Theory and Applications of Reaction-diffusion Equations: Patterns and Waves (Oxford Applied Mathematics & Computing Science S.)

This text presents an introduction to the theory of reaction-diffusion equations. It provides a compendium of useful techniques for the analysis of such equations and shows how they find application in a variety of settings, notably in pattern formation and non-planar wave-like structures. The second edition includes a new chapter on geochemical systems with applications to environmental modelling problems.
