A reduced model for domain walls in soft ferromagnetic films at the cross-over from symmetric to asymmetric wall types

Lucas Döring, Radu Ignat, Felix Otto (2014)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

We study the Landau-Lifshitz model for the energy of multi-scale transition layers – called “domain walls” – in soft ferromagnetic films. Domain walls separate domains of constant magnetization vectors m α ± 𝕊 2 that differ by an angle 2 α . Assuming translation invariance tangential to the wall, our main result is the rigorous derivation of a reduced model for the energy of the optimal transition layer, which in a certain parameter regime confirms the experimental, numerical and physical predictions: The...

Analysis of pattern formation using numerical continuation

Vladimír Janovský (2022)

Applications of Mathematics

The paper deals with the issue of self-organization in applied sciences. It is particularly related to the emergence of Turing patterns. The goal is to analyze the domain size driven instability: We introduce the parameter L , which scales the size of the domain. We investigate a particular reaction-diffusion model in 1-D for two species. We consider and analyze the steady-state solution. We want to compute the solution branches by numerical continuation. The model in question has certain symmetries....

Critical points for reaction-diffusion system with one and two unilateral conditions

Jan Eisner, Jan Žilavý (2023)

Archivum Mathematicum

We show the location of so called critical points, i.e., couples of diffusion coefficients for which a non-trivial solution of a linear reaction-diffusion system of activator-inhibitor type on an interval with Neumann boundary conditions and with additional non-linear unilateral condition at one or two points on the boundary and/or in the interior exists. Simultaneously, we show the profile of such solutions.

Interaction of Turing and Hopf Modes in the Superdiffusive Brusselator Model Near a Codimension Two Bifurcation Point

J. C. Tzou, A. Bayliss, B.J. Matkowsky, V.A. Volpert (2010)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

Spatiotemporal patterns near a codimension-2 Turing-Hopf point of the one-dimensional superdiffusive Brusselator model are analyzed. The superdiffusive Brusselator model differs from its regular counterpart in that the Laplacian operator of the regular model is replaced by ∂α/∂|ξ|α, 1 < α < 2, an integro-differential operator that reflects the nonlocal behavior of superdiffusion. The order of the operator, α, is a measure of the rate of ...

Low-Dimensional Description of Pulses under the Action of Global Feedback Control

Y. Kanevsky, A. A. Nepomnyashchy (2012)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

The influence of a global delayed feedback control which acts on a system governed by a subcritical complex Ginzburg-Landau equation is considered. The method based on a variational principle is applied for the derivation of low-dimensional evolution models. In the framework of those models, one-pulse and two-pulse solutions are found, and their linear stability analysis is carried out. The application of the finite-dimensional model allows to reveal...

On the Origin of Chaos in the Belousov-Zhabotinsky Reaction in Closed and Unstirred Reactors

M. A. Budroni, M. Rustici, E. Tiezzi (2010)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

We investigate the origin of deterministic chaos in the Belousov–Zhabotinsky (BZ) reaction carried out in closed and unstirred reactors (CURs). In detail, we develop a model on the idea that hydrodynamic instabilities play a driving role in the transition to chaotic dynamics. A set of partial differential equations were derived by coupling the two variable Oregonator–diffusion system to the Navier–Stokes equations. This approach allows us to shed light on the correlation between chemical oscillations...

Pattern Formation Induced by Time-Dependent Advection

A. V. Straube, A. Pikovsky (2010)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

We study pattern-forming instabilities in reaction-advection-diffusion systems. We develop an approach based on Lyapunov-Bloch exponents to figure out the impact of a spatially periodic mixing flow on the stability of a spatially homogeneous state. We deal with the flows periodic in space that may have arbitrary time dependence. We propose a discrete in time model, where reaction, advection, and diffusion act as successive operators, and show that...

Patterns and Waves Generated by a Subcritical Instability in Systems with a Conservation Law under the Action of a Global Feedback Control

Y. Kanevsky, A.A. Nepomnyashchy (2010)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

A global feedback control of a system that exhibits a subcritical monotonic instability at a non-zero wavenumber (short-wave, or Turing instability) in the presence of a zero mode is investigated using a Ginzburg-Landau equation coupled to an equation for the zero mode. The method based on a variational principle is applied for the derivation of a low-dimensional evolution model. In the framework of this model the investigation of the system’s dynamics...

Systems of reaction-diffusion equations with spatially distributed hysteresis

Pavel Gurevich, Sergey Tikhomirov (2014)

Mathematica Bohemica

We study systems of reaction-diffusion equations with discontinuous spatially distributed hysteresis on the right-hand side. The input of the hysteresis is given by a vector-valued function of space and time. Such systems describe hysteretic interaction of non-diffusive (bacteria, cells, etc.) and diffusive (nutrient, proteins, etc.) substances leading to formation of spatial patterns. We provide sufficient conditions under which the problem is well posed in spite of the assumed discontinuity of...

The defocusing energy-critical Klein-Gordon-Hartree equation

Qianyun Miao, Jiqiang Zheng (2015)

Colloquium Mathematicae

We study the scattering theory for the defocusing energy-critical Klein-Gordon equation with a cubic convolution u t t - Δ u + u + ( | x | - 4 | u | ² ) u = 0 in spatial dimension d ≥ 5. We utilize the strategy of Ibrahim et al. (2011) derived from concentration compactness ideas to show that the proof of the global well-posedness and scattering can be reduced to disproving the existence of a soliton-like solution. Employing the technique of Pausader (2010), we consider a virial-type identity in the direction orthogonal to the momentum vector...
