摘要
We prove a formula which relates the fixed point index of a parabolic obstacle equation to a fixed point index related to the right-hand side of the equation. The result is applied to a reaction-diffusion system at a constant equilibrium which is subject to Turing's diffusion-driven instability. It is shown that if a unilateral obstacle is added, the system becomes unstable in a parameter domain where the system without obstacle is stable.
