The study derives exact travelling-wave solutions of the space–time fractional Kadomtsev– Petviashvili equation using the tanh–coth method with conformable fractional derivatives. The method reduces the fractional PDE to a nonlinear ODE and produces eight solution branches, including hyperbolic, trigonometric, singular, dark, and rational structures. The solutions are verified symbolically, while the fractional order is shown to influence wave amplitude, width, localization, and propagation characteristics. Wolfram Mathematica software is used for plotting 3D, 2D and contour plots. .
