A chapter in Bifurcation Analysis, 1985, pp 201-232 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract Nature often seems to like (approximately) symmetric solutions to problems. Mathematically, or more generally, scientifically, it thus becomes our task to understand why, e. g. bý showing that more or less regular patterns are usually the most stable, or economical, or optimising with respect to a suitable criterion.
