Traveling waves for delayed non-local diffusion equations with crossing-monostability (Q609280)

The authors prove the existence of a traveling wave for a delayed non-local diffusion equation with crossing-monostability of the following type: \[ \partial_tu(x,t)=\int_{\mathbb{R}} J(x-y)(u(y,t)-u(x,t))\,dy-l(u(x,t))+f((g\ast u)(x,t)),\quad x\in \mathbb{R},\,t>0,\tag{1} \] for suitable functions \(f,g,l\) and \(J\). The methods are based on an approach first developed by \textit{S. Ma} [J. Differ. Equations 237, No.~2, 259--277 (2007; Zbl 1114.34061)] and Schauder's fixed point theorem. This result implies that the traveling waves of \((1)\) with crossing-monostability are persistent for all values of the delay.
