In many oscillatory or excitable systems, dynamical patterns emerge which are stationary or periodic up in a moving frame of reference. Examples include traveling waves or spiral waves in chemical systems or cardiac tissue. We present a…
This paper focuses on traveling wave solutions for the so-called Rosenzweig-MacArthur model with spatial diffusion. The main results of this note are concerned with the existence and uniqueness of traveling wave solution as well as periodic…
We study waves in a chain of dispersively coupled phase oscillators. Two approaches -- a quasi-continuous approximation and an iterative numerical solution of the lattice equation -- allow us to characterize different types of traveling…
For Nicholson's blowflies equation, a kind of reaction-diffusion equations with time-delay, when the ratio of birth rate coefficient and death rate coefficient satisfies $\frac{p}{\delta}>e$, the large time-delay $r>0$ usually causes the…
Travelling waves of neural firing activity are observed in brain tissue as a part of various sensory, motor and cognitive processes. They represent an object of major interest in the study of excitable networks, with analysis conducted in…
Cortical spreading depression and spreading depolarization (CSD) are waves of neuronal depolarization that spread across the cortex, leading to a temporary saturation of brain activity. They are associated to various brain disorders such as…
We study coarse pattern formation in a cellular automaton modelling a spatially-extended stochastic neural network. The model, originally proposed by Gong and Robinson [36], is known to support stationary and travelling bumps of localised…
Sensory perception (e.g. vision) relies on a hierarchy of cortical areas, in which neural activity propagates in both directions, to convey information not only about sensory inputs but also about cognitive states, expectations and…
We present a numerical method for computing the pure-point spectrum associated with the linear stability of multi-dimensional travelling fronts to parabolic nonlinear systems. Our method is based on the Evans function shooting approach.…
In this paper we consider the spectral and nonlinear stability of periodic traveling wave solutions of a generalized Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equation. In particular, we resolve the long-standing question of nonlinear modulational stability by…
We study rotating waves in the Theta model for a ring of synaptically-interacting neurons. We prove that when the neurons are oscillatory, at least one rotating wave always exists. In the case of excitable neurons, we prove that no…
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 show that a grating amplitude stationary in space but oscillating in time can be accurately modelled as a set of independent gratings travelling in opposite directions, interacting almost exclusively with waves travelling in the same…
This paper is devoted to the study of existence, uniqueness, stability, and monotonicity of traveling wave solutions to the following parabolic-elliptic chemotaxis system with logistic type source…
An inhomogeneous anisotropic physical model of the brain cortex is presented that predicts the emergence of non--evanescent (weakly damped) wave--like modes propagating in the thin cortex layers transverse to both the mean neural fiber…
We study the effects of coupling between layers of stochastic neural field models with laminar structure. In particular, we focus on how the propagation of waves of neural activity in each layer is affected by the coupling. Synaptic…
We study an incompressible Darcy's free boundary problem, recently introduced in [22]. Our goal is to prove the existence of non-trivial traveling wave solutions and thus validate the interest of this model to describe cell motility. The…
We consider a reaction-diffusion system of densities of two types of particles, introduced by Edouard Hannezo et al. in the context of branching morphogenesis. It is a simple model for a growth process: active, branching particles form the…
We study a Rock-Paper-Scissors model for competing populations that exhibits travelling waves in one spatial dimension and spiral waves in two spatial dimensions. A characteristic feature of the model is the presence of a robust…
I present the numerical computation of speed and direction of the drift of a spiral wave in an excitable medium in the presence of an electric field. In contrast to earlier results, the drift speed presents a strong variation close to the…
