Computation of bifurcated branches in a free boundary problem arising in combustion theory
We consider a parabolic Free Boundary Problem, with jump conditions at the interface. Its planar travelling-wave solutions are orbitally stable provided the bifurcation parameter does not exceed a critical value . The latter is the limit of a decreasing sequence of bifurcation points. The paper deals with the study of the bifurcated branches from the planar branch, for small . Our technique is based on the elimination of the unknown front, turning the problem into a one, to which...
