Steady states of the reaction-diffusion equations. Part II: Uniqueness of solutions and some special cases
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 17 February 2009
Abstract
In an earlier paper (Part I) the existence and some related properties of the solution to a coupled pair of nonlinear elliptic partial differential equations was considered. These equations arise when material is undergoing an exothermic chemical reaction which is sustained by the diffusion of a reactant. In this paper we consider the range of parameters for which the uniqueness of solution is assured and we also investigate the converse question of multiple solutions. The special case of the one dimensional shape of the infinite slab is investigated in full as this case admits to solution by integration.
