On the structure of the set of stationary solutions for a system of reaction-diffusion equations with competitive interaction (Q2583116)

Let \({\mathbf{u}}=(u,v)\in \mathbb{R}^2,\mathbb{R}_+=(0,\infty),\varepsilon>0, d_u>0,d_v>0,D=\text{diag}(d_u,d_v), {\mathbf{f}}:\mathbb{R}^2\to\mathbb{R}^2\) is a smooth function of \({\mathbf{u}}\) with the form \[ {\mathbf{f}}({\mathbf{u}})=(f,g)({\mathbf{u}}),\quad f({\mathbf{u}})=f^0({\mathbf{u}})u,\quad g({\mathbf{u}})=g^0({\mathbf{u}})v, \quad {\mathbf{f}}^0({\mathbf{u}})=(f^0,g^0)({\mathbf{u}}). \] Consider the following system of reaction-diffusion equations with competitive interaction \[ \begin{aligned} {\mathbf{u}}_t= \varepsilon^2D{\mathbf{u}}_{xx}+{\mathbf{f}}({\mathbf{u}}), &\quad x\in (0,1),\;t\in \mathbb{R}_+,\\ {\mathbf{u}}_x={\mathbf{0}}, &\quad x=0,1,\;\;\;t\in \mathbb{R}_+.\end{aligned}\tag{1} \] Under some suitable conditions on \(f^0({\mathbf{u}})\) and \( g^0({\mathbf{u}})\) for the boundedness of solutions and comparison principle, the author discusses the structure of the set for stationary solutions of (1).
