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 local…

Reaction diffusion systems with Turing instability and mass conservation are studied. In such systems, abrupt decays of stripes follow quasi-stationary states in sequence. At steady state, the distance between stripes is much longer than…

Consider a one-dimensional diffusion process which has state-dependent drift and deviation and is reflected at the origin, which is called a one-side reflected diffusion or simply reflected diffusion. We are particularly interested in the…

Q-conditional symmetries (nonclassical symmetries) for a general class of two-component reaction-diffusion systems with constant diffusivities are studied. Using the recently introduced notion of Q-conditional symmetries of the first type…

Pattern formation mechanisms of a reaction-diffusion-advection system, with one diffusivity, differential advection, and (Robin) boundary conditions of Danckwerts type, are being studied. Pattern selection requires mapping the domains of…
