The World of the Complex Ginzburg-Landau Equation
نویسنده
چکیده
The cubic complex Ginzburg-Landau equation is one of the most-studied nonlinear equations in the physics community. It describes a vast variety of phenomena from nonlinear waves to secondorder phase transitions, from superconductivity, superfluidity and Bose-Einstein condensation to liquid crystals and strings in field theory. Our goal is to give an overview of various phenomena described the complex Ginzburg-Landau equation in one, two and three dimensions from the point of view of condensed matter physicists. Our approach is to study the relevant solutions to get an insight into nonequilibrium phenomena in spatially extended systems.

متن کاملOn elliptic solutions of the cubic complex one-dimensional Ginzburg–Landau equation
The cubic complex one-dimensional Ginzburg–Landau equation is considered. Using the Hone’s method, based on the use of the Laurent-series solutions and the residue theorem, we have proved that this equation has neither elliptic standing wave no elliptic travelling wave solution. This result amplifies the Hone’s result, that this equation has no elliptic travelling wave solution.
متن کاملNonequilibrium dynamics in the complex Ginzburg-Landau equation.
Results from a comprehensive analytical and numerical study of nonequilibrium dynamics in the two-dimensional complex Ginzburg-Landau equation have been presented. In particular, spiral defects have been used to characterize the domain growth law and the evolution morphology. An asymptotic analysis of the single-spiral correlation function shows a sequence of singularities-analogous to those se...
