Abstract

We use computer-assisted proof techniques to prove that a branch of non-trivial equilibrium solutions in the Kuramoto-Sivashinsky partial differential equation undergoes a Hopf bifurcation. Furthermore, we obtain an essentially constructive proof of the family of time-periodic solutions near the Hopf bifurcation. To this end, near the Hopf point we rewrite the time periodic problem for the Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equation in a desingularized formulation. We then apply a parametrized Newton-Kantorovich approach to validate a solution branch of time-periodic orbits. By construction, this solution branch includes the Hopf bifurcation point.
