Stability and local bifurcations of single-mode equilibrium states of the Ginzburg-Landau variational equation

Abstract

One of the versions of the generalized variational Ginzburg-Landau equation is considered, supplemented by periodic boundary conditions. For such a boundary value problem, the question of existence, stability, and local bifurcations of single-mode equilibrium states is studied. It is shown that in the case of a nearly critical threefold zero eigenvalue, in the problem of stability of single-mode spatially inhomogeneous equilibrium states, subcritical bifurcations of two-dimensional invariant tori filled with spatially inhomogeneous equilibrium states are realized. The analysis of the stated problem is based on such methods of the theory of infinite-dimensional dynamical systems as the theory of invariant manifolds and the apparatus of normal forms. Asymptotic formulas are obtained for the solutions that form invariant tori.
