Abstract

By the extended homoclinic test technique, explicit solutions of the (3+1)-dimensional Kadomtsev-Petviashvili(KP) equation are obtained. These solutions include doubly periodic wave solutions, doubly soliton solutions and periodic solitary-wave solutions. It is shown that the extended homoclinic test technique is a straightforward and powerful mathematical tool for solving nonlinear evolution equation.
