Bäcklund Transformation and Exact Solutions to a Generalized (3 + 1)-Dimensional Nonlinear Evolution Equation

Abstract

In this article, a generalized (3 + 1)-dimensional nonlinear evolution equation (NLEE), which can be obtained by a multivariate polynomial, is investigated. Based on the Hirota bilinear method, the N-soliton solution and bilinear Bäcklund transformation (BBT) with explicit formulas are successfully constructed. By using BBT, two traveling wave solutions and a mixed solution of the generalized (3 + 1)-dimensional NLEE are obtained. Furthermore, the lump and the interaction solutions for the equation are constructed. Finally, the dynamic properties of the lump and the interaction solutions are described graphically.
