Stability of Periodic Kuramoto-Sivashinsky Waves

Blake Barker, Mathew A. Johnson, Pascal Noble +2

In this note, we announce a general result resolving the long-standing question of nonlinear modulational stability, or stability with respect to localized perturbations, of period…

A numerical stability investigation of strong ZND detonations for Majda's model

Blake Barker, Kevin zumbrun

We carry out a systematic numerical stability analysis of ZND detonations of Majda's model with Arrhenius-type ignition function, a simplified model for reacting flow, as heat rele…

Efficient numerical stability analysis of detonation waves in ZND

Jeffrey Humpherys, Kevin Zumbrun

As described in the classic works of Lee--Stewart and Short--Stewart, the numerical evaluation of linear stability of planar detonation waves is a computationally intensive problem…

Convergence of Hill's method for nonselfadjoint operators

Mathew A. Johnson, Kevin Zumbrun

By the introduction of a generalized Evans function defined by an appropriate 2-modified Fredholm determinant, we give a simple proof of convergence in location and multiplicity of…

Whitham Averaged Equations and Modulational Stability of Periodic Traveling Waves of a Hyperbolic-Parabolic Balance Law

Blake Barker, Mathew A. Johnson, Pascal Noble +2

In this note, we report on recent findings concerning the spectral and nonlinear stability of periodic traveling wave solutions of hyperbolic-parabolic systems of balance laws, as…
