Subcritical modulational instability and transition to chaos from periodicity

Chaotic Dynamics 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

This study shows that a modulationally destabilized monochromatic wave in a fluid system may undergo a subcritical bifurcation directly into chaos, when dissipation is weak enough. Analysis is made within the framework of the complex Ginzburg-Landau equations.
