Grid State – Spatial mode locking new family of Superlattice structures
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…
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
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

Why is the fluid response subharmonic (/2) ?
The most effective forcing occurs when the amplitude is maximal
=> geff oscillates at twice the response frequency

As for single frequency forcing, each tongue has: • A well-defined critical wave number • A well-defined temporal parity (odd – (p+½) , even –p)
An important difference:• new stable tongues corresponding to multiples of /2

Experimentally observed states
Questions:
1. Where do kgrid or kd come from?
Are these wavenumbers physically significant?2. Is the correct description of the 3:2 grid state fortuitous – or is this description more general ?3. Can we control the selection of a given state?
Conjectures:• kd may be related to one of the linearly stable tongues
• Perturbing the system with a third frequency, 3, may selectively stabilize a desired nonlinear coupling – choosing a desired kd via the dispersion relation (k)• The phase of the driving frequencies is important:

Selection of grid states
Even parity tongues Odd parity tongues
• 3:2 and 4:3 grid states are selected when the corresponding kd approaches the minimum of an even parity tongue• The kd of 5:3 grid states does not correspond to any tongue
h = 0.20 mm
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

Summary
• Quadratic (three-wave) nonlinear interactions + nearby stable modes Grid States ↔ sublattice spanned by linearly stable wavevectors.
Spatial mode locking is preferred by the system
• All of the possible grid states for 6/7 driving can be excited
• Selection of different grid states by the nearest nearly stable modes with exceptions…
• 3rd frequency selection of nonlinear wave interactions. Phase of the perturbation a significant influence on pattern selection.
• Universality: Grid states in nonlinear optics.
The disorder is due to competition between degenerate modes that possess different temporal and spatial symmetries

Control of Spatio-Temporal Chaos
Use of symmetries (temporal parity) of the systems for both control of this type of Spatio-Temporal Chaos and selection of states
Open-loop method:Break the degeneracy by a 3rd controlling frequency – :
a(neven, nodd) = aevencos(nevent)+aoddcos(noddt)+Acos(t)
– even/odd multiple of
The principle:The parity of the perturbation frequency – will induce the selection of the same-parity state.

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:
