We extend the class of initial conditions for scalar delayed reaction-diffusion equations $u_t (t,x)=u_{xx}(t,x)+f(u(t, x), u(t-h, x))$ which evolve in solutions converging to monostable traveling waves. Our approach allows to compute, in…
We study the wave equation with potential $u_{tt}-\Delta u+Vu=0$ in two spatial dimensions, with $V$ a real-valued, decaying potential. With $H=-\Delta+V$, we study a variety of mapping estimates of the solution operators, $\cos(t\sqrt{H})$…
