Stable periodic solutions to Lambda-Omega lattice dynamical systems

摘要

In this manuscript we consider the stability of periodic solutions to Lambda-Omega lattice dynamical systems. In particular, we show that an appropriate ansatz casts the lattice dynamical system as an infinite-dimensional fast-slow differential equation. In a neighborhood of the periodic solution an invariant slow manifold is proven to exist, and that this slow manifold is uniformly exponentially attracting. The dynamics of solutions on the slow manifold become significantly more complicated and require a more delicate treatment. We present sufficient conditions to guarantee convergence on the slow manifold which is algebraic, as opposed to exponential, in the slow-time variable. Of particular interest to our work in this manuscript is the stability of a rotating wave solution, recently found to exist in the Lambda-Omega systems studied herein. (C) 2019 Elsevier Inc.
