Abstract We analyze analytically and numerically the dynamics of phase domains in the Swift-Hohenberg equation. For negative or small positive detuning domains contract and disappear. A large positive detuning leads to dendritic growth of the domains, and the formation of labyrinth structures. Intermediate detuning results in stable circular domains - the localized structures of the Swift-Hohenberg equation. The predicted phenomena should occur in parametrically driven chemical, hydrodynamical, and nonlinear optical systems.
