Abstract

The Hopf bifurcations for the classical Gray–Scott system and the Schnakenberg system in an one-dimensional interval are considered. For each system, the existence of time-periodic solutions near the Hopf bifurcation parameter for a boundary spike is rigorously proved by the classical Crandall–Rabinowitz theory. The criteria for the stability of limit cycles are determined and it is shown that the Hopf bifurcation is supercritical for the Schnakenberg system, and hence the bifurcating periodic solutions are linearly stable. For the Gray–Scott system, there is a critical feeding rate, when the feeding rate of the system is greater than this critical feeding rate, the Hopf bifurcation is supercritical which implies the bifurcating periodic solutions are linearly stable, while when the feeding rate is smaller than this critical feeding rate, the Hopf bifurcation is subcritical, implying the bifurcating periodic solutions are linearly unstable.
