Scientific paper

The well known concept, to reduce the spatio-temporal dynamics beyond instabilities of trivial states to amplitude modulated patterns, is reviewed from the point of view of a formal perturbation expansion for general dissipative partial differential equations. For codimension one instabilities closed analytical formulas for all coefficients of the resulting amplitude equation are given, with no further restriction on the basic equations of motion. Both the autonomous and the explicitly time-dependent case are discussed. For the latter, the problem of strong resonances is addressed separately. The formal character of the expansion allows for an analysis of higher-codimension instabilities like the Turing-Hopf instability and for the discussion of principal limits of the amplitude approach in the present form.
