dc.descriptionI argue that ``good'' mathematical models of spatio-temporal dynamics in two-dimensions require non-local operators in the nonlinear terms. Consequently, the often used Swift-Hohenberg equation requires modification as it is purely local. My aim here is to provoke more critical examination of the rationale for using the Swift-Hohenberg equations as a reliable model of the spatial pattern evolution in specific physical systems.
