In this paper we consider the discrete Allen-Cahn equation posed on a two-dimensional rectangular lattice. We analyze the large-time behaviour of solutions that start as bounded perturbations to the well-known planar front solution that…
A modification of the parabolic Allen-Cahn equation, determined by the substitution of Fick's diffusion law with a relaxation relation of Cattaneo-Maxwell type, is considered. The analysis concentrates on traveling fronts connecting the two…
We study front propagation problems for forced mean curvature flows and their phase field variants that take place in stratified media, i.e., heterogeneous media whose characteristics do not vary in one direction. We consider phase change…
Reaction-diffusion waves in multiple spatial dimensions advance at a rate that strongly depends on the curvature of the wave fronts. These waves have important applications in many physical, ecological, and biological systems. In this work,…
We consider general reaction diffusion systems posed on rectangular lattices in two or more spatial dimensions. We show that travelling wave solutions to such systems that propagate in rational directions are nonlinearly stable under small…
Constrained gradient flows are studied in fracture mechanics to describe strongly irreversible (or unidirectional) evolution of cracks. The present paper is devoted to a study on the long-time behavior of non-compact orbits of such…
We consider a nonlocal semi-linear parabolic equation on a connected exterior domain of the form $\mathbb{R}^N\setminus K$, where $K\subset\mathbb{R}^N$ is a compact "obstacle". The model we study is motivated by applications in biology and…
We study the propagation of waves in quasi-one-dimensional finite periodic systems whose classical (ray) dynamics is diffusive. By considering a random matrix model for a chain of $L$ identical chaotic cavities, we show that its average…
This paper is devoted to study the wave propagation and its stability for a class of two-component discrete diffusive systems. We first establish the existence of positive monotone monostable traveling wave fronts. Then, applying the…
Propagation of transition fronts in models of coupled oscillators with non-degenerate on-site potential is usually considered in terms of travelling waves. We show that the system dynamics can be reformulated as an implicit map structure,…
In this Letter we describe a novel class of dynamical excitations -- accelerating oscillatory fronts in a new genre of nonlinear sonic vacua with strongly non-local effects. Indeed, it is surprising that such models naturally arise in…
We consider a system of two reaction-diffusion-advection equations describing the one dimensional directed motion of particles with superimposed diffusion and mutual alignment. For this system we show the existence of traveling wave…
Spreading processes on top of active dynamics provide a novel theoretical framework for capturing emerging collective behavior in living systems. I consider run-and-tumble dynamics coupled with coagulation/decoagulation reactions that lead…
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 analyze ``pulled'' or ``linearly marginally stable'' fronts propagating into unstable states. While ``pushed'' fronts into meta- and unstable states relax exponentially, pulled fronts relax algebraically, and simultaneously the standard…
We study the behavior of shallow water waves propagating over bathymetry that varies periodically in one direction and is constant in the other. Plane waves traveling along the constant direction are known to evolve into solitary waves, due…
We consider a 2+1 dimensional wave equation appearing in the context of polarized waves for the nonlinear Maxwell equations. The equation is quasilinear in the time derivatives and involves two material functions $V$ and $\Gamma$. We prove…
The propagation of a spherical wave through a two-dimensional random Lorentz gas composed of small fixed scatterers is studied. Inspired by the Mott problem (how an initially isotropic quantum wave can give rise to a single particle-like…
We consider the Allen-Cahn equation with nonlinear anisotropic diffusion and derive anisotropic direction-dependent curvature flow under the sharp interface limit. The anisotropic curvature flow was already studied, but its derivation is…
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…
