For two molecules to react they first have to meet. Yet, reaction times are rarely on par with the first-passage times that govern such molecular encounters. A prime reason for this discrepancy is stochastic transitions between reactive and…

We study the kinetics of bimolecular, catalytically-activated reactions (CARs) in d-dimensions. The elementary reaction act between reactants takes place only when these meet in the vicinity of a catalytic site; such sites are assumed to be…
We study a two-component reaction-diffusion system in which one of the reaction terms becomes singularly large. Assuming that the initial data are nonnegative and mutually segregated, we prove that the solution converges to that of the heat…
