Pattern formation in individual-based systems with time-varying parameters.
We study the patterns generated in finite-time sweeps across symmetry-breaking bifurcations in individual-based models. Similar to the well-known Kibble-Zurek scenario of defect formation, large-scale patterns are generated when model parameters are varied slowly, whereas fast sweeps produce a large number of small domains. The symmetry breaking is triggered by intrinsic noise, originating from...
متن کاملSlowly varying control parameters, delayed bifurcations, and the stability of spikes in reactiondiffusion systems
We present three examples of delayed bifurcations for spike solutions of reaction-diffusion systems. The delay effect results as the system passes slowly from a stable to an unstable regime, and was previously analyzed in the context of ODE’s in [P.Mandel and T.Erneux, J.Stat.Phys 48(5-6) pp.1059-1070, 1987]. It was found that the instability would not be fully realized until the system had ent...
متن کاملPattern Formation in Systems with One Spatially Distributed Species
We describe a three-species mechanism for spatial pattern formation in which only one species spatially moves. We show that a bifurca-tion to traveling or standing waves occurs. We contrast this mechanism for pattern formation with the better known cases where more than one species moves.
متن کاملPattern Formation and Spatial Chaos in Spatially
We consider an array of scalar nonlinear dynamical systems _ u = f(u), arranged on the sites of a spatial lattice, for example on the integer lattice ZZ2 in the plane IR2. We impose a coupling between nearest neighbors, and also between next-nearest neighbors, in the form of discrete Laplacians with +and -shaped stencils. These couplings can be of any strength, and of either sign (positive or n...
متن کاملPattern formation in spatially forced thermal convection
In this paper, we present experimental results on the interplay between two different symmetry breaking mechanisms in a pattern forming system, namely inclined layer convection (ILC) with a spatially modulated heated plate. By varying the relative strength and relative orientation, we explored in detail the interplay of these symmetry breaking mechanisms. We found a stabilization of spatio-temp...
