چکیده

The spreading speeds and traveling waves are established for a class of non-monotone discrete-time integrodifference equation models. It is shown that the spreading speed is linearly determinate and coincides with the minimal wave speed of traveling waves.

Existence of Traveling Wavefronts for Integrodifference Equations with Bilateral Exponential Kernel

In this article, we study the existence of traveling wavefronts for integrodifference equation with a bilateral exponential kernel, namely, the Laplacian kernel. The existence of traveling wavefronts is proved by combining the monotone iteration technique with the upper and lower solution method. The minimal spreading speed c∗ is given, which can be figured out exactly when all parameters are g...

Existence of traveling waves for integral recursions with nonmonotone growth functions.

A class of integral recursion models for the growth and spread of a synchronized single-species population is studied. It is well known that if there is no overcompensation in the fecundity function, the recursion has an asymptotic spreading speed c*, and that this speed can be characterized as the speed of the slowest non-constant traveling wave solution. A class of integral recursions with ov...

Systems of Coupled Diffusion Equations with Degenerate Nonlinear Source Terms: Linear Stability and Traveling Waves

Diffusion equations with degenerate nonlinear source terms arise in many different applications, e.g., in the theory of epidemics, in models of cortical spreading depression, and in models of evaporation and condensation in porous media. In this paper, we consider a generalization of these models to a system of n coupled diffusion equations with identical nonlinear source terms. We determine si...

Density-dependent dispersal in integrodifference equations.

Many species exhibit dispersal processes with positive density- dependence. We model this behavior using an integrodifference equation where the individual dispersal probability is a monotone increasing function of local density. We investigate how this dispersal probability affects the spreading speed of a single population and its ability to persist in fragmented habitats. We demonstrate that...

Spreading speed, traveling waves, and minimal domain size in impulsive reaction-diffusion models.

How growth, mortality, and dispersal in a species affect the species' spread and persistence constitutes a central problem in spatial ecology. We propose impulsive reaction-diffusion equation models for species with distinct reproductive and dispersal stages. These models can describe a seasonal birth pulse plus nonlinear mortality and dispersal throughout the year. Alternatively, they can desc...
