Instability of equilibria in some delay reaction-diffusion systems (Q1576957)

The system considered is a reaction-diffusion system of the form \[ {\partial u_i\over\partial t}= F_i(x,u,G_i* u)+ d_i\Delta u_i\quad\text{in }\Omega,\quad t> 0,\quad i= 1,\dots,n \] with Robin boundary conditions \({\partial u_i\over\partial n}+ \gamma_i(x) u_i= 0\) on \(\partial\Omega\). The delay is modeled by \[ (G_i* u)_j(x,t)= \int^t_{-\infty} k_{ij}(t- s)u_j(x, s) ds. \] The author proves instability results with applications, in particular to a Lotka-Volterra system.
