We consider the one-dimensional Fisher-KPP equation with step-like initial data. Nolen, Roquejoffre, and Ryzhik showed that the solution $u$ converges at long time to a traveling wave $\phi$ at a position $\tilde \sigma(t) = 2t - (3/2)\log…

We study the large time asymptotics of a solution of the Fisher-KPP reaction-diffusion equation, with an initial condition that is a compact perturbation of a step function. A well-known result of Bramson states that, in the reference frame…

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 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 study the asymptotic behaviour, as time goes to infinity, of the Fisher-KPP equation $\partial_t u=\Delta u +u-u^2$ in spatial dimension $2$, when the initial condition looks like a Heaviside function. Thus the solution is,…

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…

For a simple one dimensional lattice version of a travelling wave equation, we obtain an exact relation between the initial condition and the position of the front at any later time. This exact relation takes the form of an inverse problem:…

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 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}}…

We consider a class of reaction-diffusion equations of Fisher-KPP type in which the nonlinearity (reaction term) $f$ is merely $C^1$ at $u=0$ due to a logarithmic competition term. We first derive the asymptotic behavior of (minimal speed)…

Take the linearised FKPP equation \[\partial_t h =\partial^2_x h +h\] with boundary condition $h(m(t),t)=0$. Depending on the behaviour of the initial condition $h_0(x)=h(x,0)$ we obtain the asymptotics - up to a $o(1)$ term $r(t)$ - of the…
