Vector rogue waves on a double-plane wave background

We study rogue wave excitation dynamics on a double-plane wave background through deriving rogue wave solution on the background. The results indicate that rogue wave still can be excited successfully from resonant perturbations with the two plane wave backgrounds. The obtained vector rogue wave can be decomposed to two rogue waves located on the two backgrounds separately. This enables us to investigate the superpositions of two of the three well-known fundamental rogue wave patterns, mainly including eye-shaped, anti-eye-shaped, and four-petaled one. The explicit conditions for different possible superpositions are clarified by a phase diagram for rogue wave pattern on each plane wave background. The detail analysis indicate that the rogue wave admits many different profiles, in contrast to the ones reported before. The studies can be extended directly to investigate other localized waves on double-plane wave background and even more plane waves involved cases.
