The mathematical theory of periodic travelling waves is most fully
developed for partial differential equations, but these solutions
also occur in a number of other types of mathematical system,
including
integrodifferential equations,[5][6]
integrodifference equations,[7]
coupled map lattices[8]
and
cellular automata[9][10]
As well as being important in their own right, periodic travelling
waves are significant as the
one-dimensional equivalent of
spiral waves and target patterns in
two-dimensionalspace,
and of scroll waves in three-dimensionalspace.
Periodic travelling waves were first studied in the 1970s. A key
early research paper was that of Nancy Kopell and Lou
Howard[1] which proved several fundamental
results on periodic
travelling waves in reaction-diffusion equations. This was
followed by significant research activity during the 1970s and early 1980s. There was then a period of inactivity, before interest in periodic travelling waves was renewed by mathematical work on their generation,[11][12]
and by their detection in ecology, in spatiotemporal data sets on
cyclic populations.[13][14] Since the mid-2000s, research on periodic travelling waves has benefitted from new computational
methods for studying their stability and absolute stability.[15][16]
Families of periodic travelling waves
The existence of periodic travelling waves usually depends on the
parameter values in a mathematical equation. If there is a periodic
travelling wave solution, then there is typically a family of such
solutions, with different wave speeds. For partial differential
equations, periodic travelling waves typically occur for a continuous
range of wave speeds.[1]
Stability of periodic travelling waves
An important question is whether a periodic travelling wave is
stable or unstable as a solution
of the original mathematical system. For partial differential
equations, it is typical that the wave family subdivides into
stable
and unstable
parts.[1][17][18]
For unstable periodic
travelling waves, an important subsidiary question is whether they are
absolutely or convectively unstable, meaning that there are or are not
stationary growing linear modes.[19] This issue has only been
resolved for a few partial differential equations.[2][15][16]
Generation of periodic travelling waves
A number of mechanisms of periodic travelling wave generation are now
well established. These include:
Heterogeneity: spatial noise in parameter values can generate a series of bands of periodic travelling waves.[20] This is important in applications to oscillatory chemical reactions, where impurities can cause target patterns or spiral waves, which are two-dimensional generalisations of periodic travelling waves. This process provided the motivation for much of the work on periodic travelling waves in the 1970s and early 1980s. Landscape heterogeneity has also been proposed as a cause of the periodic travelling waves seen in ecology.[21]
Waves generated by a Dirichlet boundary conditionWaves generated by a Dirichlet boundary condition on a central holeDomain boundaries with Dirichlet or Robin boundary conditions.[28][29][30] This is potentially important in ecology, where Robin or Dirichlet conditions correspond to a boundary between habitat and a surrounding hostile environment. However definitive empirical evidence on the cause of waves is hard to obtain for ecological systems.
Migration driven by pursuit and evasion.[31] This may be significant in ecology.
Migration between sub-populations,[32] which again has potential ecological significance.
In all of these cases, a key question is which member of the periodic travelling wave family is selected. For most mathematical systems this remains an open problem.
Periodic travelling waves and spatiotemporal chaos
It is common that for some parameter values, the periodic
travelling waves arising from a wave generation mechanism are
unstable. In such cases the solution usually evolves to spatiotemporal
chaos.[11][27] Thus the solution involves a spatiotemporal transition to chaos via the periodic travelling wave.
Lambda-omega systems and the complex Ginzburg-Landau equation
There are two particular mathematical systems that serve as prototypes
for periodic travelling waves, and which have been fundamental to the
development of mathematical understanding and theory. These are the
"lambda-omega" class of reaction-diffusion equations[1]
(A is complex-valued). Note that these systems are the same if
λ(r)=1-r2, ω(r)=-cr2 and
b=0. Both systems can be simplified by rewriting the equations in
terms of the amplitude (r or |A|) and the phase
(arctan(v/u) or arg A). Once the equations have been
rewritten in this way, it is easy to see that solutions with constant
amplitude are periodic travelling waves, with the phase being a linear
function of space and time. Therefore u
and v, or Re(A) and Im(A), are sinusoidal
functions of space and time.
These exact solutions for the periodic travelling wave families enable
a great deal of further analytical study. Exact conditions for the
stability of the periodic travelling waves can be
found,[1][2]
and the condition for absolute stability can be reduced to the
solution of a simple polynomial.[15][16] Also exact solutions have been obtained for
the selection problem for waves generated by
invasions[22][33]
and by zero Dirichlet boundary conditions.[34][35]
In the latter case, for the complex Ginzburg-Landau equation, the overall solution is a stationary
Nozaki-Bekki hole.[34][36]
Much of the work on periodic travelling waves in the complex
Ginzburg-Landau equation is in the physics literature, where they
are usually known as plane waves.
Numerical computation of periodic travelling waves and their stability
For most mathematical equations, analytical
calculation of periodic travelling wave solutions is not possible, and
therefore it is necessary to perform numerical
computations. For partial differential equations, denote by x
and t the (one-dimensional) space and time
variables, respectively. Then periodic travelling waves are functions
of the travelling wave variable z=x-ct. Substituting
this solution form into the partial differential equations gives a
system of ordinary differential equations known as the travelling
wave equations. Periodic travelling waves correspond to limit cycles of these equations, and this provides the basis for
numerical computations. The standard
computational approach is numerical continuation of the travelling wave equations. One first
performs a continuation of a steady state to locate a Hopf bifurcation point. This is the starting point for a branch (family)
of periodic travelling wave solutions, which one can follow by
numerical continuation. In some (unusual) cases both end points of
a branch (family) of periodic travelling wave solutions are
homoclinic solutions,[37] in
which case one must use an external starting point, such as a
numerical solution of the partial differential equations.
Periodic travelling wave stability can also be
calculated numerically,
by computing the spectrum. This is
made easier by the fact that the spectrum of periodic travelling wave solutions of partial
differential equations consists entirely of essential spectrum.[38]
Possible numerical
approaches include Hill's method[39] and numerical
continuation of the spectrum.[15] One
advantage of the latter approach is that it can be extended to calculate
boundaries in parameter space between stable
and unstable
waves[40]
Examples of phenomena resembling periodic travelling waves that have
been found empirically include the following.
Many natural populations undergo multi-year cycles of abundance. In some cases these population cycles are spatially organised into a periodic travelling wave. This behaviour has been found in voles in Fennoscandia[13] and Northern UK,[14]geometrid moths in Northern Fennoscandia,[42] larch budmoths in the European Alps[21] and red grouse in Scotland.[43]
In semi-deserts, vegetation often self-organises into spatial patterns.[44] On slopes, this typically consists of stripes of vegetation running parallel to the contours, separated by stripes of bare ground; this type of banded vegetation is sometimes known as Tiger bush. Many observational studies have reported slow movement of the stripes in the uphill direction.[45] However in a number of other cases the data points clearly to stationary patterns,[46] and the question of movement remains controversial. The conclusion that is most consistent with available data is that some banded vegetation patterns move while others do not.[47] Patterns in the former category have the form of periodic travelling waves.
Travelling bands occur in oscillatory and excitable chemical reactions. They were observed in the 1970s in the Belousov-Zhabotinsky reaction[48] and they formed an important motivation for the mathematical work done on periodic travelling waves at that time. More recent research has also exploited the capacity to link the experimentally observed bands with mathematical theory of periodic travelling waves via detailed modelling.[49]
In hydrodynamics, convection patterns often involve periodic travelling waves. Specific instances include binary fluid convection[52] and heated wire convection.[53]
Patterns of periodic travelling wave form occur in the "printer's instability", in which the thin gap between two rotating acentric cylinders is filled with oil.[54]
