Exhaustive study of the noise-induced phase transition in a stochastic model of self-catalyzed reactions

We completely investigate the stationary distribution density in the space of relative concentrations for the three-parameter stochastic Horsthemke–Lefever model of a binary self-catalyzed cyclic chemical reaction with perturbations produced by thermal fluctuations of reagents taken into account. This model is a stationary diffusion random process generated by a stochastic equation with the Stratonovich differential, whose marginal distribution density admits a bifurcation restructuring from the unimodal to the bimodal phase with increasing noise intensity, which is interpreted physically as a dynamical phase transition induced by fluctuations in the system.
