For scalar reaction-diffusion equations, a traveling wave is a front which transforms a higher energy state to a lower energy state. The same is true for a system of equations with a gradient structure. At the core of this phenomenon, the…

We study entire solutions to homogeneous reaction-diffusion equations in several dimensions with Fisher-KPP reactions. Any entire solution $0<u<1$ is known to satisfy \[ \lim_{t\to -\infty} \sup_{|x|\le c|t|} u(t,x) = 0 \qquad \text{for…
