Steady states of FitzHugh-Nagumo system with non-diffusive activator and diffusive inhibitor (Q2272814)

The target of the authors is a diffusion equation coupled to an ordinary differential equation with FitzHugh-Nagumo type nonlinearity. They construct continuous spatially heterogeneous steady states near, and correspondiongly far, from constant steady states. They show that these states are all unstable. They construct various types of steady states with jump discontinuities and prove that they are stable in a weak sense.
