Travelling wave solutions of the density-suppressed motility model

Analysis of PDEs 2020-06-24 v1

Abstract

In this paper, we study the traveling wave solutions to the density-suppressed motility model describing the ``self-trapping'' mechanism that induces spatio-temporal pattern formations observed in the experiment. We establish the existence of traveling wavefronts with a minimal wave speed and discuss the selection of wave profiles supplemented with numerical simulations illustrating the wave patterns which are well consistent with experimental observations.
