Finding stationary fronts for a discrete Nagumo and wave equation; construction (Q2499756)

Single front monotone stationary solutions are constructed (in a given special form) to \[ u_n^{(i)}(t)=d[u_{n+1}(t)-2u_n(t)+ u_{n-1}(t)]- f(u_n(t),a), \quad i=1,2, \] for zigzag shaped \[ f(u,a)=\begin{cases} u, & u<a/2,\\ a-u, & a/2\leq u\leq(a+1)/2, \\ u-1, & u>(a+1)/2 ,\end{cases} \] with boundary conditions \(u_{-\infty}=0\), \(u_{+\infty}=1\). It is shown on one hand that there exist an interval of \(a\) values around \(1/2\), where the solutions exist for almost all values of \(d\), and on the other hand for a countable infinite number of values for \(d\) the stationary solutions exist only for \(a=1/2\).
