We study the radially symmetric high dimensional Fisher-KPP nonlocal diffusion equation with free boundary, and reveal some fundamental differences from its one dimensional version considered in \cite{cdjfa} recently. Technically, this high…

We revisit the existence and stability of the critical front in the extended Fisher-KPP equation, refining earlier results of Rottsch\"afer and Wayne [28] which establish stability of fronts without identifying a precise decay rate. We…

We consider the Fisher-KPP reaction-diffusion equation in the whole space. We prove that if a solution has, to main order and for all times (positive and negative), the same exponential decay as a planar traveling wave with speed larger…

Several spatially continuous pedestrian dynamics models have been validated against empirical data. We try to reproduce the experimental fundamental diagram (velocity versus density) with simulations. In addition to this quantitative…

We describe traveling waves in a basic model for three-dimensional water-wave dynamics in the weakly nonlinear long-wave regime. Small solutions that are periodic in the direction of translation (or orthogonal to it) form an…

Moving boundary problems allow to model systems with phase transition at an inner boundary. Driven by problems in economics and finance, in particular modeling of limit order books, we consider a stochastic and non-linear extension of the…

This paper considers a new model of individual displacement, based on fish motion, the so-called Persistent Turning Walker (PTW) model, which involves an Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process on the curvature of the particle trajectory. The goal is to…

We evaluate the Community ocean Vertical Mixing (CVMix) project version of the K-profile parameterization (KPP). For this purpose, one-dimensional KPP simulations are compared across a suite of oceanographically relevant regimes against…

Incorporating free boundary into time-delayed reaction-diffusion equations yields a compatible condition that guarantees the well-posedness of the initial value problem. With the KPP type nonlinearity we then establish a vanishing-spreading…
