Abstract

We performed an investigation of the stability of fixed points in the complex Swift- Hohenberg equation using a variational formulation. The analysis is based on fixed points Euler-Lagrange equations and analytically showed that the Jacobian eigenvalues touched the imaginary axis and in general, Hopf bifurcation arises. The eigenvalues undergo a stability criterion in order to have Hopf's stability. Trial functions and linear loss dispersion parameter ε are responsible for the existence of stable pulse solutions in this system. We study behavior of the stable soliton-like solutions as we vary a bifurcation ε.
