Dynamical spike solutions in a nonlocal model of pattern formation

Analysis of PDEs 2017-06-20 v2

Abstract

Coupling a reaction-diffusion equation with ordinary differential equations (ODE) may lead to diffusion-driven instability (DDI) which, in contrast to the classical reaction-diffusion models, causes destabilization of both, constant solutions and Turing patterns. Using a shadow-type limit of a reaction-diffusion-ODE model, we show that in such cases the instability driven by nonlocal terms (a counterpart of DDI) may lead to formation of unbounded spike patterns.
