Abstract

The (2 + 1)-dimensional modified Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation is decomposed into systems of integrable ordinary differential equations resorting to the nonlinearization of Lax pairs. Abel-Jacobi coordinates are introduced to straighten the flows, from which quasi-periodic solutions of the modified Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation are obtained in terms of Riemann theta functions.
