We consider localized perturbations to spatially homogeneous oscillations in dimension 3 using the complex Ginzburg-Landau equation as a prototype. In particular, we will focus on heterogeneities that locally change the phase of the…

We investigate the effect of spatial inhomogeneity on perfectly periodic, self-organized striped patterns in spatially extended systems. We demonstrate that inhomogeneities select a specific translate of the striped patterns and induce…

We discuss the use of differential sampling method to image local perturbations in anisotropic periodic layers, extending earlier works on the isotropic case. We study in particular the new interior transmission problem that is associated…

It is shown how the bilinear differential equations satisfied by Fredholm determinants of integral operators appearing as spectral distribution functions for random matrices may be deduced from the associated systems of nonautonomous…

By coupling a Hamiltonian mechanical system with a linear Hamiltonian field theory one obtains an infinite-dimensional Hamiltonian system with regularizing nonlinearity, where the underlying phase space is given by the product of a…

Representing 3D shape deformations by linear models in high-dimensional space has many applications in computer vision and medical imaging, such as shape-based interpolation or segmentation. Commonly, using Principal Components Analysis a…

We model pacemaker effects of an algebraically localized heterogeneity in a 1 dimensional array of oscillators with nonlocal coupling. We assume the oscillators obey simple phase dynamics and that the array is large enough so that it can be…

In an earlier paper, we showed that the moduli space of deformations of a smooth, compact, orientable special Lagrangian submanifold L in a symplectic manifold X with a non-integrable almost complex structure is a smooth manifold of…

Irreducible second-order Darboux transformations are applied to the periodic Schrodinger's operators. It is shown that for the pairs of factorization energies inside of the same forbidden band they can create new non-singular potentials…

Motivated by the dynamics of defects in planar pattern-forming systems, we study Fredholm properties of elliptic operators with singular coefficients in weighted Sobolev spaces. In particular, we consider a family of doubly weighted spaces…

Motivated by Fredholm theory, we develop a framework to establish the convergence of spectral methods for operator equations $\mathcal L u = f$. The framework posits the existence of a left-Fredholm regulator for $\mathcal L$ and the…

Nonlinear effects on the early stage of phase ordering are studied using Adomian's decomposition method for the Ginzburg-Landau equation for a nonconserved order parameter. While the long-time regime and the linear behavior at short times…

The influence of a periodic spatial forcing on the pattern formation in a generalized Cahn-Hilliard model is studied in order to describe the pattern formation in Langmuir-Blodgett transfer onto prestructured substrates. The occurring…

We study of the formation of pattern-forming fronts in the presence of a rigidly-propagating parameter ramp which is slowly-varying in space. In the context of the prototypical supercritical complex Ginzburg-Landau equation, we show that…

We study perturbations of linear differential equations, deriving explicit series solutions, using Dyson-type expansions. We analyze the monodromy of deformed solutions in a number of examples, and relate this to cocycles in a cohomological…

We study the existence of target patterns in oscillatory media with weak local coupling and in the presence of an impurity, or defect. We model these systems using a viscous eikonal equation posed on the plane, and represent the defect as a…

Local linear instability refers to the linearized discrete operator exhibiting perturbation growth exceeding that of the corresponding continuous linearized problem. In the context of nonlinear entropy-stable discretizations, we argue that…

We study cocycles (non-autonomous dynamical systems) satisfying a certain squeezing condition with respect to the quadratic form of a bounded self-adjoint operator acting in a Hilbert space. We prove that (under additional assumptions) the…

Regular spatial structures emerge in a wide range of different dynamics characterized by local and/or nonlocal coupling terms. In several research fields this has spurred the study of many models, which can explain pattern formation. The…

The real Ginzburg-Landau equation arises as a universal amplitude equation for the description of pattern-forming systems exhibiting a Turing bifurcation. It possesses spatially periodic roll solutions which are known to be stable against…
