Abstract The Painlevé property, infinitely many symmetries and exact solutions of a (2+1)-dimensional nonlinear Schr$\ddot{o}$dinger equation, which are obtained from the constraints of the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation, are studied in this paper. The Painlevé property is proved by the Weiss-Kruskal approach, the infinitely many symmetries are obtained by the formal series symmetry method and the dromion-like solution which is localized exponentially in all directions is obtained by a variable separation method.

Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
