When the steady states at infinity become unstable through a pattern forming bifurcation, a travelling wave may bifurcate into a modulated front which is time-periodic in a moving frame. This scenario has been studied by B.Sandstede and…
We study the dynamics of holes and defects in the 1D complex Ginzburg--Landau equation in ordered and chaotic cases. Ordered hole--defect dynamics occurs when an unstable hole invades a plane wave state and periodically nucleates defects…
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…
