✦ Synopsis
We comment on traveling wave solutions and rational solutions to the 3+1 dimensional Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (KP) equations: (u t + 6uu x + u xxx ) x ± 3u yy ± 3u zz = 0. We also show that both of the 3+1 dimensional KP equations do not possess the three-soliton solution. This suggests that none of the 3+1 dimensional KP equations should be integrable, and partially explains why they do not pass the Painlevé test. As by-products, the one-soliton and two-soliton solutions and four classes of specific three-soliton solutions are explicitly presented.

An exact 1-soliton solution of the generalized Camassa-Holm Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation is obtained in this paper by the solitary wave ansatze. This solution is a generalized form of the solution that is obtained in earlier works.
