Integrability, breather, rogue wave, lump, lump-multi-stripe, and lump-multi-soliton solutions of a (3 <b>+</b> 1)-dimensional nonlinear evolution equation

Abstract

In this article, we consider a new (3 + 1)-dimensional evolution equation, which can be used to interpret the propagation of nonlinear waves in the oceans and seas. We effectively investigate the integrable properties of the considered nonlinear evolution equation through several aspects. First of all, we present some elementary properties of multi-dimensional Bell polynomial theory and its relation with Hirota bilinear form. Utilizing those relations, we derive a Hirota bilinear form and a bilinear Bäcklund transformation. By employing the Cole–Hopf transformation in the bilinear Bäcklund transformation, we present a Lax pair. Additionally, using the Bell polynomial theory, we compute an infinite number of conservation laws. Moreover, we obtain one-, two-, and three-soliton solutions explicitly from Hirota bilinear form and illustrate them graphically. Breather solutions are also derived by employing appropriate complex conjugate parameters in the two-soliton solution. Choosing the generalized algorithm for rogue waves derived from the N-soliton solution, we directly obtain a first-order center-controllable rogue wave. Lump solutions are formulated by employing a well-established quadratic test function as a solution to the Hirota bilinear form. Further taking the test function in a combined form of quadratic and exponential functions, we obtain lump-multi-stripe solutions. Furthermore, a combined form of quadratic and hyperbolic cosine functions produces lump-multi-soliton solutions. The fission and fusion effects in the evolution of lump-multi-stripe solutions and lump-soliton-solutions are demonstrated pictorially.
