We consider general reaction diffusion systems posed on rectangular lattices in two or more spatial dimensions. We show that travelling wave solutions to such systems that propagate in rational directions are nonlinearly stable under small perturbations. We employ recently developed techniques involving point-wise Greens functions estimates for functional differential equations of mixed type (MFDEs), allowing our results to be applied even in situations where comparison principles are not available.

This article concerns a class of beam equations with damping on rectangular tori. When the generators satisfy certain relationship, by excluding some value of two model parameters, we prove that such models admit small amplitude quasi-periodic travelling wave solutions with two frequencies, which are continuations of two rotating wave solutions with one frequency. This result holds not only for an isotropic torus, but also for an anisotropic torus. The proof is mainly based on a Lyapunov--Schmidt reduction together with the implicit function theorem.
The purpose of this paper is to provide a rigorous mathematical proof of the existence of travelling wave solutions to the Gross-Pitaevskii equation in dimensions two and three. Our arguments, based on minimization under constraints, yield a full branch of solutions, and extend earlier results, where only a part of the branch was built. In dimension three, we also show that there are no travelling wave solutions of small energy.
While there is a long history of employing moving boundary problems in physics, in particular via Stefan problems for heat conduction accompanied by a change of phase, more recently such approaches have been adapted to study biological invasion. For example, when a logistic growth term is added to the governing partial differential equation in a Stefan problem, one arrives at the Fisher-Stefan model, a generalisation of the well-known Fisher-KPP model, characterised by a leakage coefficient $kappa$ which relates the speed of the moving boundary to the flux of population there. This Fisher-Stefan model overcomes one of the well-known limitations of the Fisher-KPP model, since time-dependent solutions of the Fisher-Stefan model involve a well-defined front with compact support which is more natural in terms of mathematical modelling. Almost all of the existing analysis of the standard Fisher-Stefan model involves setting $kappa > 0$, which can lead to either invading travelling wave solutions or complete extinction of the population. Here, we demonstrate how setting $kappa < 0$ leads to retreating travelling waves and an interesting transition to finite-time blow-up. For certain initial conditions, population extinction is also observed. Our approach involves studying time-dependent solutions of the governing equations, phase plane and scaling analysis, leading to new insight into the possibilities of travelling waves, blow-up and extinction for this moving boundary problem. Matlab software used to generate the results in this work are available on Github.
We are concerned with the stability of multidimensional (M-D) transonic shocks in steady supersonic flow past multidimensional wedges. One of our motivations is that the global stability issue for the M-D case is much more sensitive than that for the 2-D case, which requires more careful rigorous mathematical analysis. In this paper, we develop a nonlinear approach and employ it to establish the stability of weak shock solutions containing a transonic shock-front for potential flow with respect to the M-D perturbation of the wedge boundary in appropriate function spaces. To achieve this, we first formulate the stability problem as a free boundary problem for nonlinear elliptic equations. Then we introduce the partial hodograph transformation to reduce the free boundary problem into a fixed boundary value problem near a background solution with fully nonlinear boundary conditions for second-order nonlinear elliptic equations in an unbounded domain. To solve this reduced problem, we linearize the nonlinear problem on the background shock solution and then, after solving this linearized elliptic problem, develop a nonlinear iteration scheme that is proved to be contractive.
We study the planar front solution for a class of reaction diffusion equations in multidimensional space in the case when the essential spectrum of the linearization in the direction of the front touches the imaginary axis. At the linear level, the spectrum is stabilized by using an exponential weight. A-priori estimates for the nonlinear terms of the equation governing the evolution of the perturbations of the front are obtained when perturbations belong to the intersection of the exponentially weighted space with the original space without a weight. These estimates are then used to show that in the original norm, initially small perturbations to the front remain bounded, while in the exponentially weighted norm, they algebraically decay in time.
