Instabilities and pattern formation is the rule in nonequilibrium systems. Selection of a persistent lengthscale, or coarsening (increase of the lengthscale with time) are the two major alternatives. When and under which conditions one…
We study nano-pattern formation in a stochastic model for adsorption-desorption processes with interacting adsorbate and hyperbolic transport caused by memory effects. It is shown that at early stages the system manifests pattern selection…
Pattern formation in reaction-diffusion systems is of great importance in surface micro-patterning [Grzybowski et al. Soft Matter. 1, 114 (2005)], self-organization of cellular micro-organisms [Schulz et al. Annu. Rev. Microbiol. 55, 105…
We propose a new non-equilibrium model for spatial pattern formation on the basis of local information transfer. Unlike standard models of pattern formation it is not based on the Turing instability. Information is transmitted through the…
Motivated by numerical simulations showing the emergence of either periodic or irregular patterns, we explore a mechanism of pattern formation arising in the processes described by a system of a single reaction-diffusion equation coupled…
Chemical, physical and ecological systems passing through a saddle-node bifurcation will, momentarily, find themselves balanced at a semi-stable steady state. If perturbed by noise, such systems will escape from the zero-steady state, with…
In this article we formulate new models for coupled systems of bulk-surface reaction-diffusion equations on stationary volumes. The bulk reaction-diffusion equations are coupled to the surface reaction-diffusion equations through linear…
The biopolymers actin and microtubules are often in an ongoing assembling/disassembling state far from thermal equilibrium. Above a critical density this leads to spatially periodic patterns, as shown by a scaling argument and in terms of a…

A quasi-potential approximation to the Navier-Stokes equation for low viscosity fluids is developed to study pattern formation in parametric surface waves driven by a force that has two frequency components. A bicritical line separating…

Dynamical processes on networks are currently being considered in different domains of cross-disciplinary interest. Reaction-diffusion systems hosted on directed graphs are in particular relevant for their widespread applications, from…
This paper investigates the conditions for the stability and emergence of patterns in a new three-component reaction-diffusion system. The system describes the coexistence and interaction of water reservoirs, vegetation, and bushfire…
Present work is a theoretical study on the stability of the thermotropic biaxial nematic liquid crystal phase in model systems. Its main aim is to present the phase diagrams of spatially uniform liquid mesophases and to identify the…
We study the chemostat model for one species competing for one nutrient using a Lyapunov-type analysis. We design the dilution rate function so that all solutions of the chemostat converge to a prescribed periodic solution. In terms of…
It has been suggested recently that growth and division of a protocell could be modeled by a chemically active droplet with simple chemical reactions driven by an external fuel supply. This model is called the continuum model. Indeed it's…
Fractional difference equations provide a flexible mathematical framework for modeling complex systems with memory, hereditary, and non-local effects. In this work, we study the stability of higher-order two-term fractional linear…
In this article, we carry out a study of long-term behavior of reaction-diffusion systems augmented with self- and cross-diffusion, using an augmented Gray-Scott system as a general example. The methodology remains generic, and is therefore…

Prior modal stability analysis (Kojima et al., Phys. Fluids, vol. 27, 1984) predicted that a rising or sedimenting droplet in a viscous fluid is stable in the presence of surface tension no matter how small, in contrast to experimental and…
