Abstract

A new variant of the \((2+1)\)-dimensional [\((2+1)d\)] Boussinesq equation was recently introduced by Zhu [Line soliton and rational solutions to (2+1)-dimensional Boussinesq equation by Dbar problem, 2017. arXiv:1704.02779v2; see eq. (3)]. First, we derive in this paper the one-soliton solutions of both bright and dark types for the extended \((2+1)d\) Boussinesq equation by using the traveling wave method. Second, N-soliton, breather, and rational solutions are obtained by using the Hirota bilinear method and the long-wave limit. Nonsingular rational solutions of two types were obtained analytically, namely (i) rogue wave solutions having the form of W-shaped lines waves and (ii) lump-type solutions. Two generic types of semi-rational solutions were also put forward. The obtained semi-rational solutions are as follows: (iii) a hybrid of a first-order lump and a bright one-soliton solution and (iv) a hybrid of a first-order lump and a first-order breather.
