Abstract

We describe the onset of spatiotemporal chaos in a spatially extended nonlinear dynamical system as a result of the loss of transversal stability of an invariant manifold representing a spatially homogeneous and temporally chaotic state. The onset of spatiotemporal chaos is characterized by the switching between spatially homogeneous and nonhomogeneous states with statistical properties of on-off intermittency.
