Abstract

In this paper, spatial patterns of a diffusive Tumor cell and immune cell model with sigmoid ratio-dependent functional response are investigated. The asymptotic stability behavior of the corresponding nonspatial model around the unique positive interior equilibrium point in homogeneous steady state is obtained. We have obtained the optimal condition under which the system loses stability and a Turing pattern occurs. Numerical simulations have been carried out in order to show the significant role of reaction-diffusion coefficients and other important parameters of the system. Various contour figures of spatial patterns through Turing instability are portrayed and analyzed in order to substantiate the applicability of the present model. The paper ends with an extended discussion of biological implications of the immune system.
