Abstract: We consider Reaction-Diffusion systems on $mathbbR$, and prove diffusive mixing of asymptotic states $u_0(kx-ph{i}_{pm},k)$, where $u_0$ is a periodic wave. Our analysis is the first to treat arbitrarily large phase-offsets $ph{i}_d=ph{i}_{+}-ph{i}_{-}$, so long as this offset proceeds in a sufficiently regular manner. The offset $ph{i}_d$ completely determines the size of the asymptotic profiles, placing our analysis in the large data setting. In addition, the present result is a global stability result, in the sense that the class of initial data considered are not near the asymptotic profile in any sense. We prove global existence, decay, and asymptotic self-similarity of the associated wavenumber equation. We develop a functional framework to handle the linearized operator around large Burgers profiles via the exact integrability of the underlying Burgers flow. This framework enables us to prove a crucial, new mean-zero coercivity estimate, which we then combine with a nonlinear energy method.
