Abstrakt: In this work we study a reaction-diffusion problem with delay and we make an analysis of the stability of solutions by means of bifurcation theory. We take the delay constant as a parameter. Special conditions on the vector field assure existence of a spatially nonconstant positive equilibrium U k , which is stable for small values of the delay. An increase of the delay destabilizes the equilibrium of U k and leads to super or subcritical Hopf bifurcation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
