    The numerical solution of a Cauchy problem for nonlinear reaction diffusion processes is studied. The problem is divided in two parts: a hyperbolic term solved by using the Hopf and Lax formula and a parabolic term solved by a backward linearized Euler method in time and a finite element method in space. The convergence of the scheme is studied, as well as the existence of global solutions and finite time blow-up.
