Propagating Terraces and the Dynamics of Front-Like Solutions of Reaction-Diffusion Equations on Mathbb{R}

The author considers semilinear parabolic equations of the form u_t=u_xx+f(u),\quad x\in \mathbb R,t>0, where f a C^1 function. Assuming that 0 and \gamma >0 are constant steady states, the author investigates the large-time behavior of the front-like solutions, that is, solutions u whose init...

Sumario:The author considers semilinear parabolic equations of the form u_t=u_xx+f(u),\quad x\in \mathbb R,t>0, where f a C^1 function. Assuming that 0 and \gamma >0 are constant steady states, the author investigates the large-time behavior of the front-like solutions, that is, solutions u whose initial values u(x,0) are near \gamma for x\approx -\infty and near 0 for x\approx \infty . If the steady states 0 and \gamma are both stable, the main theorem shows that at large times, the graph of u(\cdot ,t) is arbitrarily close to a propagating terrace (a system of stacked traveling fonts).
