title: Reaction-diffusion systems with stochastic time delay in kinetics.
abstract: Time delay is an important dynamical issue in a multistep chemical reaction. We present a theoretical scheme for delayed reaction-diffusion systems where the time delay in kinetics is stochastic in nature. It has been shown that a small but finite strength of delay may result in generic change in the nature of spatiotemporal instability in the dynamics. Our theoretical analysis has been corroborated by numerical simulations on two reaction-diffusion systems.
