A free boundary problem in biological selection models

Probability 2017-07-06 v1 Analysis of PDEs Populations and Evolution

Abstract

We prove local existence for classical solutions of a free boundary problem which arises in one of the biological selection models proposed by Brunet and Derrida, [3]. The problem we consider describes the limit evolution of branching brownian particles on the line with death of the leftmost particle at each creation time as studied in [7]. We use extensively results in [1] and [2].
