Figure 5. Cis-inhibiting interactions facilitate other periodic patterns to form.
(A) Stationary stable stripped pattern of ligand levels that is a stable solution of the dynamics to small perturbations. Color code as in Fig. 3A. (B) Region (gray) where the pattern of stripes on a regular hexagonal array is a stable solution of the dynamics to small perturbations (Methods and Text S1) in the parameter space of cis and trans-interactions strengths 
and 
. Parameter values: 
, 
and 
for all panels and 
and 
for panel A. The stripped pattern appears also for 
in the cis-inhibition regime (data not shown).
