We consider a family of one-dimensional diffusions, in dynamical Wiener mediums, which are random perturbations of the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck diffusion process. We prove quenched and annealed convergences in distribution and under weighted…

We perform the analysis of a hyperbolic model which is the analog of the Fisher-KPP equation. This model accounts for particles that move at maximal speed $\epsilon^{-1}$ ($\epsilon\textgreater{}0$), and proliferate according to a reaction…

In this paper, we mainly investigate the spreading dynamics of a nonlocal diffusion KPP model with free boundaries which is firstly explored in time almost periodic media. As the spreading occurs, the long-run dynamics are obtained.…

The asymptotic wave speed for FKPP type reaction-diffusion equations on a class of infinite random metric trees are considered. We show that a travelling wavefront emerges, provided that the reaction rate is large enough. The wavefront…
