Integrity of layered structures, extensively used in modern industry, strongly depends on the quality of their interfaces; poor adhesion or delamination can lead to a failure of the structure. Can nonlinear waves help us to control the…

In this work we revisit the existence, stability and dynamics of unstable traveling solitary waves in the context of lattice dynamical systems. We consider a nonlinear lattice of an $\alpha$-Fermi-Pasta-Ulam type with the additional feature…

The classic problem of the dynamic evolution of Langmuir electron waves in a collisionless plasma and their Landau damping is cast as a second-order, self-adjoint problem with a continuum spectrum of real and positive squared frequencies.…

The growth rate of the filamentation instability triggered when a diluted cold electron beam passes through a cold plasma is evaluated using the quantum hydrodynamic equations. Compared with a cold fluid model, quantum effects reduce both…

The occurrence of the modulational instability (MI) in transverse dust lattice waves propagating in a one-dimensional dusty plasma crystal is investigated. The amplitude modulation mechanism, which is related to the intrinsic nonlinearity…

Pattern formation in biological, chemical and physical problems has received considerable attention, with much attention paid to dissipative systems. For example, the Ginzburg--Landau equation is a normal form that describes pattern…

Nonlinear instabilities are responsible for spontaneous pattern formation in a vast number of natural and engineered systems ranging from biology to galaxies build-up. We propose a new instability mechanism leading to pattern formation in…

The evolution of adiabatic waves with autoresonant trapped particles is described within the Lagrangian model developed in Paper I, under the assumption that the action distribution of these particles is conserved, and, in particular, that…

A generalized plasma model having warm ions, iso-thermal electrons, super-thermal electrons and positrons is considered to theoretically investigate the modulational instability (MI) of ion-acoustic waves (IAWs). A standard nonlinear…

Using simple kinematics, we propose a general theory of linear wave interactions between the interfacial waves of a two dimensional (2D), inviscid, multi-layered fluid system. The strength of our formalism is that one does not have to…

We consider the nonlinear stability of spectrally stable periodic waves in the Lugiato-Lefever equation (LLE), a damped nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation with forcing that arises in nonlinear optics. So far, nonlinear stability of such…

The thermomagnetic instability of the critical state in superconductors is analysed with account of the dissipation and dispersion. The possibility is demonstrated of the existance of a nonlinear shok wave describing the final stage of the…

We consider the multiple scattering of a scalar wave in a disordered medium with a weak nonlinearity of Kerr type. The perturbation theory, developed to calculate the temporal autocorrelation function of scattered wave, fails at short…

In a companion paper, we established nonlinear stability with detailed diffusive rates of decay of spectrally stable periodic traveling-wave solutions of reaction diffusion systems under small perturbations consisting of a nonlocalized…

We show variationally that instability of the ferromagnetic state in the Hubbard model is largely controlled by softening of a long-wavelength spin-wave excitation, except in the over-doped strong-coupling region where the…

A nonlinear Schrodinger equation arising from light propagation down an inhomogeneous medium is considered. The inhomogeneity is reflected through a non-uniform coefficient of the non-linear term in the equation. In particular, a…

We consider linear instability of solitary waves of several classes of dispersive long wave models. They include generalizations of KDV, BBM, regularized Boussinesq equations, with general dispersive operators and nonlinear terms. We obtain…

We consider longwave mode of the interface instability in the system comprising of two immiscible fluid layers. The fluids fill out plane horizontal cavity which is subjected to horizontal harmonic vibration. The analysis is performed…

It is well known that the linear stability of solutions of partial differential equations which are integrable can be very efficiently investigated by means of spectral methods. We present here a direct construction of the eigenmodes of the…

It is shown that the properties of the modulational instability of partially coherent waves propagating in a nonlinear Kerr medium depend crucially on the profile of the incoherent field spectrum. Under certain conditions, the incoherence…
