In this paper, we study a phenomenological model for pattern formation in electroconvection, and the effect of noise on the pattern. As such model we consider an anisotropic Swift-Hohenberg equation adding an additive noise. We prove the…
In pattern-forming systems, localized patterns are states of intermediate complexity between fully extended ordered patterns and completely irregular patterns. They are formed by stationary fronts enclosing an ordered pattern inside an…

We revisit the Swift-Hohenberg model for two-dimensional hexagonal patterns in the bistability region where hexagons coexist with the uniform quiescent state. We both analyze the law of motion of planar interfaces (separating hexagons and…
We consider the conservative complex Swift-Hohenberg equation, which belongs to the family of nonlinear fourth-order dispersive Schr\"odinger equations. In contrast to the well-studied one-dimensional dissipative Swift-Hohenberg equation,…
