In this paper, we study homoclinic stripe patterns in the two-dimensional generalized Gierer--Meinhardt equation, where we interpret this equation as a prototypical representative of a class of singularly perturbed monostable reaction-diffusion equations. The structure of a stripe pattern is essentially one-dimensional; therefore, we can use results from the literature to establish the existence of the homoclinic patterns. However, we extend these results to a maximal domain in the parameter space and establish the existence of a bifurcation that forms a new upper bound on this domain. Beyond this bifurcation, the Gierer--Meinhardt equation exhibits self-replicating pulse, respectively, stripe patterns in one, respectively, two dimension(s). The structure of the self-replication process is very similar to that in the Gray--Scott equation. We investigate the stability of the homoclinic stripe patterns by an Evans function analysis of the associated linear eigenvalue problem. We extend the recently develope...
