The electron-positive fermion gas in three dimensions and $T=0$ is modeled as two independent fermion gases interacting via the coulomb interaction. The main advantage of the simple model is that all existing results from the electron gas…
We study the front propagation in Reaction-Diffusion systems whose reaction dynamics exhibits an unstable fixed point and chaotic or noisy behaviour. We have examined the influence of chaos and noise on the front propagation speed and on…
We study analytically and numerically a model describing front propagation of a KPP reaction in a fluid flow. The model consists of coupled one-dimensional reaction-diffusion equations with different drift coefficients. The main rigorous…
In this paper, we investigate the location of the spreading front and convergence to traveling wave profile of solutions to the Fisher-KPP equation in the following two cases: (i) in unbounded domains with an expanding boundary; (ii) on the…
We study the asymptotic spreading of Kolmogorov-Petrovsky-Piskunov (KPP) fronts in heterogeneous shifting habitats, with any number of shifting speeds, by further developing the method based on the theory of viscosity solutions of…
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…
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 focus on the probability distribution function (pdf) $P(\Delta \gamma; \gamma)$ where $\Delta \gamma$ are the {\em measured} strain intervals between plastic events in an athermal strained amorphous solids, and $\gamma$ measures the…
Picking up, laying down, colliding, rolling, and peeling are partial-contact interactions involving moving discontinuities. We examine the balances of momentum and energy across a moving discontinuity in a string, with allowance for…
Reaction-diffusion waves in multiple spatial dimensions advance at a rate that strongly depends on the curvature of the wave fronts. These waves have important applications in many physical, ecological, and biological systems. In this work,…
