Stability of cylindrical and spherical crystals growing from a supersaturated solution (in Mullins-Sekerkas approximation) is considered using the maximum entropy production principle. The concept of the binodal of the nonequilibrium (morphological) phase transition is introduced for interpretation of the obtained results. The limits of the metastable regions are determined. The morphological phase diagrams of stable-unstable growth in the plane (surface energy, supersaturation) are given.

We analyse the stability of periodic, travelling-wave solutions to the Kawahara equation and some of its generalizations. We determine the parameter regime for which these solutions can exhibit resonance. By examining perturbations of small-amplitude solutions, we show that generalised resonance is a mechanism for high-frequency instabilities. We derive a quadratic equation which fully determines the stability region for these solutions. Focussing on perturbations of the small-amplitude solutions, we obtain asymptotic results for how their instabilities develop and grow. Numerical computation is used to confirm these asymptotic results and illustrate regimes where our asymptotic analysis does not apply.
From the perspective of probability, the stability of growing network is studied in the present paper. Using the DMS model as an example, we establish a relation between the growing network and Markov process. Based on the concept and technique of first-passage probability in Markov theory, we provide a rigorous proof for existence of the steady-state degree distribution, mathematically re-deriving the exact formula of the distribution. The approach based on Markov chain theory is universal and performs well in a large class of growing networks.
We study numerically the integrable turbulence in the framework of the focusing one-dimensional nonlinear Schrodinger equation using a new method -- the growing of turbulence. We add to the equation a weak controlled pumping term and start adiabatic evolution of turbulence from statistically homogeneous Gaussian noise. After reaching a certain level of average intensity, we switch off the pumping and realize that the grown up turbulence is statistically stationary. We measure its Fourier spectrum, the probability density function (PDF) of intensity and the autocorrelation of intensity. Additionally, we show that, being adiabatic, our method produces stationary states of the integrable turbulence for the intermediate moments of pumping as well. Presently, we consider only the turbulence of relatively small level of nonlinearity; however, even this moderate turbulence is characterized by enhanced generation of rogue waves.
In the present work, we aim at taking a step towards the spectral stability analysis of Peregrine solitons, i.e., wave structures that are used to emulate extreme wave events. Given the space-time localized nature of Peregrine solitons, this is a priori a non-trivial task. Our main tool in this effort will be the study of the spectral stability of the periodic generalization of the Peregrine soliton in the evolution variable, namely the Kuznetsov--Ma breather. Given the periodic structure of the latter, we compute the corresponding Floquet multipliers, and examine them in the limit where the period of the orbit tends to infinity. This way, we extrapolate towards the stability of the limiting structure, namely the Peregrine soliton. We find that multiple unstable modes of the background are enhanced, yet no additional unstable eigenmodes arise as the Peregrine limit is approached. We explore the instability evolution also in direct numerical simulations.
We present a stability analysis of the Lugiato-Lefever model for Kerr optical frequency combs in whispering gallery mode resonators pumped in the anomalous dispersion regime. This article is the second part of a research work whose first part was devoted to the regime of normal dispersion, and was presented in ref. cite{Part_I}. The case of anomalous dispersion is indeed the most interesting from the theoretical point of view, because of the considerable variety of dynamical behaviors that can be observed. From a technological point of view, it is also the most relevant because it corresponds to the regime where Kerr combs are predominantly generated, studied, and used for different applications. In this article, we analyze the connection between the spatial patterns and the bifurcation structure of the eigenvalues associated to the various equilibria of the system. The bifurcation map evidences a considerable richness from a dynamical standpoint. We study in detail the emergence of super- and sub-critical Turing patterns in the system. We determine the areas were bright isolated cavity solitons emerge, and we show that soliton molecules can emerge as well. Very complex temporal patterns can actually be observed in the system, where solitons (or soliton complexes) co-exist with or without mutual interactions. Our investigations also unveil the mechanism leading to the phenomenon of breathing solitons. Two routes to chaos in the system are identified, namely a route via the so called secondary combs, and another via soliton breathers. The Kerr combs corresponding to all these temporal patterns are analyzed in detail, and a discussion is led about the possibility to gain synthetic comprehension of the observed spectra out of the dynamical complexity of the system.
