Abstract

Purpose

The purpose of the article is to conduct a mathematical and theoretical analysis of soliton solutions for a specific nonlinear evolution equation known as the (2 + 1)-dimensional Zoomeron equation. Solitons are solitary wave solutions that maintain their shape and propagate without changing form in certain nonlinear wave equations. The Zoomeron equation appears to be a special model in this context and is associated with other types of solitons, such as Boomeron and Trappon solitons. In this work, the authors employ two mathematical methods, the modified F-expansion approach with the Riccati equation and the modified generalized Kudryashov’s methods, to derive various types of soliton solutions. These solutions include kink solitons, dark solitons, bright solitons, singular solitons, periodic singular solitons and rational solitons. The authors also present these solutions in different dimensions, including two-dimensional, three-dimensional and contour graphics, which can help visualize and understand the behavior of these solitons in the context of the Zoomeron equation. The primary goal of this article is to contribute to the understanding of soliton solutions in the context of the (2 + 1)-dimensional Zoomeron equation, and it serves as a mathematical and theoretical exploration of the properties and characteristics of these solitons in this specific nonlinear wave equation.

Design/methodology/approach

The article’s methodology involves applying specialized mathematical techniques to analyze and derive soliton solutions for the (2 + 1)-dimensional Zoomeron equation and then presenting these solutions graphically. The overall goal is to contribute to the understanding of soliton behavior in this specific nonlinear equation and potentially uncover new insights or applications of these soliton solutions.

Findings

As for the findings of the article, they can be summarized as follows: The article provides a systematic exploration of the (2 + 1)-dimensional Zoomeron equation and its soliton solutions, which include different types of solitons. The key findings of the article are likely to include the derivation of exact mathematical expressions that describe these solitons and the successful visualization of these solutions. These findings contribute to a better understanding of solitons in this specific nonlinear wave equation, potentially shedding light on their behavior and applications within the context of the Zoomeron equation.

Originality/value

The originality of this article is rooted in its exploration of soliton solutions within the (2 + 1)-dimensional Zoomeron equation, its application of specialized mathematical methods and its successful presentation of various soliton types through graphical representations. This research adds to the understanding of solitons in this specific nonlinear equation and potentially offers new insights and applications in this field.

Abstract

Purpose

This paper aims to explore new variable separation solutions for a new generalized (3 + 1)-dimensional breaking soliton equation, construct novel nonlinear excitations and discuss their dynamical behaviors that may exist in many realms such as fluid dynamics, optics and telecommunication.

Design/methodology/approach

By means of the multilinear variable separation approach, variable separation solutions for the new generalized (3 + 1)-dimensional breaking soliton equation are derived with arbitrary low dimensional functions with respect to {y, z, t}. The asymptotic analysis is presented to represent generally the evolutions of rogue waves.

Findings

Fixing several types of explicit expressions of the arbitrary function in the potential field U, various novel nonlinear wave excitations are fabricated, such as hybrid waves of kinks and line solitons with different structures and other interesting characteristics, as well as interacting waves between rogue waves, kinks, line solitons with translation and rotation.

Research limitations/implications

The paper presents that a variable separation solution with an arbitrary function of three independent variables has great potential to describe localized waves.

Practical implications

The roles of parameters in the chosen functions are ascertained in this study, according to which, one can understand the amplitude, shape, background and other characteristics of the localized waves.

Social implications

The work provides novel localized waves that might be used to explain some nonlinear phenomena in fluids, plasma, optics and so on.

Originality/value

The study proposes a new generalized (3 + 1)-dimensional breaking soliton equation and derives its nonlinear variable separation solutions. It is demonstrated that a variable separation solution with an arbitrary function of three independent variables provides a treasure-house of nonlinear waves.

Abstract

Purpose

The purpose of this study is to produce families of exact soliton solutions (2+1)-dimensional Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation, that describes shallow water waves, using an ansätze approach.

Design/methodology/approach

This article aims to introduce a recently developed ansätze for creating soliton and travelling wave solutions to nonlinear nonintegrable partial differential equations, especially those with physical significance.

Findings

A recently developed ansätze solution was used to successfully construct soliton solutions to the (2 + 1)-dimensional KdV equation. This straightforward method is an alternative to the Painleve test analysis, yielding similar results. The strategy demonstrated the existence of a single soliton solution, also known as a localized wave or bright soliton, as well as singular solutions or kink solitons.

Originality/value

The ansätze solution used to construct soliton solutions to the (2 + 1)-dimensional KdV equation is novel. New soliton solutions were also obtained.

Abstract

Purpose

The purpose of this paper is to study the homoclinic breather waves, rogue waves and multi-soliton waves of the (2 + 1)-dimensional Mel’nikov equation, which describes an interaction of long waves with short wave packets.

Design/methodology/approach

The author applies the Hirota’s bilinear method, extended homoclinic test approach and parameter limit method to construct the homoclinic breather waves and rogue waves of the (2 + 1)-dimensional Mel’nikov equation. Moreover, multi-soliton waves are constructed by using the three-wave method.

Findings

The results imply that the (2 + 1)-dimensional Mel’nikov equation has breather waves, rogue waves and multi-soliton waves. Moreover, the dynamic properties of such solutions are displayed vividly by figures.

Research limitations/implications

This paper presents efficient methods to find breather waves, rogue waves and multi-soliton waves for nonlinear evolution equations.

Originality/value

The outcome suggests that the extreme behavior of the homoclinic breather waves yields the rogue waves. Moreover, the multi-soliton waves are constructed, including the new breather two-solitary and two-soliton solutions. Meanwhile, the dynamics of these solutions will greatly enrich the diversity of the dynamics of the (2 + 1)-dimensional Mel’nikov equation.

Abstract

Purpose

The purpose of this paper is to find homoclinic breather waves, rogue waves and soliton waves for a (3 + 1)-dimensional generalized Kadomtsev–Petviashvili (gKP) equation, which can be used to describe the propagation of weakly nonlinear dispersive long waves on the surface of a fluid.

Findings

The results imply that the gKP equation admits rogue waves, homoclinic breather waves and soliton waves. Moreover, the authors also find that rogue waves can come from the extreme behavior of the breather solitary wave. The authors analyze the propagation and interaction properties of these solutions to better understand the dynamic behavior of these solutions.

Originality/value

These results may help us to further study the local structure and the interaction of waves in KP-type equations. It is hoped that the results can help enrich the dynamic behavior of such equations.

Abstract

Purpose

This paper aims to study the Gramian solutions and solitonic interactions of a (2 + 1)-dimensional Broer–Kaup–Kupershmidt (BKK) system, which models the nonlinear and dispersive long gravity waves traveling along two horizontal directions in the shallow water of uniform depth.

Design/methodology/approach

Pfaffian technique is used to construct the Gramian solutions of the (2 + 1)-dimensional BKK system. Asymptotic analysis is applied on the two-soliton solutions to study the interaction properties.

Findings

N-soliton solutions in the Gramian with a real function ζ(y) of the (2 + 1)-dimensional BKK system are constructed and proved, where N is a positive integer and y is the scaled space variable. Conditions of elastic and inelastic interactions between the two solitons are revealed asymptotically. For the three and four solitons, elastic, inelastic interactions and soliton resonances are discussed graphically. Effect of the wave numbers, initial phases and ζ(y) on the solitonic interactions is also studied.

Originality/value

Shallow water waves are studied for the applications in environmental engineering and hydraulic engineering. This paper studies the shallow water waves through the Gramian solutions of a (2 + 1)-dimensional BKK system and provides some phenomena that have not been studied.
