Kink degeneracy and rogue potential solution for the (3+1)-dimensional B-type Kadomtsev–Petviashvili equation

In this paper, we obtained the exact breather-type kink soliton and breather-type periodic soliton solutions for the (3 + 1)-dimensional B-type Kadomtsev–Petviashvili (BKP) equation using the extended homoclinic test technique. Some new nonlinear phenomena, such as kink and periodic degeneracies, are investigated. Using the homoclinic breather limit method, some new rational breather solutions are found as well. Meanwhile, we also obtained the rational potential solution which is found to be just a rogue wave. These results enrich the variety of the dynamics of higher-dimensional nonlinear wave field.
