This paper deals with the question of the description of the set of solutions \(u(x,t)\), defined for all time, of the Fisher-KPP equation \[ u_t= \Delta u+f(u), \quad 0<u(x,t) <1,\quad x\in\mathbb{R}^N,\;t\in\mathbb{R}. \tag{1} \] The authors are interested in solutions that are defined for all time and for all points \(x\in\mathbb{R}^N\), which they call ``entire''. Under some natural conditions on \(f\), they prove the existence of an infinite-dimensional manifold of solutions. In particular, there are infinite-dimensional manifolds of (nonplanar) travelling fronts and radial solutions. Moreover they show that a given solution can be represented in terms of such a mixing of travelling fronts.
