We investigate the uniform boundedness of the fronts of the solutions to the randomized Fisher-KPP equation and to its linearization, the parabolic Anderson model. It has been known that for the standard (i.e. deterministic) Fisher-KPP…

The Fisher-KPP equation is a model for population dynamics that has generated a huge amount of interest since its introduction in 1937. The speed with which a population spreads has been computed quite precisely when the initial data decays…
In this work, we consider a nonlocal Fisher-KPP reaction-diffusion problem with Neumann boundary condition and nonnegative initial data in a bounded domain in $\mathbb{R}^n (n \ge 1)$, with reaction term $u^\alpha(1-m(t))$, where $m(t)$ is…
