We analyze the possibility of pattern formation in an optical cavity in which one of its mirrors can be deformed by radiation pressure. Our model treats the deformable mirror as tense membrane that can oscillate, not only back and forth around its axial equilibrium position (center of mass motion), but also in its transverse degrees of freedom, vibrating like a drum in combinations of modes. We demonstrate the existence of periodic patterns and localized structures (cavity solitons) in this model, which should be realizable with current technology.
