Theories of localised pattern formation are important to understand a broad range of natural patterns, but are less well-understood than more established mechanisms of domain-filling pattern formation. Here, we extend recent work on pattern…
A characterization of textured patterns, referred to as the disorder function \bar\delta(\beta), is used to study properties of patterns generated in the Swift-Hohenberg equation (SHE). It is shown to be an intensive,…
We study numerically the cubic-quintic-septic Swift-Hohenberg (SH357) equation on bounded one-dimensional domains. Under appropriate conditions stripes with wave number $k\approx 1$ bifurcate supercritically from the zero state and form…
Motivated by previous results showing that the addition of a linear dispersive term to the two-dimensional Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equation has a dramatic effect on the pattern formation, we study the Swift-Hohenberg equation with an added…
We present a general approach to prove the existence, both locally and globally in amplitude, of fully localised multi-dimensional patterns in partial differential equations containing a compact spatial heterogeneity. While one-dimensional…
We rigorously prove the bifurcation of slow-moving pattern interfaces with general direction in a two-dimensional Swift-Hohenberg-type model close to a Turing instability for a large class of nonlinearities. These interfaces describe the…
We consider the discrete Swift-Hohenberg equation with cubic and quintic nonlinearity, obtained from discretizing the spatial derivatives of the Swift-Hohenberg equation using central finite differences. We investigate the discretization…
The Swift-Hohenberg equation describes an instability which forms finite-wavenumber patterns near onset. We study this equation posed with a spatial inhomogeneity; a jump-type parameter that renders the zero solution stable for $x<0$ and…
I introduce an innovative methodology for deriving numerical models of systems of partial differential equations which exhibit the evolution of spatial patterns. The new approach directly produces a discretisation for the evolution of the…
We study the existence of patterns (nontrivial, stationary solutions) for one-dimensional Swift-Hohenberg Equation in a directional quenching scenario, that is, on $x\leq 0$ the energy potential associated to the equation is bistable,…
We study the Swift-Hohenberg equation - a paradigm model for pattern formation - with "large" spatially periodic coefficients and find a Turing bifurcation that generates patterns whose leading order form is a Bloch wave modulated by…
The process of pattern formation in the two dimensional Swift-Hohenberg equation is examined through numerical and analytic methods. Dynamic scaling relationships are developed for the collective ordering of convective rolls in the limit of…
Recent work on the behaviour of localised states in pattern forming partial differential equations has focused on the traditional model Swift-Hohenberg equation which, as a result of its simplicity, has additional structure --- it is…
Stochastic partial differential equations (SPDE) on graphs were introduced by Cerrai and Freidlin [Ann. Inst. Henri Poincar\'e Probab. Stat. 53 (2017) 865-899]. This class of stochastic equations in infinite dimensions provides a minimal…
The coincidence of a pitchfork and Hopf bifurcation at a Takens-Bogdanov (TB) bifurcation occurs in many physical systems such as double-diffusive convection, binary convection and magnetoconvection. Analysis of the associated normal form,…
Steady states of the Swift--Hohenberg equation are studied. For the associated four--dimensional ODE we prove that on the energy level $E=0$ two smooth branches of even periodic solutions are created through the saddle-node bifurcation. We…
We consider the steady Swift - Hohenberg partial differential equation. It is a one-parameter family of PDE on the plane, modeling for example Rayleigh - B\'enard convection. For values of the parameter near its critical value, we look for…
