Joint Application of Bilinear Operator and F-Expansion Method for (2+1)-Dimensional Kadomtsev-Petviashvili Equation

The bilinear operator and F-expansion method are applied jointly to study (2+1)-dimensional Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (KP) equation. An exact cusped solitary wave solution is obtained by using the extended single-soliton test function and its mechanical feature which blows up periodically in finite time for cusped solitary wave is investigated. By constructing the extended double-soliton test function, a new type of exact traveling wave solution describing the assimilation of solitary wave and periodic traveling wave is also presented. Our results validate the effectiveness for joint application of the bilinear operator and F-expansion method
