For any $N \geq 2$, we show that there are choices of diffusion rates $\{d_i\}_{i=1}^N$ such that for $N$ competing species which are ecologically identical and having distinct diffusion rates, the slowest disperser is able to competitive…
The current paper is concerned with the existence of spreading speeds and linear determinacy for two species competition systems with nonlocal dispersal in time and space periodic habitats. The notion of spreading speed intervals for such a…
We study a large class of 1D reaction diffusion models with quenched disorder using a real space renormalization group method (RSRG) which yields exact results at large time. Particles (e.g. of several species) undergo diffusion with random…
The quasidiffusion (QD) method, also known as the Variable Eddington Factor (VEF) method in the astrophysical community, is an established iterative method for accelerating source iterations in SN calculations. A great advantage of the QD…
We consider the spreading dynamics of the Fisher-KPP equation in a shifting environment, by analyzing the limit of the rate function of the solutions. For environments with a weak monotone condition, it was demonstrated in a previous paper…

The standard diffusive spreading, characterized by a Gaussian distribution with mean square displacement that grows linearly with time, can break down, for instance, under the presence of correlations and heterogeneity. In this work, we…
