We study travelling fronts of equations of the form $u_{tt} + \phi(u) u_x = u_{xx} + f(u)$. A criterion for the transition from linear to nonlinear marginal stability is established for positive functions $\phi(u)$ and for any reaction term…
Propagation of transition fronts in models of coupled oscillators with non-degenerate on-site potential is usually considered in terms of travelling waves. We show that the system dynamics can be reformulated as an implicit map structure,…

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…

We consider in this paper a diffusion-convection reaction equation in one space dimension. The main assumptions are about the reaction term, which is monostable, and the diffusivity, which changes sign once or twice; then, we deal with a…
In this paper, we generalize the usual notions of waves, fronts and propagation speeds in a very general setting. These new notions, which cover all classical situations, involve uniform limits, with respect to the geodesic distance, to a…
Reaction-diffusion equations on infinite graphs can have an infinite number of stationary solutions. These solutions are generally described as roots of a countable system of algebraic equations. As a generalization of periodic stationary…
We consider solutions of a scalar reaction-diffusion equation of the ignition type with a random, stationary and ergodic reaction rate. We show that solutions of the Cauchy problem spread with a deterministic rate in the long time limit. We…

It is known that solutions of nonlocal dispersal evolution equations do not become smoother in space as time elapses. This lack of space regularity would cause a lot of difficulties in studying transition fronts in nonlocal equations. In…
