Fronts that start from a local perturbation and propagate into a linearly unstable state come in two classes: pulled and pushed. ``Pulled'' fronts are ``pulled along'' by the spreading of linear perturbations about the unstable state, so…

We revisit the nonlinear stability of the critical invasion front in the Ginzburg-Landau equation. Our main result shows that the amplitude of localized perturbations decays with rate $t^{-3/2}$, while the phase decays diffusively. We…
