Subcritical Turing bifurcations of reaction-diffusion systems in large domains lead to spontaneous onset of well-developed localised patterns via the homoclinic snaking mechanism. This phenomenon is shown to occur naturally when balancing…
Originating from the pioneering study of Alan Turing, the bifurcation analysis predicting spatial pattern formation from a spatially uniform state for diffusing morphogens or chemical species that interact through nonlinear reactions is a…
Contact defects are time-periodic patterns in one space dimension that resemble spatially homogeneous oscillations with an embedded defect in their core region. For theoretical and numerical purposes, it is important to understand whether…
An investigation is undertaken of coupled reaction-diffusion systems in one spatial dimension that are able to support, in different regions of their parameter space, either an isolated spike solution, or stable localized patterns with an…
On a two-dimensional circular domain, we analyze the formation of spatio-temporal patterns for a class of coupled bulk-surface reaction-diffusion models for which a passive diffusion process occurring in the interior bulk domain is linearly…
Homoclinic snaking is a widespread phenomenon observed in many pattern-forming systems. Demonstrating its occurrence in non-perturbative regimes has proven difficult, although a forcing theory has been developed based on the identification…
We study the existence of patterns (nontrivial, stationary solutions) for one-dimensional Swift-Hohenberg Equation in a directional quenching scenario, that is, on $x\leq 0$ the energy potential associated to the equation is bistable,…
We study the relationship between homoclinic orbits associated to repellors, usually called snap-back repellors, and expanding sets of smooth endomorphisms. Critical homoclinic orbits constitutes an interesting bifurcation that is locally…
We investigate a nonlocal single-species reaction-diffusion-advection model that integrates the spatial memory of previously visited locations and nonlocal detection in space, resulting in a coupled PDE-ODE system reflective of several…
Spatially localised stationary patterns of arbitrary wide spatial extent emerge from subcritical Turing bifurcations in one-dimensional reaction-diffusion systems. They lie on characteristic bifurcation curves that oscillate around a…
An activator-inhibitor-substrate model of side-branching used in the context of pulmonary vascular and lung development is considered on the supposition that spatially localized concentrations of the activator trigger local side-branching.…
We study homoclinic snaking of one-dimensional, localised states on two-dimensional, bistable lattices via the method of exponential asymptotics. Within a narrow region of parameter space, fronts connecting the two stable states are pinned…
Collective organisation of patterns into ring-like configurations has been well-studied when patterns are subject to either weak or semi-strong interactions. However, little is known numerically or analytically about their formation when…
Patterns in reaction-diffusion systems often contain two spatial scales; a long scale determined by a typical wavelength or domain size, and a short scale pertaining to front structures separating different domains. Such patterns naturally…
The ecological invasion problem in which a weaker exotic species invades an ecosystem inhabited by two strongly competing native species is modelled by a three-species competition-diffusion system. It is known that for a certain range of…
We study numerically the cubic-quintic-septic Swift-Hohenberg (SH357) equation on bounded one-dimensional domains. Under appropriate conditions stripes with wave number $k\approx 1$ bifurcate supercritically from the zero state and form…
Homoclinic snaking refers to the sinusoidal snaking continuation curve of homoclinic orbits near a heteroclinic cycle connecting an equilibrium E and a periodic orbit P. Along this curve the homoclinic orbit performs more and more windings…
In a smooth dynamical system, a homoclinic connection is a closed orbit returning to a saddle equilibrium. Under perturbation, homoclinics are associated with bifurcations of periodic orbits, and with chaos in higher dimensions. Homoclinic…
Traveling wavetrains in generalized two-species predator-prey models and two-component reaction-diffusion equations are considered. The stability of the fixed points of the traveling wave ODEs (in the usual "spatial" variable) is…
Coupling diffusion process of signaling molecules with nonlinear interactions of intracellular processes and cellular growth/transformation leads to a system of reaction-diffusion equations coupled with ordinary differential equations…
