Generic properties of stationary state solutions of reaction-diffusion equations (Q796713)

The authors consider stationary solutions of the equation \(u''+f(u)=0,\) with homogeneous Dirichlet or Neumann boundary conditions. They prove that the ''time map'' \(\eta \to T(\eta)\) is generically a Morse function. A simpler proof was also given by the reviewer and \textit{A. Wasserman} [ibid. 52, 432-438 (1984; Zbl 0488.58015)].
