The empirical speed of travelling reaction-diffusion fronts fluctuates due to the intrinsic shot noise of the reactions and diffusion. Here we study the long-time front speed fluctuations of a stochastic Huxley-Zel'dovich front. It involves…

Front propagation into unstable states is often determined by the linearization, that is, propagation speeds agree with predictions from the linearized equation at the unstable state. The leading edge behavior is then a Gaussian tail…

We study the propagation of high peaks (intermittency front) of the solution to a stochastic heat equation driven by multiplicative centered Gaussian noise in $\mathbb{R}^d$. The noise is assumed to have a general homogeneous covariance in…

We study an extended system that without noise shows a spatially homogeneous state, but when submitted to an adequate multiplicative noise, some "noise-induced patterns" arise. The stochastic resonance between these structures is…

We study convective stability of a two-front superposition in a reaction-diffusion system. Due to the instability of the connecting equilibrium, long-range semi-strong interaction is expected between the two waves. When restricting to the…

We investigate the asymptotic relaxation of so-called pulled fronts propagating into an unstable state. The ``leading edge representation'' of the equation of motion reveals the universal nature of their propagation mechanism and allows us…

This paper is concerned with the propagating speeds of transition fronts in $R^N$ for spatially periodic bistable reaction-diffusion equations. The notion of transition fronts generalizes the standard notions of traveling fronts. Under the…

In this paper we present a general result with an easily checkable condition that ensures a transition from chaotic regime to regular regime in random dynamical systems with additive noise. We show how this result applies to a prototypical…

We study the asymptotics of Allen-Cahn-type bistable reaction-diffusion equations which are additively perturbed by a stochastic forcing (time white noise). The conclusion is that the long time, large space behavior of the solutions is…

We show that propagation speeds in invasion processes modeled by reaction-diffusion systems are determined by marginal spectral stability conditions, as predicted by the marginal stability conjecture. This conjecture was recently settled in…
