Diversity of New Three-Wave Solutions and New Periodic Waves for the (3 + 1)-Dimensional Kadomtsev-Petviashvili-Boussinesq-Like Equation ()
1. Introduction
The nonlinear integrable systems, which are of great importance in the field of physics and mathematics [1], have been paid more and more attention and many exact solutions of the nonlinear integrable systems are obtained by using different effective methods. In recent, experts and scholars have become more interested in the research of solutions to nonlinear partial differential equations (NPDEs). They have extensively expanded the field of NPDEs in many aspects. The Hirota bilinear form plays an important role in presenting soliton solutions, although some intelligent guessing is usually required. In recent years, more exact solutions have been found for solving integrable equations, such as solitary wave [2] [3] [4] [5] [6], rogue waves [7] [8] [9], periodic solitary wave [10] [11] [12], optical soliton [13], lump solution and interaction solution [14] - [34], and cross-kink wave solution [35]. It is natural and interesting to search for new three-wave solutions and new periodic wave to NPDEs taking advantage of hirota bilinear forms.
The (3 + 1)-dimensional Kadomtsev-Petviashvili-Boussinesq-like (KPB-like) equation is usually written as [36]:
(1)
The generalized Kadomtsev-Petviashvili-Boussinesq equation is first proposed in [37]. Recently, based on bilinear Bäcklund transformation, some classes of exponential and rational traveling wave solutions of Equation (1) are presented [36]. And by using the Hirota bilinear method, the lump solutions of Equation (1) are obtained [38].
In the present paper, we will give Hirota bilinear from and generalized lilinear from of the KPB-like equation in Section 2. In Section 3, new three-wave solutions of the KPB-like equation will be obtained based on generalized bilinear from. In Section 4, new periodic wave solutions of KPB-like equation will be given, that supplement the existing literature on KPB-like equation. A few conclusion and outlook will be given in Section 5.
2. Bilinear Form
Under dependent variable transformation:

Equation (1) is transformed into the following generalized bilinear form with

We have noticed that when
, the generalized bilinear form is transformed into Hirota bilinear form. Transform (2) is also a characteristic transformation for establishing Bell polynomial theory of soliton equation [40]. Its exact relation is as follows:
(9)
Via the bilinear transformation (2), Equation (3) is transformed into
