Abstract
A modified version of the Gierer-Meinhardt reaction-diffusion system (without source terms) is used in a model for hair follicle spacing in mice, proposed by Sick, Reinker, Timmer and Schlake [22]. Global existence of solutions of this model system is shown by computing uniform bounds. Analysis of conditions for emergence of spatially heterogeneous solutions is performed using a limiting form of the original reaction-diffusion system. The conditions for pattern formation given in [22] are improved by including those subregions in the parameter space where far-from-equilibrium heterogeneous solutions occur.
