From the stripes of a zebra to the ripples on a sandy beach or desert dune, regular patterns arise in nature everywhere. This book provides an introduction to the range of mathematical theory and methods used to analyse and explain patterns. Bringing together several different approaches, from group theoretic methods to envelope equations and theory of patterns in large-aspect-ratio systems, the book also provides insight into what lies behind the selection of one pattern over another.--[book cover].
What are natural patterns? -- A bit of bifurcation theory -- A bit of group theory -- Bifurcations with symmetry -- Simple lattice patterns -- Superlattices, hidden symmetries and other complications -- Spatial modulation and envelope equations -- Instabilities of stripes and travelling plane waves -- More instabilities of patterns -- Spirals, defects and spiral defect chaos -- Large-aspect-ratio systems and the Cross-Newell equation.
