description

We show that nonmonotonic (oscillatory) decay of the boundaries of phase domains is crucial for the stability of localized structures in systems described by Swift-Hohenberg equation. The less damped (more oscillatory) are the boundaries, the larger are the existence ranges of the localized structures. For very weakly damped spatial oscillations, higher-order localized structures are possible.
