Residual Symmetry and Interaction Solutions of the (2+1)-Dimensional Generalized Calogero–Bogoyavlenskii–Schiff Equation

In this paper, we investigate the (2+1)-dimensional generalized Calogero–Bogoyavlenskii–Schiff (gCBS) equation by using the residual symmetry analysis and consistent Riccati expansion (CRE) method, respectively. The residual symmetry of the gCBS equation is localized into a Lie point symmetry in a prolonged system and a new Bäcklund transformation of this equation is obtained. By applying the standard Lie symmetry method to the prolonged gCBS system, new symmetry reduction solutions of the gCBS equation are obtained. The gCBS equation is proved to be CRE integrable and new Bäcklund transformations of it are obtained, from which interaction solutions between solitons and periodic waves are generated and analyzed.
