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…
It has been established that there is an inherent limit to the accuracy of the reaction-diffusion master equation. Specifically, there exists a fundamental lower bound on the mesh size, below which the accuracy deteriorates as the mesh is…
The global existence of bounded solutions to reaction-diffusion systems with fractional diffusion in the whole space $\mathbb R^N$ is investigated. The systems are assumed to preserve the non-negativity of initial data and to dissipate…
Patterns in reaction-diffusion systems near primary bifurcations can be studied locally and classified by means of amplitude equations. This is not possible for excitable reaction-diffusion systems. In this Letter we propose a global…
The classical theory of chemical reactions can be understood in terms of diffusive barrier crossing, where the rate of a reaction is determined by the inverse of the mean first passage time (FPT) to cross a free energy barrier. Whenever a…
Given any finite and closed chemical reaction system, it is possible to efficiently determine whether or not it contains a `self-sustaining and collectively autocatalytic' subset of reactions, and to find such subsets when they exist.…
We study reaction-diffusion processes with multi-species of particles and hard-core interaction. We add boundary driving to the system by means of external reservoirs which inject and remove particles, thus creating stationary currents. We…

In this short survey we compare aspects of two different approaches for scaling limits of interacting particle systems, the hydrodynamic limit and the high density limit. We present some examples, comments and open problems on each approach…
We study the boundedness and convergence to equilibrium of weak solutions to reaction-diffusion systems with nonlinear diffusion. The nonlinear diffusion is of porous medium type and the nonlinear reaction terms are assumed to grow…
We consider a nonlinear reaction--diffusion equation in a domain consisting of two bulk regions connected via small channels periodically distributed within a thin layer. The height and the thickness of the channels are of order $\epsilon$,…
The global existence of bounded weak solutions to a diffusion system modeling biofilm growth is proven. The equations consist of a reaction-diffusion equation for the substrate concentration and a fourth-order Cahn-Hilliard-type equation…
A generalisation of reaction diffusion systems and their travelling solutions to cases when the productive part of the reaction happens only on a surface in space or on a line on plane but the degradation and the diffusion happen in bulk…
In this paper we prove a weak comparison principle for a reaction-diffusion system without uniqueness of solutions. We apply the abstract results to the Lotka-Volterra system with diffusion, a generalized logistic equation and to a model of…
In this paper we apply the differential inequality technique of Payne {\it et. al} \cite{Payne&SchaeferRobin08} to show that a reaction-diffusion system admits blow-up solutions, and to determine an upper bound for the blow-up time. For a…
We consider general multi-species models of reaction diffusion processes and obtain a set of constraints on the rates which give rise to closed systems of equations for correlation functions. Our results are valid in any dimension and on…
A system of a parabolic partial differential equation coupled with ordinary differential inclusions that arises from a closed-loop control problem for a thermodynamic process governed by the Allen-Cahn diffusion reaction model is studied. A…
We consider a special type of fast reaction-diffusion systems in which the coefficients of the reaction terms of the two substances are much larger than those of the diffusion terms while the diffusive motion to the substrate is negligible.…
Reaction systems are discrete dynamical systems inspired by bio-chemical processes, whose dynamical behaviour is expressed by set-theoretic operations on finite sets. Reaction systems thus provide a description of bio-chemical phenomena…
