Travelling waves in hyperbolic chemotaxis equations.
Mathematical models of bacterial populations are often written as systems of partial differential equations for the densities of bacteria and concentrations of extracellular (signal) chemicals. This approach has been employed since the seminal work of Keller and Segel in the 1970s (Keller and Segel, J. Theor. Biol. 30:235-248, 1971). The system has been shown to permit travelling wave solutions...
متن کاملTravelling waves in hybrid chemotaxis models.
Hybrid models of chemotaxis combine agent-based models of cells with partial differential equation models of extracellular chemical signals. In this paper, travelling wave properties of hybrid models of bacterial chemotaxis are investigated. Bacteria are modelled using an agent-based (individual-based) approach with internal dynamics describing signal transduction. In addition to the chemotacti...
متن کاملTravelling Waves for Fourth Order Parabolic Equations
We study travelling wave solutions for a class of fourth order parabolic equations. Travelling wave fronts of the form u(x, t) = U(x + ct), connecting homogeneous states, are proven to exist in various cases: connections between two stable states, as well as connections between an unstable and a stable state, are considered.
متن کاملGeneralized travelling waves for reaction-diffusion equations
In this paper, we introduce a generalization of travelling waves for evolution equations. We are especially interested in reaction-diffusion equations and systems in heterogeneous media (with general operators and general geometry). Our goal is threefold. First we give several definitions, for transition waves, fronts, pulses, global mean speed of propagation, etc. Next, we discuss the meaning ...
متن کاملStability of Travelling Waves for a Damped Hyperbolic Equation
We consider a nonlinear damped hyperbolic equation in R, 1 ≤ n ≤ 4, depending on a positive parameter ǫ. If we set ǫ = 0, this equation reduces to the well-known Kolmogorov-Petrovski-Piskunov equation. We remark that, after a change of variables, this hyperbolic equation has the same family of one-dimensional travelling waves as the KPP equation. Using various energy functionals, we show that, ...
