Reaction-diffusion equations (RDEs) model the spatiotemporal evolution of a density field $u(\vec{x},t)$ according to diffusion and net local changes. Usually, the diffusivity is positive for all values of $u,$ which causes the density to…

Dispersive shock waves dominate wave-breaking phenomena in Hamiltonian systems. In the absence of loss, these highly irregular and disordered waves are potentially reversible. However, no experimental evidence has been given about the…

In this work, we prove a comparison result for a general class of nonlinear dispersive unidirectional wave equations. The dispersive nature of one-dimensional waves occurs because of a convolution integral in space. For two specific choices…
