Wave solutions in (3 + 1)-dimensional generalized fractional mKdV-ZK equation utilizing jacobi elliptic functions

In this research, we investigate the effects of fractional order on the (3 + 1)-dimensional generalized space-time fractional modified KdV-Zakharov-Kuznetsov (mKdV-ZK) equation. We approach the problem by utilizing the conformable fractional derivative. By reducing the mKdV-ZK equation to an integer order nonlinear ordinary differential equation, we apply the Jacobi elliptic function method to find exact solutions. These solutions are specifically tailored for the fractional order of the (3 + 1)-dimensional generalized mKdV-ZK equation, encompassing solitary waves, shock waves, and periodic waves. We also compare these exact solutions with fractional solutions to gain further insights. Notably, our approach demonstrates the feasibility of solving nonlinear time-fractional differential equations with conformable derivatives. Several diagrams have been included to visually depict the behavior of the solutions under fractional order when certain special parameter values are employed.
