We study the dynamics of the Fisher-KPP equation on the infinite homogeneous tree and Erd\H{o}s-R\'eyni random graphs. We assume initial data that is zero everywhere except at a single node. For the case of the homogeneous tree, the…

We study the existence of monotone heteroclinic traveling waves for a general Fisher-Burgers equation with nonlinear and possibly density-dependent diffusion. Such a model arises, for instance, in physical phenomena where a saturation…

We investigate the super-linear spreading in a reaction-diffusion model analogous to the Fisher-KPP equation, but in which the population is heterogeneous with respect to the dispersal ability of individuals, and the saturation factor is…
