Turing Pattern Formation without Diffusion
The reaction-diffusion mechanism, presented by AM Turing more than 60 years ago, is currently the most popular theoretical model explaining the biological pattern formation including the skin pattern. This theory suggested an unexpected possibility that the skin pattern is a kind of stationary wave (Turing pattern or reaction-diffusion pattern) made by the combination of reaction and diffusion....
متن کاملPattern formation in generalized Turing systems
Turing's model of pattern formation has been extensively studied analytically and numerically, and there is recent experimental evidence that it may apply in certain chemical systems. The model is based on the assumption that all reacting species obey the same type of boundary condition pointwise on the boundary. We call these scalar boundary conditions. Here we study mixed or nonscalar boundar...
متن کاملPattern Formation in Quantum Turing Machines
We investigate the iteration of a sequence of local and pair unitary transformations, which can be interpreted to result from a Turing-head (pseudo-spin S) rotating along a closed Turing-tape (M additional pseudo-spins). The dynamical evolution of the Bloch-vector of S, which can be decomposed into 2M primitive pure state Turing-head trajectories, gives rise to fascinating geometrical patterns ...
متن کاملPattern Formation (ii): the Turing Instability
1. Growing modes in a reaction-diffusion system In this section we summarize the classical linear Turing instability criterion for a reaction-diffusion system. Consider a reaction-diffusion system of 2-species as ∂U ∂t = ∇ · (D1 (U,V )∇U) + f (U,V ) , (1.1) ∂V ∂t = ∇ · (D2 (U,V )∇V ) + g (U,V ) , where U (x,t) ,V (x,t) are concentration for species, D1, D2 diffusion coefficients, f, g reaction ...
متن کاملStability of n-dimensional patterns in a generalized Turing system: implications for biological pattern formation
The stability of Turing patterns in an n-dimensional cube (0, π) is studied, where n 2. It is shown by using a generalization of a classical result of Ermentrout concerning spots and stripes in two dimensions that under appropriate assumptions only sheet-like or nodule-like structures can be stable in an n-dimensional cube. Other patterns can also be stable in regions comprising products of low...
