Synopsis

This newly edited textbook introduces students and mathematicians to the theory of reaction-diffusion equations, the study of certain classes of nonlinear partial differential equations. It provides useful techniques for their analysis and shows how they can be applied in a variety of settings, most notably in pattern formation and nonplanar wave-like structures. This second edition includes a new chapter on geochemical systems with applications to environmental modeling problems. Fully worked out examples illustrate the salient themes, and exercises extend the materials covered.
