title: Breaking of space-time symmetries in modulated traveling waves.
abstract: In this paper, we investigate the structure of traveling waves whose amplitude is spatially and/or temporally modulated. In particular, in the case of short wavelength modulations, we completely describe the breaking of symmetry induced by such modulations and their dynamical consequences.
