Formation of square lattices in coupled pattern-forming systems

A wide variety of natural and labo-ratory systems can produce patterns of ripples, hexagons, or squares. The formation of stable square patterns from partial differential equation models requires specific cubic nonlinearities involving higher-order derivatives. Motivated by plant phyllotaxis, we dem...
