Title: Convergence to self-similar profiles in reaction-diffusion systems

Abstract: We study a reaction-diffusion system on the real line, where the reactions of the species are given by one reversible reaction according to the mass-action law. We describe different positive limits at both sides of infinity and investigate the long-time behavior. Rescaling space and time according to the parabolic scaling, we show that solutions converge exponentially to a constant profile. In the original variables these profiles correspond to asymptotically self-similar behavior describing the diffusive mixing or equilibration of the different states at infinity. Our method provides global exponential convergence for all initial states with finite relative entropy.
