In this work we study global well-posedness and large time behaviour for a typical reaction--diffusion system, which include degenerate diffusion, and whose non-linearities arise from chemical reactions. We show that there is an {\it…

We consider a general class of autocatalytic reactions, that has been shown to display stochastically switching behaviour (Discreteness Induced Transitions) in some parameter regimes. This behaviour was shown to occur when either the…

We study theoretically and numerically the steady state diffusion controlled reaction $A+B\rightarrow\emptyset$, where currents $J$ of $A$ and $B$ particles are applied at opposite boundaries. For a reaction rate $\lambda$, and equal…

We present a general expression for the association rate for partially diffusion-controlled reactions between spherical molecules with an asymmetric reactive patch on each surface. Reaction can occur only if the two patches are in contact…

We develop an encounter-based approach for describing restricted diffusion with a gradient drift towards a partially reactive boundary. For this purpose, we introduce an extension of the Dirichlet-to-Neumann operator and use its eigenbasis…

We consider a reaction-diffusion system where some components react and diffuse on the boundary of a region, while other components diffuse in the interior and react with those on the boundary through mass transport. We establish criteria…
