Abstract
The dynamic properties of order-disorder systems with an asymmetric double-well single-particle potential and two dipoles per paraelectric unit cell are investigated. The Hamiltonian of the problem has a standard de Gennes form for two sublattices and is used for describing a crystal of the Seignette salt. The conditions of existence of nonlinear waves of spatial polarization in different temperature phases of the system under consideration are analyzed numerically.
