Secant-hyperbolic instability in a reaction-diffusion system.
We have shown that the nonlinearity of the chemical reaction may induce instability on a homogenous stable steady state of a one-component reaction-diffusion system characterized by a cubic polynomial source term. This results in a growth of an asymptotically approaching inhomogeneous spatial profile of secant-hyperbolic form reminiscent of a solitary wave.
