The Gierer-Meinhardt reaction-diffusion model is analyzed using a spectral collocation method. This reaction-diffusion system is governed by activator and inhibitor concentrations. Initially, the system is considered in one dimension and then in two dimensions; numerical results are presented for both cases. The algorithmic complexity and accuracy are compared to those of a moving finite element method. Finally, observations are made concerning when to use the proposed spectral method as opposed to the established moving mesh method.
