The Complex Ginzburg-Landau Equation

I consider a generic oscillator model, the complexGinzburg-Landau equation:

At = (1 + ib)Axx + A − (1 + ic)|A|2A.

I will look exclusively at b = 0. Then writing

A(x , t) = e−iat [u(x , t) + iv(x , t)]

gives a reaction-diffusion system of “λ–ω” type:

∂u∂t

=∂2u∂x2 + (1 − r2)u − (a + cr2)v

∂v∂t

=∂2v∂x2 + (a + cr2)u + (1 − r2)v

where r =√

u2 + v2

This is the normal form of an oscillatory reaction-diffusionsystem with scalar diffusion close to a supercritical Hopf

Amplitude and Phase Equations

To study these equations, it is helpful to use the variablesr(x , t) =

√u2 + v2 and θ(x , t) = tan−1(v/u), giving

rt = rxx − rθ2x + r(1 − r2)

θt = θxx +2rxθx

r+ a − cr2

There is a family of wavetrain solutions (0 < r∗ < 1):{

r = r∗

θ =[(a + cr∗ 2)t ±

√(1 − r∗ 2)x

]}

u = r∗ cos

[(a + cr∗ 2)t ±

]

v = r∗ sin[(a + cr∗ 2)t ±

Question: How can an unstable wavetrain persist between thesources and sinks?

Answer: Any growing perturbations moves, and is absorbedwhen it reaches a sink.

Previous Mathematical Work on Sources and Sinks

Sources are “Nozaki–Bekki” holes (Nozaki & Bekki, Phys. Lett. A

110: 133-135, 1985), on which the literature is extensive(> 100 citations).

Sinks are also well studied, though only numerically.

But patterns of sources and sinks have received almost noattention.

One open question is: are there constraints on thedistances separating sources and sinks?

Summary of Main Results

Main Results:

For behaviour induced by Dirichlet boundary conditions,the transition from a wavetrain to spatiotemporal disorderoccurs via source-sink patterns.

The separations between a source and its neighbouringsinks, L− and L+, are constrained to lie on one of adiscrete infinite sequence of curves in the L−–L+ plane(to leading order as velocity → 0 and separations → ∞).

Implications for Real Systems

Implications for Real Systems:

Physics Experiments are sufficiently precise that theprediction of discrete spacings are testable.

Ecology Empirical testing is not feasible.

In the convectively unstable parameterregime, wavetrains will only be detected infield data if the spatial scale of the data issmall compared to source-sink separations.
