Nonlinear self-adapting wave patterns

We propose a new type of traveling wave pattern, one that can adapt to the size of physical system in which it is embedded. Such a system arises when the initial state has an instability for a range of wavevectors, k , that extends down to k  = 0, connecting at that point to two symmetry modes of th...
