The (constrained) canonical reduction of four-dimensional self-dual Yang–Mills theory to two-dimensional Fitzhugh–Nagumo and the real Newell–Whitehead equations are considered. On the other hand, other methods and transformations are developed to obtain exact solutions for the original two-dimensional Fitzhugh–Nagumo and Newell– Whitehead equations. The corresponding gauge potential Al and the ...

A unified geometric approach for the stability analysis of traveling pulse solutions reaction-diffusion equations with skew-gradient structure has been established in a previous paper [9], but essentially no results have found case front solutions. In this work, we will bridge gap. For such cases, Maslov index wave is well-defined, and show how it can be used to provide spectral information wav...

We study a reaction-diffusion evolution equation perturbed by a Gaussian noise. Here the leading operator is the infinitesimal generator of a C0-semigroup of strictly negative type, the nonlinear term has at most polynomial growth and is such that the whole system is dissipative. The corresponding Itô stochastic equation describes a process on a Hilbert space with dissipative nonlinear drift an...

Feedback control for the monodomain equations is studied. The dynamics of interest are governed by a coupled PDE-ODE reaction diffusion system with non-monotone nonlinearity of FitzHugh-Nagumo type. A localized distributed control is used to locally stabilize the nonlinear system. This is achieved by a Riccati-based feedback law, determined by the linearized system. It is shown that the Riccati...

The array-enhanced stochastic resonance (AESR) in the diffusively coupled FitzHugh-Nagumo equation is investigated. The two properties of AESR, namely, the scaling of the optimal noise intensity and the enhancement of the maximum value of the correlation coefficient as a function of the coupling strength, are analyzed theoretically. By transforming the dynamics of N elements into that of the me...

We demonstrate the use of the Unified Transform Method or Method of Fokas for boundary value problems for systems of constant-coefficient linear partial differential equations. We discuss how the apparent branch singularities typically appearing in the global relation are removable, allowing the method to proceed, in essence, as for scalar problems. We illustrate the use of the method with boun...

A simplified FitzHugh-Nagumo nerve conduction equation with known traveling wave solutions is considered. The spatial stability of these solutions is analyzed to determine which solutions should occur in signal transmission along such a nerve model. It is found that the slower of the two pulse solutions is unstable while the faster one is stable, so the faster one should occur. This agrees with...

Fractional differential equations have attracted considerable interest because of their ability to model anomalous transport phenomena. Space fractional diffusion equations with a nonlinear reaction term have been presented and used to model many problems of practical interest. In this paper, a two-dimensional Riesz space fractional diffusion equation with a nonlinear reaction term (2D-RSFDE-NR...

Kolmogorov-Petrovskii-Piskunov equation can be regarded as a generalized form of the Fitzhugh-Nagumo, Fisher and Huxley equations which have many applications in physics, chemistry biology. In this paper, two fractional ex-tended versions non-linear are solved by analytical methods. Firstly, new more general derivative is defined some properties it given. Secondly, solution operator representat...
