Abstract
We consider modulating pulse solutions for a nonlinear wave equation on the infinite line. Such a solution consists of a permanent pulse-like envelope steadily advancing in the laboratory frame and modulating an underlying wave-train. The problem is formulated as an infinite-dimensional dynamical system with one stable, one unstable and infinitely many neutral directions. Using a partial normal form and invariant-manifold theory we establish the existence of modulating pulse solutions which decay to small-amplitude disturbances at large distances.
