Abstract
It is observed by experiments that band patterns of alternating acid and alkaline zones are formed on the surface of Characean cells under illumination. In order to understand theoretically such pattern formation, we employ a reaction-diffusion equation model with activator-inhibitor interaction. We study the existence problem of band patterns and hysteresis phenomena such as patterns appearing and disappearing with changing light intensity by using singular perturbation methods.
