Abstract

Detuned resonance, that is, resonance with some nonzero frequency mismatch, is a topic of widespread multidisciplinary interest describing many physical, mechanical, biological, and other evolutionary dispersive PDE systems. In this paper, we attempt to introduce some systematic terminology to the field, and we also point out some counter-intuitive features: for instance, that a resonant mismatch, if nonzero, cannot be arbitrarily small (in some well-defined sense); and that zero-frequency modes, which may be omitted by studying only exact resonances, should be considered. We illustrate these points with specific examples of nonlinear wave systems. Our main goal is to lay down the common language and foundations for a subsequent study of detuned resonances in various application areas.
