Heteroclinic orbits for a system of amplitude equations for orthogonal domain walls

Analysis of PDEs 2021-12-21 v1

Abstract

Using a variational method, we prove the existence of heteroclinic solutions for a 6dimensional system of ordinary differential equations. We derive this system from the classical B{\'e}nard-Rayleigh problem near the convective instability threshold. The constructed heteroclinic solutions provide first order approximations for domain walls between two orthogonal convective rolls.
