The following two-variables weakly coupled reaction-diffusion system: \[ \begin{cases} u_t= d_1\Delta u+ f(u,v,x,y)\\ v_t= d_2\Delta v+ g(u,v,x,y)\end{cases}\quad (t;x,y)\in (0,\infty)\times \Omega_\varepsilon\tag{1} \] is considered on the symmetric thin tubular domains \(\Omega_\varepsilon\subset \mathbb{R}^{N+ 1}\) under homogeneous Neumann and/or mixed boundary conditions. Using the Yanagida method the author considers the reduced equations of (1) to the following form: \[ \begin{cases} u_t= {1\over a(x)} (a(x) u_x)_x+ f(u,v,x,0)\\ v_t= {1\over a(x)} (a(x) v_x)_x+ g(u, v,x, 0)\end{cases}\quad (t,x)\in (0,\infty)\times (0,L)\tag{2} \] under the corresponding homogeneous Neumann and/or Dirichlet boundary conditions. The object of investigation is to verify the validity that the dynamics of the system (1) should be determined by those of the system (2). The relationship of the steady states of (1) with those of (2) is studied. There is shown that considerable information about the predictions given by (1) can be obtained by studying the steady states of (2). For the entire collection see [Zbl 0939.00028].
