The calculation of optimal structures in reaction-diffusion models is of great importance in many physicochemical systems. We propose here a simple method to monitor the number of interphases for long times by using a boundary flux condition as a control. We consider as an illustration a 1-D Allen-Cahn equation with Neumann boundary conditions. Numerical examples are given and perspectives for the application of this approach to electrochemical systems are discussed.

In this paper we suggest how the mathematical concept of hyperstructures may be a useful tool in the study of the higher, hierachical structure of languages.
The use of mathematical methods for the analysis of chemical reaction systems has a very long history, and involves many types of models: deterministic versus stochastic, continuous versus discrete, and homogeneous versus spatially distributed. Here we focus on mathematical models based on deterministic mass-action kinetics. These models are systems of coupled nonlinear differential equations on the positive orthant. We explain how mathematical properties of the solutions of mass-action systems are strongly related to key properties of the networks of chemical reactions that generate them, such as specif
We study the existence and stability of standing pulse solutions to a singularly perturbed three-component reaction diffusion system with one-activator and two-inhibitor type. We apply the MAE (matched asymptotic expansion) method to the construction of solutions and the SLEP (Singular Limit Eigenvalue Problem) method to their stability properties. This approach is not just an alternative approach to geometric singular perturbation and the associated Evans function, but gives us two advantages: one is the extendability to higher dimensional case, and the other is to allow us to obtain more precise information on the behaviors of critical eigenvalues. This implies the existence of codimension two singularity of drift and Hopf bifurcations for the standing pulse solution and it is numerically confirmed that stable standing and traveling breathers emerge around the singularity in a physically-acceptable regime.
Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is particularly well-suited to determine the structure of molecules and materials in powdered form. Structure determination usually proceeds by finding the best match between experimentally observed NMR chemical shifts and those of candidate structures. Chemical shifts for the candidate configurations have traditionally been computed by electronic-structure methods, and more recently predicted by machine learning. However, the reliability of the determination depends on the errors in the predicted shifts. Here we propose a Bayesian framework for determining the confidence in the identification of the experimental crystal structure, based on knowledge of the typical error in the electronic structure methods. We also extend the recently-developed ShiftML machine-learning model, including the evaluation of the uncertainty of its predictions. We demonstrate the approach on the determination of the structures of six organic molecular crystals. We critically assess the reliability of the structure determinations, facilitated by the introduction of a visualization of the of similarity between candidate configurations in terms of their chemical shifts and their structures. We also show that the commonly used values for the errors in calculated $^{13}$C shifts are underestimated, and that more accurate, self-consistently determined uncertainties make it possible to use $^{13}$C shifts to improve the accuracy of structure determinations.
We analyze several aspects of the phenomenon of stochastic resonance in reaction-diffusion systems, exploiting the nonequilibrium potentials framework. The generalization of this formalism (sketched in the appendix) to extended systems is first carried out in the context of a simplified scalar model, for which stationary patterns can be found analytically. We first show how system-size stochastic resonance arises naturally in this framework, and then how the phenomenon of array-enhanced stochastic resonance can be further enhanced by letting the diffusion coefficient depend on the field. A yet less trivial generalization is exemplified by a stylized version of the FitzHugh-Nagumo system, a paradigm of the activator-inhibitor class. After discussing for this system the second aspect enumerated above, we derive from it -through an adiabatic-like elimination of the inhibitor field- an effective scalar model that includes a nonlocal contribution. Studying the role played by the range of the nonlocal kernel and its effect on stochastic resonance, we find an optimal range that maximizes the systems response.
