Abstract
Spiral waves in excitable media may drift due to interaction with medium inhomogeneities. We describe this drift asymptotically, within the kinematic (eikonal) approximation.Keywords: Asymptotics; Autowave; Drift; Eikonal; Excitable medium; Inhomogeneity; Kinematic approximation; Reaction-diffusion system; Spiral wave
