A wave front and a wave back that spontaneously connect two hyperbolic equilibria, known as a heteroclinic wave loop, give rise to periodic waves with arbitrarily large spatial periods through the heteroclinic bifurcation. The nonlinear…
The FitzHugh-Nagumo equations are known to admit traveling front solutions in one spatial dimension that are nonlinearly stable. This paper concerns the stability of traveling front solutions propagating on cylindrical surfaces. It is shown…
We establish sharp nonlinear stability results for fronts that describe the creation of a periodic pattern through the invasion of an unstable state. The fronts we consider are critical, in the sense that they are expected to mediate…
The paper deals with the studies of the nonlinear wave solutions supported by the modified FitzHugh-Nagumo (mFHN) system. It was proved in our previous work that the model, under certain conditions, possesses a set of soliton-like traveling…
The topic of this paper are nonlinear traveling waves occuring in a system of damped waves equations in one space variable. We extend the freezing method from first to second order equations in time. When applied to a Cauchy problem, this…
The FitzHugh-Nagumo equation, which was derived as a simplification of the Hodgkin-Huxley model for nerve impulse propagation, has been extensively studied as a paradigmatic activator-inhibitor system. We consider the version of this system…

We consider the nonlinear Schr{\"o}dinger equation with a harmonic potential in the presence of two combined energy-subcritical power nonlinearities. We assume that the larger power is defocusing, and the smaller power is focusing. Such a…
We discuss bichromatic (two-color) front solutions to the bistable Nagumo lattice differential equation. Such fronts connect the stable spatially homogeneous equilibria with spatially heterogeneous 2-periodic equilibria and hence are not…

We prove the existence of non-trivial standing wave solutions of the complex Ginzburg-Landau equation $\phi_t - e^{i\theta}(\rho I- \Delta) \varphi - e^{i\gamma} |\phi |^\alpha \varphi =0 $ in $\Rn$, where $(N-2)\alpha <4$, $\theta ,\gamma…
We investigate the properties of standing waves to a nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation with inverse-square potential on the half-line. We first establish the existence of standing waves. Then, by a variational characterization of the ground…
We demonstrate that, in contrast with what was previously believed, multi-hump solitary waves can be stable. By means of linear stability analysis and numerical simulations, we investigate the stability of two- and three-hump solitary waves…
Patterns and waves are basic and important phenomena that govern the dynamics of physical and biological systems. A common theme in investigating such systems is to identify the intrinsic factors responsible for such self-organization. The…

In this paper we establish the orbital stability of standing wave solutions associated to the one-dimensional Schr\"odinger-Kirchhoff equation. The presence of a mixed term gives us more dispersion, and consequently, a different scenario…
