We investigate Turing pattern formation in a stochastic and spatially discretized version of a reaction diffusion advection (RDA) equation, which was previously introduced to model synaptogenesis in \textit{C. elegans}. The model describes…

Turing's theory of pattern formation has been used to describe the formation of self-organised periodic patterns in many biological, chemical and physical systems. However, the use of such models is hindered by our inability to predict, in…

Many approaches to modelling reaction-diffusion systems with anomalous transport rely on deterministic equations and ignore fluctuations arising due to finite particle numbers. Starting from an individual-based model we use a…

We study the time evolution of perturbations in spatially extended chaotic systems in the presence of quenched disorder. We find that initially random perturbations tend to exponentially localize in space around static pinning centers that…

Some quantities in the reaction-diffusion models from cellular biology or ecology depend on the spatial average of density functions instead of local density functions. We show that such nonlocal spatial average can induce instability of…

In certain biological contexts, such as the plumage patterns of birds and stripes on certain species of fishes, pattern formation takes place behind a so-called "wave of competency". Currently, the effects of a wave of competency on the…

Turing instability in activator-inhibitor systems provides a paradigm of nonequilibrium pattern formation; it has been extensively investigated for biological and chemical processes. Turing pattern formation should furthermore be possible…

The peculiar phase-ordering properties of a lattice of coupled chaotic maps studied recently (A. Lema\^\i tre & H. Chat\'e, {\em Phys. Rev. Lett.} {\bf 82}, 1140 (1999)) are revisited with the help of detailed investigations of interface…
