Convergence to a terrace solution in multistable reaction-diffusion equations with discontinuities

Analysis of PDEs 2022-08-01 v1

Abstract

In this paper we address the large-time behavior of solutions of bistable and multistable reaction-diffusion equations with discontinuities around the stable steady states. We show that the solution always converges to a special solution, which may either be a traveling wave in the bistable case, or more generally a terrace (i.e. a collection of stacked traveling waves with ordered speeds) in the multistable case.
