TL;DR: Local well-posedness and global existence of solutions for reaction-diffusion systems are established using classical potential theory and linear estimates for initial boundary value problems.
Abstract: We consider a reaction-diffusion system where some components react and diffuse on the boundary of a region, while other components diffuse in the interior and react with those on the boundary through mass transport. We establish local well-posedness and global existence of solutions for these systems using classical potential theory and linear estimates for initial boundary value problems.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a broad overview of the application of the Hopf maximum principle in the study of partial differential equations (PDE) with a focus on elliptic and hyperbolic solutions.
Abstract: This book is devoted to the study of maximum principles in partial differential equations. I t contains a wealth of material much of which is presented for the first time in a book form. An attractive feature of the book is that it is completely elementary and thus accessible to a wide audience of readers. The book has four chapters. Chapter I deals with the one dimensional maximum principle. The discussion of this very simple model of a maximum principle forms a good introduction to the general theory. Various applications of the principle are given to show that it is a very useful tool even in the study of ordinary differential equations. As an example, it is shown that many oscillation and comparison results in the Sturm-Liouville theory could be deduced most easily by a maximum principle argument. The proper discussion of maximum principles in partial differential equations begins in Chapter II . This chapter, which is the backbone of the book, is devoted to elliptic equations. The material covered in this chapter includes the E. Hopf maximum principle and its generalizations; the Phragmèn-Lindelöf principle for solutions of elliptic equations; Serrin's version of the Harnack inequality for solutions of general elliptic equations in two variables (this is probably the most difficult result discussed in the book) ; various versions of the Hadamard three circles theorems for solutions of elliptic equations; applications of the maximum principle to nonlinear equations and to problems of fluid flow. Chapter III is devoted to parabolic equations. The plan of this chapter parallels that of Chapter II . The topics discussed include the L. Nirenberg strong maximum principle; a three curves theorem with an interesting application to the Tikhonov uniqueness theorem; a Phragmèn-Lindelöf principle for parabolic equations with applications to uniqueness results; nonlinear operators; a maximum principle for certain parabolic systems. The fourth and the last chapter is devoted to hyperbolic equations. The results in this chapter are somewhat special since a maximum principle in the proper sense does not hold for solutions of hyperbolic equations. Nevertheless, solutions of certain hyperbolic equations

TL;DR: A coupled bulk-surface system of partial differential equations with nonlinear coupling modelling receptor-ligand dynamics that proves the existence and uniqueness of solutions and convergence to limiting problems which take the form of free boundary problems posed on the cell surface is considered.
Abstract: We consider a coupled bulk-surface system of partial differential equations with nonlinear coupling modelling receptor-ligand dynamics. The model arises as a simplification of a mathematical model for the reaction between cell surface resident receptors and ligands present in the extra-cellular medium. We prove the existence and uniqueness of solutions. We also consider a number of biologically relevant asymptotic limits of the model. We prove convergence to limiting problems which take the form of free boundary problems posed on the cell surface. We also report on numerical simulations illustrating convergence to one of the limiting problems as well as the spatio-temporal distributions of the receptors and ligands in a realistic geometry.

TL;DR: In this paper, a certain class of coupled bulk-surface reaction-drift-diffusion systems arising in the modeling of signalling networks in biological cells is analyzed and the existence of weak and classical solutions for reaction terms with at most linear growth is shown.
Abstract: We analyze a certain class of coupled bulk–surface reaction–drift–diffusion systems arising in the modeling of signalling networks in biological cells. The coupling is by a nonlinear Robin-type boundary condition for the bulk variable and a corresponding source term on the cell boundary. For reaction terms with at most linear growth and under different regularity assumptions on the data we prove the existence of weak and classical solutions. In particular, we show that solutions grow at most exponentially with time. Furthermore, we rigorously derive an asymptotic reduction to a non-local reaction–drift–diffusion system on the membrane in the fast-diffusion limit.

TL;DR: In this paper, two full models were derived from reaction-diffusion equations in the bulk and the thin membrane, respectively, with two types of reasonable transmission conditions linking the two, and in the limit of δ → 0, they obtained two effective models, with one being a bulk-surface model and the other being the dynamical boundary value problem model, from which the surface density of the other substance was recovered.
