There are many interesting patterns observed in activator-inhibitor systems.
A well-known model is the FitzHugh-Nagumo system. In conjunction with
calculus of variations, there is a close relation between the stability
of a steady state and its relative Morse index. We give a sufficient
condition in diffusivity for the existence of standing wavefronts joining
with Turing patterns.
