Speed selection and stability of wavefronts for delayed monostable reaction-diffusion equations

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: We study the asymptotic stability of traveling fronts and front's velocity selection problem for the time-delayed monostable equation (∗) ut(t,x)=uxx(t,x)−u(t,x)+g(u(t−h,x)),xinmathbbR,t>0, considered with Lipschitz continuous reaction term g:mathbbR+omathbbR+. We are also assuming that g is C1,alpha-smooth in some neighbourhood of the equilibria 0 and kappa>0 to (∗). In difference with the previous works, we do not impose any convexity or subtangency condition on the graph of g so that equation (∗) can possess pushed traveling fronts. Our first main result says that the non-critical wavefronts of (∗) with monotone g are globally nonlinearly stable. In the special and easier case when the Lipschitz constant for g coincides with g′(0), we present a series of results concerning the exponential [asymptotic] stability of non-critical [respectively, critical] fronts for the monostable model (∗). As an application, we present a criterion of the absolute global stability of non-critical wavefronts to the diffusive Nicholson's blowflies equation.
