Ducks in space: from nonlinear absolute instability to noise-sustained structures in a pattern-forming system

A subcritical pattern-forming system with nonlinear advection in a bounded domain is recast as a slow-fast system in space and studied using a combination of geometric singular perturbation theory and numerical continuation. Two types of solutions describing the possible location of stationary front...
