Other patterns for the first and second order rational solutions to the KPI equation

subject

description

We present rational solutions to the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation (KPI) in terms of polynomials in x, y and t depending on several real parameters. We get an infinite hierarchy of rational solutions written as a quotient of a polynomial of degree 2N (N + 1) − 2 in x, y and t by a polynomial of degree 2N (N + 1) in x, y and t, depending on 2N − 2 real parameters for each positive integer N. We construct explicit expressions of the solutions in the simplest cases N = 1 and N = 2 and we study the patterns of their modulus in the (x, y) plane for different values of time t and parameters. In particular, in the study of these solutions, we see the appearance not yet observed of three pairs of two peaks in the case of order 2.
