Existence of Turing Instabilities in a Two-Species Fractional Reaction-Diffusion System

We introduce a two-species fractional reaction-diffusion system to model activator- inhibitor dynamics with anomalous diffusion such as occurs in spatially inhomogeneous media. Con- ditions are derived for Turing-instability induced pattern formation in these fractional activator- inhibitor systems whereby the homogeneous steady state solution is stable in the absence of diffusion but becomes unstable over a range of wavenumbers when fractional diffusion is present. The condi- tions are applied to a variant of the Gierer-Meinhardt reaction kinetics which has been generalized to incorporate anomalous diffusion in one or both of the activator and inhibitor variables. The anoma- lous diffusion extends the range of diffusion coefficients over which Turing patterns can occur. An intriguing possibility suggested by this analysis, which can arise when the diffusion of the activator is anomalous but the diffusion of the inhibitor is regular, is that Turing instabilities can exist even when the diffusion coefficient of the activator exceeds that of the inhibitor.
