Abstract

The dynamical reaction-diffusion Selkov system as a model describing the complex traveling wave behavior is presented. The approximate amplitude-phase solution allows us to extract the base properties of the biochemical distributed system, which determines such patterns. It is shown that this relatively simple model could describe qualitatively the main features of the glycolysis waves observed in the experiments.
