  2. Talk outline: • Motivation – why study parametrically excited waves • (especially with a lot of excitation frequencies) • Linear stability and the 2 frequency phase diagram • What exactly is a Grid State? • Control of the system using a 3rd frequency • Grid states in nonlinear optics…

  3. Well -studied nonlinear systems: Patterns: Single excited spatial mode + secondary instabilities e.g. R-B, Couette-Taylor, Faraday Instability... Chaos: Order - Disorder in the temporal domain Turbulence: A large number of concurrently excited modes • Motivation: • What structures are selected when a few distinctly different nonlinear modes • are allowed to interact? • Selection criteria / interaction mechanisms? • Routes to complexity in both space and time

  16. Questions: • Where do kgridorkdcome from? • Are these wavenumbers physically significant? • Is the correct description of the 3:2 grid state fortuitous – • or is this description more general ? • Can we control the selection of a given state? • Conjectures: • kdmay be related to one of the linearly stable tongues • Perturbing the system with a thirdfrequency, w3, may selectively stabilize • a desired nonlinear coupling – choosing a desired kdvia the dispersion • relationw(k) • The phase of the driving frequencies is important: • symmetry generalized phase F C.

  18. 3:2 Grid State 5:3 Grid State At least one additional type of grid state exists! Can these states be controlled by means of a 3rd frequency?

  19. Unperturbed phase diagram Test case: 7/6/2 forcing f3 a =aecos(mevenwt +f1)+aocos(moddwt +f2) + a3cos(m3wt +f3) w =14Hz h = 0.3cm. n = 18 cSt. Both the a3and the phase have a profound effect on pattern selection!

  20. 7/6/2 forcing f1 = f2 = 0 f3 The choice of phase entirely changes the phase diagram but… ONLY where quadratic interactions dominate!

To quantify the degree of symmetry of a given k Angular Correlation Function, Ck(q) 3:2 Grid State (6/7/2 driving) 5:3 Grid State (6/7/2 driving) Predicted values of F work well for both types of Grid States! (the analysis actually uses only temporal symmetries…)

  23. Do other grid states exist? Upon increase in dissipation (h=3mm  h=2mm) 3:2 Grid states are replaced by 4:3 grid states Predicted: kd= 2kc/13 ~ 0.56 kc;q = 27.8 Observed: kd= 0.55 ± 0.02 kc;q = 28

  24. Even parity tongues Odd parity tongues Selection of grid states h = 0.20 mm h = 0.22 mm h = 0.23 mm h = 0.24 mm h = 0.26 mm h = 0.27 mm h = 0.29 mm h = 0.28 mm h = 0.25 mm h = 0.21 mm h = 0.3 mm Critical acceleration k5:3 k3:2 k4:3 kc • 3:2 and 4:3 grid states are selected when the correspondingkd • approaches the minimum of an even parity tongue • Thekd of 5:3 grid states does not correspond to any tongue

  25. How general are grid states? • We might expect to see them when a nonlinear system has: • The possibility of exciting many different modes (i.e. spatially extended system) • The dominant (allowed) non-linear interactions are quadratic

  30. Control of Spatio-Temporal Chaos Open-loop method: Break the degeneracy by a 3rdcontrolling frequency – W : a(nevenw0, noddw0, W) =aevencos(nevenwt)+aoddcos(noddwt)+AW cos(W t) W – even/odd multiple of w The principle: The parity of the perturbation frequency – W will induce the selection of the same-parity state. Use of symmetries (temporal parity) of the systems for both control of this type of Spatio-Temporal Chaos and selection of states • T. Epstein and J. F., PRL92, 244502 (2004)

  31. Locked 2MS state aW -lock Controlling with odd 3rd frequency of W =w0 • Locking occurs at small aW amplitudes (aW < 0.5 aW-crit.). • The Chaotic state rapidly becomes “controlled”

  32. Rapid Switching Switching the parity of the control frequency will trigger a rapid transition between states of different temporal symmetries Odd → Even (W = w 0 → W = 2w 0) Even → Odd (W = 2w 0 → W = w 0) This switching is achieved within time in order of a single period.

  33. Conclusions: • Characterization of Spatio-Temporal Chaos. • Competition between degenerate modes that possess different temporal and spatial symmetries • Open loop control of STC. • Small periodic perturbations having well-defined temporal symmetries A general method. relevant for any parametrically forced system: e.g. nonlinear optics, forced reaction diffusion
