Abstract
In this paper, the linear superposition principle and Hirota bilinear equations are simultaneously employed to handle two new (3+1)-dimensional Jimbo–Miwa equations. The corresponding resonant multi-soliton solutions and the related wave numbers are formally established, which are totally different from the previously reported ones. Moreover, the extracted N-soliton waves and dispersion relations have distinct physical structures compared to solutions obtained by Wazwaz. Finally, five graphical representations are portrayed by taking definite values to free parameters which demonstrates various versions of traveling solitary waves. The results show the proposed approach provides enough freedom to construct multi-soliton waves that may be related to a large variety of real physical phenomena and, moreover, enriches the solution structure.
