چکیده

The effect of spatially correlated noise on Turing structures is analyzed both experimentally and numerically. Using the photosensitive character of the chlorine dioxide-iodine-malonic acid reaction-diffusion system, spatial randomness is introduced in the system. In the presence of noise, Turing patterns appear and are stable at levels of average illumination that would be more than sufficient to suppress pattern formation in the case of homogeneous illumination.

Pattern formation in spatially heterogeneous Turing reaction–diffusion models

The Turing reaction–diffusion model [Phil. Trans. R. Soc. 237 (1952) 37–72] for self-organised spatial pattern formation has been the subject of a great deal of study for the case of spatially homogeneous parameters. The case of parameters which vary spatially has received less attention. Here, we show that a simple step function heterogeneity in a kinetic parameter can lead to spatial pattern ...

Giant Amplification of Noise in Fluctuation-Induced Pattern Formation.

The amplitude of fluctuation-induced patterns might be expected to be proportional to the strength of the driving noise, suggesting that such patterns would be difficult to observe in nature. Here, we show that a large class of spatially extended dynamical systems driven by intrinsic noise can exhibit giant amplification, yielding patterns whose amplitude is comparable to that of deterministic ...

Pattern Formation Induced by Time-Dependent Advection

We study pattern-forming instabilities in reaction-advection-diffusion systems. We develop an approach based on Lyapunov-Bloch exponents to figure out the impact of a spatially periodic mixing flow on the stability of a spatially homogeneous state. We deal with the flows periodic in space that may have arbitrary time dependence. We propose a discrete in time model, where reaction, advection, an...

Beyond activator-inhibitor networks: the generalised Turing mechanism

The Turing patterning mechanism is believed to underly the formation of repetitive structures in development, such as zebrafish stripes and mammalian digits, but it has proved difficult to isolate the specific biochemical species responsible for pattern formation. Meanwhile, synthetic biologists have designed Turing systems for implementation in cell colonies, but none have yet led to visible p...

Robust ecological pattern formation induced by demographic noise.

We demonstrate that demographic noise can induce persistent spatial pattern formation and temporal oscillations in the Levin-Segel predator-prey model for plankton-herbivore population dynamics. Although the model exhibits a Turing instability in mean-field theory, demographic noise greatly enlarges the region of parameter space where pattern formation occurs. To distinguish between patterns ge...
