Transition to longitudinal instability of detonation waves is generically associated with Hopf bifurcation to time-periodic galloping solutions

Benjamin Texier, Kevin Zumbrun

We show that transition to longitudinal instability of strong detonation solutions of reactive compressible Navier--Stokes equations is generically associated with Hopf bifurcation…

Conditional stability of unstable viscous shocks

Kevin Zumbrun

Continuing a line of investigation initiated by Texier and Zumbrun on dynamics of viscous shock and detonation waves, we show that a linearly unstable Lax-type viscous shock soluti…

Nonlinear stability of time-periodic viscous shocks

Margaret Beck, Bjorn Sandstede, Kevin Zumbrun

In order to understand the nonlinear stability of many types of time-periodic travelling waves on unbounded domains, one must overcome two main difficulties: the presence of embedd…
