Numerical approximations of stochastic Gray-Scott model with two novel schemes.

This article deals with coupled nonlinear stochastic partial differential equations. It is a reaction-diffusion system, known as the stochastic Gray-Scott model. The numerical approximation of the stochastic Gray-Scott model is discussed with the proposed stochastic forward Euler (SFE) scheme and the proposed stochastic non-standard finite difference (NSFD) scheme. Both schemes are consistent with the given system of equations. The linear stability analysis is discussed. The proposed SFE scheme is conditionally stable and the proposed stochastic NSFD is unconditionally stable. The convergence of the schemes is also discussed in the mean square sense. The simulations of the numerical solution have been obtained by using the MATLAB package for the various values of the parameters. The effects of randomness are discussed. Regarding the graphical behavior of the stochastic Gray-Scott model, self-replicating behavior is observed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
