Abstract

We present a new formulation of the spiral selection problem for the Belousov-Zhabotinsky reaction. In particular, we focus on deriving an exact integro-differential shape equation and discuss the possible behavior of solutions to this equation. We also present some new results on the asymptotic (far from core) structure of spirals in the Fife scaling regime.
