Symmetric, asymmetric, and antiphase Turing patterns in a model system with two identical coupled layers

L Yang, IR Epstein - Physical Review E, 2004 - APS
We study Turing pattern formation in a model reaction-diffusion system with two coupled
identical layers. The coupling creates a pitchfork bifurcation, which unfolds the symmetric …
