Retracting fronts for the nonlinear complex heat equation

Réocreux, Guillaume · Risler, Emmanuel

Original · EN

The "nonlinear complex heat equation" Aₜ=i|A|²A+Axx was introduced by P. Coullet and L. Kramer as a model equation exhibiting travelling fronts induced by non-variational effects, called "retracting fronts". In this paper we study the existence of such fronts. They go by one-parameter families, bounded at one end by the slowest and "steepest" front among the family, a situation presenting striking analogies with front propagation into unstable states.
