physical meaning and behavior of the explored results and shed light on the significance of the investigation of several nonlinear wave phenomena in sciences and engineering.
