Diffusive and inviscid traveling waves of the Fisher equation and nonuniqueness of wave speed
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we present an intuitive explanation for the non-uniqueness of the traveling wave speed in the Fisher equation, showing a similar non-uniqueness property in the case of inviscid traveling waves. More precisely, we prove that traveling waves of the Fisher equation with wave speed c > 0 converges to the inviscid traveling wave with speed c > 0 as the diffusion vanishes. A complete diagram that shows the relation between the diffusive and inviscid traveling waves is given in this paper.

Inviscid traveling waves of monostable nonlinearity
Inviscid traveling waves are ghost-like phenomena that do not appear in reality because of their instability. However, they are the reason for the complexity of the traveling wave theory of reaction-diffusion equations and understanding them will help to resolve related puzzles. In this article, we obtain the existence, the uniqueness and the regularity of inviscid traveling waves under a gener...
متن کاملSpreading speed and traveling waves for the diffusive logis- tic equation with a sedentary compartment
By applying the theory of asymptotic speeds of spread and traveling waves to the diffusive logistic equation with a sedentary compartment, we establish the existence of minimal wave speed for monotone traveling waves and show that it coincides with the spreading speed for solutions with initial functions having compact supports.
متن کاملHyperbolic traveling waves driven by growth
We perform the analysis of a hyperbolic model which is the analog of the Fisher-KPP equation. This model accounts for particles that move at maximal speed ε (ε > 0), and proliferate according to a reaction term of monostable type. We study the existence and stability of traveling fronts. We exhibit a transition depending on the parameter ε: for small ε the behaviour is essentially the same as f...
متن کاملSome traveling wave solutions of soliton family
Solitons are ubiquitous and exist in almost every area from sky to bottom. For solitons to appear, the relevant equation of motion must be nonlinear. In the present study, we deal with the Korteweg-deVries (KdV), Modied Korteweg-de Vries (mKdV) and Regularised LongWave (RLW) equations using Homotopy Perturbation method (HPM). The algorithm makes use of the HPM to determine the initial expansion...

The present investigation deals with the reflection and transmission phenomenon due to incident plane longitudinal wave at a plane interface between inviscid fluid half-space and a thermoelastic diffusion solid half-space with dual-phase-lag heat transfer (DPLT) and dual-phase-lag diffusion (DPLD) models. The theory of thermoelasticity with dual-phase-lag heat transfer developed by Roychoudhar...
