Abstract

The stability of localized structures in the complex Ginzburg-Landau equation was analyzed. A matching approach was used in order to calculate the asymptotic value of the gradient of the phase of the localized structure. A linear analysis which gave an indication for the existence of pulses with an oscillating modulus was also presented.
