This paper addresses the existence and spectral stability of traveling fronts for nonlinear hyperbolic equations with a positive "damping" term and a reaction function of bistable type. Particular cases of the former include the relaxed…
We establish the existence of a stable foliation in the vicinity of a traveling front solution for systems of reaction diffusion equations in one space dimension that arise in the study of chemical reactions models and solid fuel…
We study the dynamics of light-like tachyon condensation in a linear dilaton background using level-truncated open string field theory. The equations of motion are found to be delay differential equations. This observation allows us to…
We use open string field theory to study the dynamics of unstable branes in the bosonic string theory, in the background of a generic linear dilaton. We find a simple exact solution describing a dynamical interpolation between the…
We study the spectral stability of travelling and stationary front and pulse solutions in a class of degenerate reaction-diffusion systems. We characterise the essential spectrum of the linearised operator in full generality and identify…
We study the stability and dynamics of traveling-front solutions of a modified Kuramoto--Sivashinsky equation arising in the modeling of nanoscale ripple patterns that form when a nominally flat solid surface is bombarded with a broad ion…
We analyze the stability and dynamics of bistable planar fronts in multicomponent reaction-diffusion systems on $\mathbb{R}^{d}$. Under standard spectral stability assumptions, we establish Lyapunov stability of the front against fully…
We investigate stability of single S-brane singular solutions obtained in our previous papers. A stable perturbative solution exists for each of them, while an unstable one exists only if the dilaton field does not depend on time. We apply…
We study the planar front solution for a class of reaction diffusion equations in multidimensional space in the case when the essential spectrum of the linearization in the direction of the front touches the imaginary axis. At the linear…
We consider the damped hyperbolic equation (1) \epsilon u_{tt} + u_t = u_{xx} + F(u), x \in R, t \ge 0, where \epsilon is a positive, not necessarily small parameter. We assume that F(0) = F(1) = 0 and that F is concave on the interval…
We consider the damped hyperbolic equation in one space dimension $\epsilon u_{tt} + u_t = u_{xx} + F(u)$, where $\epsilon$ is a positive, not necessarily small parameter. We assume that $F(0)=F(1)=0$ and that $F$ is concave on the interval…
The dynamic process of unstable D-branes decaying into stable ones with one dimension lower can be described by a tachyon field with a Dirac-Born-Infeld effective action. In this paper we investigate the fluctuation modes of the tachyon…
This paper establishes the spectral stability of monotone traveling front solutions for reaction-diffusion equations where the reaction function is of Nagumo (or bistable) type and with diffusivities which are density dependent and…
Recently, Hellerman and Schnabl considered the dynamics of unstable D-branes in the background of a linear dilaton. Remarkably, they were able to construct light-like tachyon solutions which interpolate smoothly between the perturbative and…
We consider the Taylor-Couette problem in an infinitely extended cylindrical domain. There exist modulated front solutions which describe the spreading of the stable Taylor vortices into the region of the unstable Couette flow. These…
When the steady states at infinity become unstable through a pattern forming bifurcation, a travelling wave may bifurcate into a modulated front which is time-periodic in a moving frame. This scenario has been studied by B.Sandstede and…
We consider the damped wave equation \alpha u_tt + u_t = u_xx - V'(u) on the whole real line, where V is a bistable potential. This equation has travelling front solutions of the form u(x,t) = h(x-st) which describe a moving interface…
We discuss the tachyon condensation in a single unstable D-brane in the framework of boundary state formulation. The boundary state in the background of the tachyon condensation and the NS B-field is explicitly constructed. We show in both…
Streamer ionization fronts are pulled fronts propagating into a linearly unstable state; the spatial decay of the initial condition of a planar front selects dynamically one specific long time attractor out of a continuous family. A…
We prove that the steady state of a class of multidimensional reaction-diffusion systems is asymptotically stable at the intersection of unweighted space and exponentially weighted Sobolev spaces, and pay particular attention to a special…
