Abstract: Patterns and waves are basic and important phenomena that govern the dynamics of physical and biological systems. A common theme in investigating such systems is to identify the intrinsic factors responsible for such self-organization. The $Gamma$-convergence is a well-known technique applicable to variational formulation in studying the concentration phenomena of stable patterns. A geometric variational functional associated with the $Gamma$-limit of standing waves of FitzHugh-Nagumo system has recently been built. This article studies the $Gamma$-limit of traveling waves. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first attempt to expand the scope of applicability of $Gamma$-convergence to cover non-stationary problems.
