Spontaneous pattern formation in homogeneous systems is ubiquitous in nature. Although Turing demonstrated that spatial patterns can emerge in reaction-diffusion (RD) systems when the homogeneous state becomes linearly unstable, it remains…

Reaction diffusion systems with Turing instability and mass conservation are studied. In such systems, abrupt decays of stripes follow quasi-stationary states in sequence. At steady state, the distance between stripes is much longer than…

We study the Swift-Hohenberg equation - a paradigm model for pattern formation - with "large" spatially periodic coefficients and find a Turing bifurcation that generates patterns whose leading order form is a Bloch wave modulated by…

Turing patterns on unbounded domains have been widely studied in systems of reaction-diffusion equations. However, up to now, they have not been studied for systems of conservation laws. Here, we (i) derive conditions for Turing instability…
