Abstract
A solution of the Allen-Cahn equation in the plane is called a saddle solution if its nodal set coincides with the coordinate axes. Such solutions are known to exist for a large class of nonlinearities. In this paper we consider the linear operator obtained by linearizing the Allen-Cahn equation around the saddle solution. Our result states that there are no nontrivial, decaying elements in the kernel of this operator. In other words, the saddle solution of the Allen-Cahn equation is nondegenerate.
