We study the one-dimensional Fisher-KPP equation, with an initial condition $u_0(x)$ that coincides with the step function except on a compact set. A well-known result of M. Bramson states that, as $t\to+\infty$, the solution converges to a…

The present work concerns a version of the Fisher-KPP equation where the nonlinear term is replaced by a saturation mechanism, yielding a free boundary problem with mixed conditions. Following an idea proposed in [BrunetDerrida.2015], we…

We consider the solution to the scalar Fisher-KPP equation with front-like initial data, focusing on the location of its level sets at large times, particularly their deviation from points moving at the known spreading speed. We consider an…

We consider the Fisher-KPP equation with a non-local interaction term. Hamel and Ryzhik showed that in solutions of this equation, the front location at a large time $t$ is $\sqrt 2 t +o(t)$. We study the asymptotics of the second order…

We establish the logarithmic Bramson correction to the position of solutions to the Fisher--KPP equation with nonlocal diffusion. Solutions with step-like initial data typically resemble a front at position $c_{*} t - \frac{3}{2…

We consider the solution $u(x,t)$ of the Fisher-KPP equation $\partial_t u=\partial_x^2u+u-u^2$ centred around its $\alpha$-level $\mu_t^{(\alpha)}$ defined as $u(\mu_t^{(\alpha)},t)=\alpha$. It is well known that for an initial datum that…

We consider the non-local Fisher-KPP equation modeling a population with individuals competing with each other for resources with a strength related to their distance, and obtain the asymptotics for the position of the invasion front…

We provide the first PDE proof of the celebrated Bramson's $o(1)$ results in 1983 concerning the large time asymptotics for the KPP equation under front-like initial data of types $x^{k+1}e^{-\lambda_*x}$ and $x^{\boldsymbol{\nu}}…
