The paper “Phase dynamics of periodic waves leading to the KP equation in 3+1 dimensions“, co-authored by Daniel Ratliff and Tom Bridges, has been accepted for publication in the Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. In the paper it shown that the KP equation is the relevant modulation equation for bifurcation from periodic travelling waves when […]
