Lump soliton, mixed lump stripe and periodic lump solutions of a (2 + 1)-dimensional asymmetrical Nizhnik–Novikov–Veselov equation

Abstract

The lump soliton solutions of a (2 + 1)-dimensional asymmetrical Nizhnik–Novikov–Veselov equation are obtained by making use of its bilinear form. We discuss the conditions to guarantee the analyticity, positiveness and localization of lump solutions. The solutions of interaction between a lump and a stripe are presented. It is proved that the interaction between the two solitary waves is non-elastic. The three-wave method is employed to investigate the periodic lump solutions. Figures are presented to illustrate the dynamical features of these solutions.
