Abstract

The description of the spatio-temporal dynamics of an extended active/dispersive medium can be simplified considerably if the dynamics is dominated by a fixed number of solitary pulses separated by radiation-free flat substrates. Radiation is generated in a noise-free environment when excess mass drains out of a pulse in the form of a spreading shelf and the radiation grows rapidly by feeding on the active substrate. However, this growth can be suppressed if the localized radiation packet is absorbed by a second pulse. It is shown that both the generation and suppression mechanisms can be quantitatively understood by analyzing the essential spectrum and a peculiar discrete spectrum of the equilibrium pulse called resonance pole. An explicit criterion is then developed and verified numerically for when the spatio-temporal dynamics of the generalized Kuramoto-Sivashinsky (gK S) equation is dominated by robust solitary pulses.
