We are concerned with the Cauchy problem $u_{t}=(u^{m})_{xx}+f(u)$, where the nonliearity $f(u)$ is of combustion type and the initial data is compactly supported. In \cite{lou2024convergence}, among other things, the authors prove that by…

We describe acceleration of the front propagation for solutions to a class of monostable nonlinear equations with a nonlocal diffusion in $\mathbb{R}^d$, $d\geq1$. We show that the acceleration takes place if either the diffusion kernel or…

We consider equation $u_t(t,x) = \Delta u(t,x)- u(t,x) + g(u(t-h,x)) (*) $, when $g:\R_+\to \R_+$ has exactly two fixed points: $x_1= 0$ and $x_2=\kappa>0$. Assuming that $g$ is unimodal and has negative Schwarzian, we indicate explicitly a…

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…
