The localized excitation on the Weierstrass elliptic function periodic background for the (3+1)-dimensional generalized variable-coefficient Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation

In this paper, the linear spectral problem associated with the (3+1)-dimensional generalized variable-coefficient Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (gvcKP) equation with the Weierstrass function as the external potential is investigated based on the Lam & eacute; function, from which some new localized nonlinear wave solutions on the Weierstrass elliptic P-function periodic background are obtained by the Darboux transformation. The degenerate solutions on the P-function periodic background for the gvcKP equation can be derived by taking the limits of the half-periods omega(1), omega(2) of P(x), whose evolution and corresponding dynamics are also discussed. The findings show that nonlinear waves on the P-function periodic background behave as different types of nonlinear waves in different spaces, including periodic waves, vortex solitons and interaction solutions, aiding in elucidating some physical phenomena in the related fields, such as the physical ocean and nonlinear optics.
