A spatiotemporal plot of a simulation of the Kuramoto–Sivashinsky equation

In mathematics, the Kuramoto–Sivashinsky equation (also called the KS equation or flame equation) is a fourth-order nonlinear partial differential equation. It is named after Yoshiki Kuramoto and Gregory Sivashinsky, who derived the equation in the late 1970s to model the diffusive–thermal instabilities in a laminar flame front.[1][2][3] The Kuramoto–Sivashinsky equation is known for its chaotic behavior.[4][5]

Definition

The 1d version of the Kuramoto–Sivashinsky equation is

An alternate form is

obtained by differentiating with respect to and substituting . This is the form used in fluid dynamics applications.[6]

The Kuramoto–Sivashinsky equation can also be generalized to higher dimensions. In spatially periodic domains, one possibility is

where is the Laplace operator, and is the biharmonic operator.

Properties

The Cauchy problem for the 1d Kuramoto–Sivashinsky equation is well-posed in the sense of Hadamard—that is, for given initial data , there exists a unique solution that depends continuously on the initial data.[7]

The 1d Kuramoto–Sivashinsky equation possesses Galilean invariance—that is, if is a solution, then so is , where is an arbitrary constant.[8] Physically, since is a velocity, this change of variable describes a transformation into a frame that is moving with constant relative velocity . On a periodic domain, the equation also has a reflection symmetry: if is a solution, then is also a solution.[8]

Solutions

Solutions of the Kuramoto–Sivashinsky equation possess rich dynamical characteristics.[8][9][10] Considered on a periodic domain , the dynamics undergoes a series of bifurcations as the domain size is increased, culminating in the onset of chaotic behavior. Depending on the value of , solutions may include equilibria, relative equilibria, and traveling waves—all of which typically become dynamically unstable as is increased. In particular, the transition to chaos occurs by a cascade of period-doubling bifurcations.[10]

After some time the system returns to its initial state, only translated slightly (~4 units) to the left. This particular solution has three unstable directions and three marginal directions.

Applications

Applications of the Kuramoto–Sivashinsky equation extend beyond its original context of flame propagation and reaction–diffusion systems. These additional applications include flows in pipes and at interfaces, plasmas, chemical reaction dynamics, and models of ion-sputtered surfaces.[6][11]
