In particular, we characterize evolution morphologies using spiral defects. This paper (referred to as $\\rm I$) is the first in a two-stage exposition. Here, we present analytical results for the correlation function arising from a single-spiral morphology. We also critically examine the utility of the Gaussian auxiliary field (GAF) ansatz in characterizing a multi-spiral morphology. In the next paper of this exposition (referred to as $\\rm II$), we will present detailed numerical results.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2001-03-17T08:35:20.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "complex ginzburg-landau equation", "nonequilibrium dynamics", "analytical results", "gaussian auxiliary field", "characterize evolution morphologies" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
