Pinning of diffusional patterns by non-uniform curvature

Diffusion-driven patterns appear on curved surfaces in many settings, initiated by unstable modes of an underlying Laplacian operator. On a flat surface or perfect sphere, the patterns are degenerate, reflecting translational/rotational symmetry. Deformations, e.g., by a bulge or indentation, break...
