Abstract

We study stationary, localized solutions in the complex subcritical Ginzburg-Landau equation in the region where there exists coexistence of homogeneous attractors. Using a matching approach, we report on the fact that the appearance of pulses are related to a saddle-node bifurcation. Numerical simulations are in good agreement with our theoretical predictions.
