Subcritical modulational instability and transition to chaos from periodicity
arXiv:nlin/0405064 · doi:10.1016/j.physleta.2004.03.068
Abstract
This study shows that a modulationally destabilized monochromatic wave in a fluid system may undergo a subcritical bifurcation directly into chaos, when dissipation is weak enough. Analysis is made within the framework of the complex Ginzburg-Landau equations.
