The bifurcating solutions are in two main classes, axisymmetric (pearling), and nonaxisymmetric (coiling, buckling, and wrinkling), and depending on the spontaneous curvature and the prescribed periodicity along the cylinder axis we obtain different stabilities of the bifurcating branches, and different secondary bifurcations. } }

The model admits two such codimension-two interactions, both with a subcritical Turing branch that is responsible for the presence of spatially localized Turing states. The Hopf branch may also be subcritical. We uncover a large variety of spatially extended and spatially localized states in the vicinity of these points and by varying a third parameter show how disconnected branches of time-periodic spatially localized states can be â€œzipped upâ€ into snaking branches of time-periodic oscillations. These are of two types: a Turing state embedded in an oscillating background, and a breathing Turing state embedded in a non-oscillating background. Stable two-frequency states resembling a mixture of these two states are also identified. Our results are complemented by direct numerical simulations. The findings explain the origin of the large multiplicity of localized steady and oscillatory patterns arising from the Turingâ€“Hopf interaction and shed light on the competition between them.} }

@article{NMTMA-17-3, author = {Meiners, Alexander and Uecker, Hannes}, title = {Numerical Continuation and Bifurcation for Differential Geometric PDEs}, journal = {Numerical Mathematics: Theory, Methods and Applications}, year = {2024}, volume = {17}, number = {3}, pages = {555--606}, abstract = {We describe some differential geometric bifurcation problems and their treatment in the Matlab continuation and bifurcation toolbox pde2path. The continuation steps consist in solving the PDEs for the normal displacement of an immersed surface $X âŠ‚\mathbb{R}^3,$ with bifurcation detection and possible subsequent branch switching. The examples include minimal surfaces such as Enneperâ€™s surface and a Schwarz-P-family, some non-zero constant mean curvature surfaces such as liquid bridges, and some 4th order biomembrane models. In all of these we find interesting symmetry-breaking bifurcations. A few of these are (semi)analytically known and hence used as benchmarks. }, issn = {2079-7338}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.4208/nmtma.OA-2024-0005}, url = {https://cloud.uol.de/s/FBYieM3nAFZp6CQ} }
