This article extends the celebrated Riemann–Hilbert (RH) method equipped with mixed spectrum to a new integrable system of three-component coupled time-varying coefficient complex mKdV equations (ccmKdVEs for short) generated by the mixed spectral equations (msEs). Firstly, the ccmKdVEs and the msEs for generating the ccmKdVEs are proposed. Then, based on the msEs, a solvable RH problem related to the ccmKdVEs is constructed. By using the constructed RH problem with mixed spectrum, scattering data for the recovery of potential formulae are further determined. In the case of reflectionless coefficients, explicit N-soliton solutions of the ccmKdVEs are ultimately obtained. Taking N equal to 1 and 2 as examples, this paper reveals that the spatiotemporal solution structures with time-varying nonlinear dynamic characteristics localized in the ccmKdVEs is attributed to the multiple selectivity of mixed spectrum and time-varying coefficients. In addition, to further highlight the application of our work in fractional calculus, by appropriately selecting these time-varying coefficients, the ccmKdVEs are transformed into a conformable time-fractional order system of three-component coupled complex mKdV equations. Based on the obtained one-soliton solutions, a set of initial values are assigned to the transformed fractional order system, and the N-th iteration formulae of approximate solutions for this fractional order system are derived through the variational iteration method (VIM).
