Symbolic Computation on Soliton Solutions for Variable-coefficient Quantum Zakharov-Kuznetsov Equation in Magnetized Dense Plasmas

The (3+1)-dimensional quantum Zakharov-Kuznetsov equations with variable coefficients have the applications to nonlinear ion-acoustic waves in dense magnetoplasmas. Via a simplified bilinear method and symbolic computation, we construct the multiple solitary wave solutions, analyze the elastic collisions with the constant and variable coefficients, and observe that solitons no longer keep rectilinear propagation and display different shapes because of the inhomogeneities of media. Then, a dense magnetoplasma consisting of electrons and singly charged ions is considered. The basic set of quantum hydrodynamic is reduced to the quantum Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation by using the reductive perturbation technique. Parametric analysis is carried out in order to illustrate that the soliton amplitude, width and velocity are affected by the quantum diffraction and obliqueness effect. Furthermore, propagation characteristics and interaction behaviors of the solitons are also discussed through the graphical analysis and the characteristic-line method.
