چکیده

We investigate the bifurcation structure of the Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equation with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions. Using hidden symmetry principles, based on an extended problem with periodic boundary conditions and O(2) symmetry, we show that the zero solution exhibits two kinds of pitchfork bifurcations: one that breaks the reflection symmetry of the system with Dirichlet boundary conditions and one that breaks a shift-reflect symmetry of the extended system. Using Lyapunov-Schmidt reduction, we show both to be supercritical. We extend the primary branches by means of numerical continuation, and show that they lose stability in pitchfork, transcritical or Hopf bifurcations. Tracking the corresponding secondary branches reveals an interval of the viscosity parameter in which up to four stable equilibria and time-periodic solutions coexist. Since the study of the extended problem is indispensible for the explanation of the bifurcation structure, the Kuramoto-Sivashinsky problem with Dirichlet boundary conditions provides an elegant manifestation of hidden symmetry.

Inertial Manifolds for the Kuramoto-sivashinsky Equation

A new theorem is applied to the Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equation with L-periodic boundary conditions, proving the existence of an asymptotically complete inertial manifold attracting all initial data. Combining this result with a new estimate of the size of the globally absorbing set yields an improved estimate of the dimension, N ∼ L.
