Strong matrix properties, roughly speaking, refer to generic conditions on a matrix such that its spectral perturbation and pattern perturbation interact nicely to cover a neighborhood in the ambient space. With a rich history, these strong…

In this paper, we analyse the dynamics of a pattern-forming system close to simultaneous Turing and Turing--Hopf instabilities, which have a 1:1 spatial resonance, that is, they have the same critical wave number. For this, we consider a…

The presence of spatial inhomogeneity in a nonlinear medium restricts the formation of Solitary Waves (SW) on a discrete set of positions whereas a nonlocal nonlinearity tends to smooth the medium response by averaging over neighboring…
