In this paper we focus on three problems about the spreading speeds of nonlocal dispersal Fisher-KPP equations. First, we study the signs of spreading speeds and find that they are determined by the asymmetry level of the nonlocal dispersal…
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…

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…

In this paper, we prove the existence of the spreading speed of nonlocal KPP equations in two cases: 1. The media is almost periodic and the kernel of diffusion is continuous; 2. The media is periodic and the diffusion is not continuous but…
We study the persistence and propagation (or blocking) phenomena for a species in periodically hostile environments. The problem is described by a reaction-diffusion equation with zero Dirichlet boundary condition. We first derive the…
Recently it has been shown that when an equation that allows so-called pulled fronts in the mean-field limit is modelled with a stochastic model with a finite number $N$ of particles per correlation volume, the convergence to the speed…
We give an explicit formula for the change of speed of pushed and bistable fronts of the reaction diffusion equation when a small cutoff is applied at the unstable or metastable equilibrium point. The results are valid for arbitrary…
