Comparisons of Numerical and Solitary Wave Solutions for the Stochastic Reaction–Diffusion Biofilm Model including Quorum Sensing

This study deals with a stochastic reaction–diffusion biofilm model under quorum sensing. Quorum sensing is a process of communication between cells that permits bacterial communication about cell density and alterations in gene expression. This model produces two results: the bacterial concentration, which over time demonstrates the development and decomposition of the biofilm, and the biofilm bacteria collaboration, which demonstrates the potency of resistance and defense against environmental stimuli. In this study, we investigate numerical solutions and exact solitary wave solutions with the presence of randomness. The finite difference scheme is proposed for the sake of numerical solutions while the generalized Riccati equation mapping method is applied to construct exact solitary wave solutions. The numerical scheme is analyzed by checking consistency and stability. The consistency of the scheme is gained under the mean square sense while the stability condition is gained by the help of the Von Neumann criteria. Exact stochastic solitary wave solutions are constructed in the form of hyperbolic, trigonometric, and rational forms. Some solutions are plots in 3D and 2D form to show dark, bright and solitary wave solutions and the effects of noise as well. Mainly, the numerical results are compared with the exact solitary wave solutions with the help of unique physical problems. The comparison plots are dispatched in three dimensions and line representations as well as by selecting different values of parameters.
