Localised solutions of the parametrically driven Ginzburg-Landau and nonlinear Schrӧdinger equations
Includes bibliographical references. === This thesis deals with localised solutions of the parametrically driven Ginzburg-Landau equation and its nonlinear Schrӧdinger limit. We begin with a detailed analysis of the Faraday Resonance experiment, in which the driven complex Ginzburg-Landau equation (...
