We consider an individual-based two-dimensional spatial model with nearest-neighbor preemptive competition to study front propagation between an invader and a resident species. In particular, we investigate the asymptotic front velocity and…

This paper is concerned with spreading properties of space-time heterogeneous Fisher--KPP equations in one space dimension. We focus on the case of everywhere favorable environment with three different zones, a left half-line with slow or…

In this paper, some properties of the minimal speeds of pulsating Fisher-KPP fronts in periodic environments are established. The limit of the speeds at the homogenization limit is proved rigorously. Near this limit, generically, the fronts…

In growing populations, the fate of mutations depends on their competitive ability against the ancestor and their ability to colonize new territory. Here we present a theory that integrates both aspects of mutant fitness by coupling the…

We establish spreading properties of the Lotka-Volterra competition-diffusion system. When the initial data vanish on a right half-line, we derive the exact spreading speeds and prove the convergence to homogeneous equilibrium states…

Both community ecology and conservation biology seek further understanding of factors governing the advance of an invasive species. We model biological invasion as an individual-based, stochastic process on a two-dimensional landscape. An…

Limited dispersal distance, whether associated with vegetative growth or localized reproduction, induces spatial clustering and, in turn, focuses ecological interactions at the neighborhood scale. In particular, most invasive plants are…

When competing species grow into new territory, the population is dominated by descendants of successful ancestors at the expansion front. Successful ancestry depends on both the reproductive advantage (fitness), as well as ability and…

We study the dynamics of the Fisher-KPP equation on the infinite homogeneous tree and Erd\H{o}s-R\'eyni random graphs. We assume initial data that is zero everywhere except at a single node. For the case of the homogeneous tree, the…

We introduce a novel numerical method for direct simulation of front propagation in the Fisher-KPP equation with a time-dependent parameter on an infinite domain. The method computes a time-dependent boundary condition that accurately…

In this paper, we consider a Fisher-KPP equation with an advection term and two free boundaries, which models the behavior of an invasive species in one dimension space. When spreading happens (that is, the solution converges to a positive…

Results of experiments on the dynamics and kinetic roughening of one-dimensional slow-combustion fronts in three grades of paper are reported. Extensive averaging of the data allows a detailed analysis of the spatial and temporal…

This is part two of our study on the spreading properties of the Lotka-Volterra competition-diffusion systems with a stable coexistence state. We focus on the case when the initial data are exponential decaying. By establishing a comparison…

We investigate the super-linear spreading in a reaction-diffusion model analogous to the Fisher-KPP equation, but in which the population is heterogeneous with respect to the dispersal ability of individuals, and the saturation factor is…

This paper is devoted to the study of spatial propagation dynamics of species in locally spatially inhomogeneous patchy environments or media. For a lattice differential equation with monostable nonlinearity in a discrete homogeneous media,…

We determine the asymptotic spreading speed of an invasive species, which invades the territory of a native competitor, governed by a diffusive competition model with a free boundary in a spherically symmetric setting. This free boundary…

We study the propagation speed of bistable traveling waves in the classical two-component diffusive Lotka-Volterra system under strong competition. From an ecological perspective, the sign of the propagation speed determines the long-term…

Biological invasion, whereby populations of motile and proliferative individuals lead to moving fronts that invade into vacant regions, are routinely studied using partial differential equation (PDE) models based upon the classical…

The Fisher-KPP model, and generalisations thereof, is a simple reaction-diffusion models of biological invasion that assumes individuals in the population undergo linear diffusion with diffusivity $D$, and logistic proliferation with rate…

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…
