| Research Abstract |
In this project, we have studied the structure of solutions for the following two types of equations : (a) reaction diffusion systems with nonlinear diffusion in mathematical biology and (b) semilinear diffusion equations describing phase transition phenomena
The first problem in mathematical biology is given by a system of differential equations with quasilinear diffusion of the form
u_t=Δ[φ(u,v)u]+au(1-u-v), v_t=Δ[ψ(u,v)v]+bv(1+du-v),
under homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions. Here u and v denote population densities of prey and predator species, respectively. It is well known that the corresponding stationary problem has a positive steady-state under a suitable condition. Our main interest is to derive useful information on profile and stability of each positive steady-state. In case φ(u,v)=1 and 4,φ(u,v=1+β u, we have shown that the stationary problem has at least three positive solutions if β is sufficiently large and some other conditions are imposed. Moreover, stability or in

stability of each positive solution is also investigated.
The second problem is given by u_t=ε^2u_<xx>+u(1-u)(u-a(x)) with homogeneous Neumann boundary condition, where 0<a(x)<1. When ε is sufficiently small, it is known that this problem admits various kinds of steady-state solutions. In particular, we are interested in steady state with transition layers and spikes. Here transition layer for a solution means a part of u(x) where u(x) drastically changes from 0 to 1 or 1 to 0 in a very short interval. Such oscillating solutions have been studied by Ai-Chen-Hastings and our group, independently. It has been proved that any transition layer appears only in a neighborhood of x such that a(x)=1/2 and that any spike appears only in a neighborhood of x such that a(x) takes its local maximum or minimum. We have also established more information on profiles of multi-transition layers and multi-spikes, their location and the relationship between profile and stability of steady-state solution with transition layers.
