The nonlinear Schrodinger equation (NLSE) is a fundamental equation in the field of nonlinear optics and plays an important role in the study of many physical phenomena. The present study introduces a new model that demonstrates the novelty of the paper and provides the advancement of knowledge in the area of nonlinear optics by solving a challenging problem known as the extended (3+1)-dimensional nonlinear conformable Kudryashov's equation (CKE) with generalized anti-cubic nonlinearity, which is a generalization of the NLSE to three spatial dimension and one temporal dimension for the first time. This work is significant because it advances our understanding of nonlinear optics and its applications to solve complex equations in physics and related disciplines. The extended hyperbolic function method (EHFM) and Nucci's reduction method are applied to the extended (3+1)-dimensional nonlinear CKE with generalized anti-cubic nonlinearity. The equation is solved by using the concept of conformable derivative, a recently developed operator in fractional calculus, which has advantages over other fractional derivatives in terms of accuracy and flexibility. The attained solutions include periodic singular, dark 1-soliton, singular 1-soliton, and bright 1-soliton which are visualized using 3D and contour plots. This study highlights the potential of using conformable derivative and the applied techniques to solve complex nonlinear differential equations in various fields. The obtained solutions and analysis will be useful in the design and analysis of optical communication systems and other related fields. Overall, this study contributes for the understanding of the dynamics of the extended (3+1)-dimensional nonlinear CKE and offers new insights into the use of mathematical techniques to tackle complex problems in physics and related fields.
