Solutions of Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation with power law nonlinearity in (1+3) dimensions

This paper studies the Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation in (1+3) dimensions with an arbitrary power law nonlinearity. The method of Lie symmetry analysis is used to carry out the integration of the Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation. The solutions obtained are cnoidal waves, periodic solutions, singular periodic solutions, and solitary wave solutions. Subsequently, the extended tanh-function method and the G′/G method are used to integrate the Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation. Finally, the nontopological soliton solution is obtained by the aid of ansatz method. There are numerical simulations throughout the paper to support the analytical development.
