A reaction-diffusion model which is called the field-road model was introduced by Berestycki, Roquejoffre and Rossi [9] to describe biological invasion with fast diffusion on a line. In this paper, we investigate this model in a…
We introduce a speed selection mechanism for front propagation in reaction-diffusion systems with multiple fields. This mechanism applies to pulled and pushed fronts alike, and operates by restricting the fields to large "finite" intervals…

Autocatalytic reaction fronts between reacted and unreacted species may propagate as solitary waves, namely at a constant front velocity and with a stationary concentration profile, resulting from a balance between molecular diffusion and…
Spontaneous pattern formation in living systems is driven by reaction-diffusion chemistry and active mechanics. The feedback between chemical and mechanical forces is often essential to robust pattern formation, yet it remains poorly…

We study, in dimensions $N\geq 3$, the family of first integrals of an incompressible flow: these are $H^{1}_{loc}$ functions whose level surfaces are tangent to the streamlines of the advective incompressible field. One main motivation for…
We study diffusion and mixing in different linear fluid dynamics models, mainly related to incompressible flows. In this setting, mixing is a purely advective effect which causes a transfer of energy to high frequencies. When diffusion is…
We consider bistable reaction-diffusion equations in funnel-shaped domains of R N made up of straight parts and conical parts with positive opening angles. We study the large time dynamics of entire solutions emanating from a planar front…
The purpose of this article is to investigate the emergence of cross-diffusion in the time evolution of two slow-fast species in competition. A class of triangular cross-diffusion system is obtained as the singular limit of a fast…
The empirical speed of travelling reaction-diffusion fronts fluctuates due to the intrinsic shot noise of the reactions and diffusion. Here we study the long-time front speed fluctuations of a stochastic Huxley-Zel'dovich front. It involves…
