This paper concerns wave propagation in a class of scalar reaction-diffusion-convection equations with $p$-Laplacian-type diffusion and monostable reaction. We introduce a new concept of a non-smooth traveling wave profile, which allows us…
We study the process of information dispersal in a network with communication errors and local error-correction. Specifically we consider a simple model where a single bit of information initially known to a single source is dispersed…
Consider reaction-diffusion equation $u_t=\Delta u + f(x,u)$ with $x\in\mathbb{R}^d$ and general inhomogeneous ignition reaction $f\ge 0$ vanishing at $u=0,1$. Typical solutions $0\le u\le 1$ transition from $0$ to $1$ as time progresses,…
A particle with internal unobserved states diffusing in a force field will generally display effective advection-diffusion. The drift velocity is proportional to the mobility averaged over the internal states, or effective mobility, while…

The standard diffusive spreading, characterized by a Gaussian distribution with mean square displacement that grows linearly with time, can break down, for instance, under the presence of correlations and heterogeneity. In this work, we…

We simulate a densely jammed, athermal assembly of repulsive soft particles immersed in a solvent. Starting from an initial condition corresponding to a quench from a high temperature, we find non-trivial slow dynamics driven by a gradual…
Spreading information through a network of devices is a core activity for most distributed systems. As such, self-stabilizing algorithms implementing information spreading are one of the key building blocks enabling aggregate computing to…
We consider in this paper a reaction-diffusion system in presence of a flow and under a KPP hypothesis. While the case of a single-equation has been extensively studied since the pioneering Kolmogorov-Petrovski-Piskunov paper, the study of…
We investigate how information spreads in three paradigmatic one-dimensional models with spatial disorder. The models we consider are unitarily related to a system of free fermions and are thus manifestly integrable. We demonstrate that…

We address the propagation into an unstable state of a localised disturbance in a forward-backward diffusion pseudo-parabolic equation. Three asymptotic regimes are distinguished as t tends to infinity, the first being a regime ahead of the…
We show how to achieve both fast and hyperuniform dispersions of particles in viscous fluids. To do so, we first extend the concept of critical random organization to chaotic drives. We show how palindromic sequences of chaotic advection…
