چکیده

In this paper we study the large-time behavior of solutions of one-dimensional fractional Fisher-KPP reaction-diffusion equations, when the initial condition is asymptotically frontlike and it decays at infinity more slowly than a power x−b, where b < 2α and α ∈ (0, 1) is the order of the fractional Laplacian. We prove that the level sets of the solutions move exponentially fast as time goes to infinity. Moreover, a quantitative estimate of motion of the level sets is obtained in terms of the decay of the initial condition.

Fast propagation for KPP equations with slowly decaying initial conditions

This paper is devoted to the analysis of the large-time behavior of solutions of one-dimensional Fisher-KPP reaction-diffusion equations. The initial conditions are assumed to be globally front-like and to decay at infinity towards the unstable steady state more slowly than any exponentially decaying function. We prove that all level sets of the solutions move infinitely fast as time goes to in...

Invasions Slow Down or Collapse in the Presence of Reactive Boundaries

Motivated by the propagation of thin bacterial films around planar obstacles, this paper considers the dynamics of travelling wave solutions to the Fisher-KPP equation [Formula: see text] in a planar strip [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text]. We examine the propagation of fronts in the presence of a mixed boundary condition (also referred to as a 'partially absorbing' or 'reactive' boundar...

A KPP road-field system with spatially periodic exchange terms

We take interest in a reaction-diffusion system which has been recently proposed [11] as a model for the effect of a road on propagation phenomena arising in epidemiology and ecology. This system consists in coupling a classical Fisher-KPP equation in a half-plane with a line with fast diffusion accounting for a straight road. The effect of the line on spreading properties of solutions (with co...

Recent progress in the theory of Nonlinear Diffusion with Fractional Laplacian Operators

We report on recent progress in the study of nonlinear diffusion equations involving nonlocal, long-range diffusion effects. Our main concern is the so-called fractional porous medium equation, ∂tu + (−∆)(u) = 0, and some of its generalizations. Contrary to usual porous medium flows, the fractional version has infinite speed of propagation for all exponents 0 < s < 1 and m > 0; on the other han...

Fractional-order Legendre wavelets and their applications for solving fractional-order differential equations with initial/boundary conditions

In this manuscript a new method is introduced for solving fractional differential equations. The fractional derivative is described in the Caputo sense. The main idea is to use fractional-order Legendre wavelets and operational matrix of fractional-order integration. First the fractional-order Legendre wavelets (FLWs) are presented. Then a family of piecewise functions is proposed, based on whi...
