Abstract
We present formulas for the amplitude of the deflection of an unstable interface during the solidification of a pure substance. We then forecast the conditions for the appearance of either a supercritical or a subcritical pitchfork in terms of the input variables, emphasizing the importance of the depths of the two phases.
