Abstract: We consider a reaction-diffusion equation with a half-Laplacian. In the case where the solution is independent on time, the model reduces to the Peierls-Nabarro model describing dislocations as transition layers in a phase field setting. We introduce a suitable rescaling of the evolution equation, using a small parameter $varepsilon$. As $varepsilon$ goes to zero, we show that the limit dynamics is characterized by a system of ODEs describing the motion of particles with two-body interactions. The interaction forces are in $1/x$ and correspond to the well-known interaction between dislocations.
