We introduce a simple model of diffusive jump process where a fee is charged for each jump. The nonlinear cost function is such that slow jumps incur a flat fee, while for fast jumps the cost is proportional to the velocity of the jump. The…

We study invasion fronts and spreading speeds in two component reaction-diffusion systems. Using a variation of Lin's method, we construct traveling front solutions and show the existence of a bifurcation to locked fronts where both…

The microscopic structure and movement of reaction fronts in reaction diffusion systems far from equilibrium are investigated. We show that some three-site interaction models exhibit exact diffusive shock measures, i.e. domains of different…
