  • Abstract
    The cubic nonlinearity activator-inhibitor model equation is a simple example of a pattern-forming system for which strong mathematical results can be obtained. Basic properties of solutions and the derivation of a Lyapunov functional for the cubic nonlinearity model are presented. Potential applications include control of large MEMS actuator arrays
