[Waves on the cell surface].
A new theoretical model is presented which describes dynamics of interaction between the plasmic membrane, cell cortex and cytoplasmic liquid. Analysis of the equation system describing this interaction has shown that besides the uniform solution (corresponding to a flat cell surface) there exists the stable autowave solution (corresponding to standing or running harmonic waves along the cell surface). The latter solution can be related to the experimentally observed waves moving along the cell surface.
