We study the coupling of a Fisher-Kolmogorov-Petrovsky-Piskunov (FKPP) equation to a separate, advection-only transport process. We find that the front dynamics can be described by an FKPP-like equation only at sufficiently fast diffusion…

We study reaction-diffusion systems where diffusion is by jumps whose sizes are distributed exponentially. We first study the Fisher-like problem of propagation of a front into an unstable state, as typified by the A+B $\to$ 2A reaction. We…
