We study the speed of propagation of fronts for the scalar reaction-diffusion equation $u_t = u_{xx} + f(u)$\, with $f(0) = f(1) = 0$. We give a new integral variational principle for the speed of the fronts joining the state $u=1$ to…
We study the reaction-fractional-diffusion equation $u_t+(-\Delta)^{s} u=f(u)$ with ignition and monostable reactions $f$, and $s\in(0,1)$. We obtain the first optimal bounds on the propagation of front-like solutions in the cases where no…
