Many monostable reaction-diffusion equations admit one-dimensional travelling waves if and only if the wave speed is sufficiently high. The values of these minimum wave speeds are not known exactly, except in a few simple cases. We present…
This paper deals with front propagation dynamics of monostable equations with nonlocal dispersal in spatially periodic habitats. In the authors' earlier works, it is shown that a general spatially periodic monostable equation with nonlocal…
We consider a discrete and a continuum model for the propagation of a curvature sensitive interface in a time independent random medium. In both cases we suppose that the medium contains obstacles that act on the propagation of the…
We investigate the asymptotic behavior of solutions for quasilinear parabolic equations in bounded intervals. In particular, we are concerned with a special class of solutions, called interface solutions, which exhibit e metastable…

This paper reviews (and expands) some recent results on the modeling of aggregation-diffusion phenomena at various scales, focusing on the emergence of collective dynamics as a result of the competition between attractive and repulsive…
We investigate the connection between the existence of an explicit travelling wave solution and the travelling wave with minimal speed in a scalar monostable reaction-diffusion equation.
We study a reaction-diffusion system on the real line, where the reactions of the species are given by one reversible reaction according to the mass-action law. We describe different positive limits at both sides of infinity and investigate…
In this paper we consider a bistable reaction-diffusion equation in unbounded domains and we investigate the existence of propagation phenomena, possibly partial, in some direction or, on the contrary, of blocking phenomena. We start by…
We study a monostable reaction-diffusion equation of the form $u_t=du_{xx}+f(u)$ over a semi-infinite spatial domain $[g(t),\infty)$, with $x=g(t)$ the free boundary whose evolution is governed by equations derived from a ``preferred…
We study the metastable dynamics of a discretised version of the mass-conserving stochastic Allen-Cahn equation. Consider a periodic one-dimensional lattice with $N$ sites, and attach to each site a real-valued variable, which can be…
We study the fast reaction limit for a two-component reaction-diffusion system with asymmetric reaction terms, where only one component diffuses. For nonnegative and mutually segregated initial data, we prove that the initial interface…
Reaction-diffusion equations appear in biology and chemistry, and combine linear diffusion with different kind of reaction terms. Some of them are remarkable from the mathematical point of view, since they admit families of travelling waves…
We study the interfaces' time evolution in one-dimensional bistable extended dynamical systems with discrete time. The dynamics is governed by the competition between a local piece-wise affine bistable mapping and any couplings given by the…
There are a number of situations in which rescaled interacting particle systems have been shown to converge to a reaction diffusion equation (RDE) with a bistable reaction term. These RDEs have traveling wave solutions. When the speed of…
A thermodynamic approach to rapid phase transformations within a diffuse interface in a binary system is developed. Assuming an extended set of independent thermodynamic variables formed by the union of the classic set of slow variables and…
We consider a class of cooperative reaction-diffusion systems with free boundaries in one space dimension, where the diffusion terms are nonlocal, given by integral operators involving suitable kernel functions, and they are allowed not to…
In this paper, we investigate the construction of a diffusion process whose time-marginal densities are constrained to belong to a given set at all time. The construction is obtained from a penalization approximation to the constraint set,…
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…
We study diffusion-type equations supported on structures that are randomly varying in time. After settling the issue of well-posedness, we focus on the asymptotic behavior of solutions: our main result gives sufficient conditions for…
