The fractality of the relaxation modes in deterministic   reaction-diffusion systems
  In chaotic reaction-diffusion systems with two degrees of freedom, the modes governing the exponential relaxation to the thermodynamic equilibrium present a fractal structure which can be characterized by a Hausdorff dimension. For long wavelength modes, this dimension is related to the Lyapunov exponent and to a reactive diffusion coefficient. This relationship is tested numerically on a reactive multibaker model and on a two-dimensional periodic reactive Lorentz gas. The agreement with the theory is excellent.
