We establish rigorous upper and lower bounds for the speed of pulled fronts with a cutoff. We show that the Brunet-Derrida formula corresponds to the leading order expansion in the cut-off parameter of both the upper and lower bounds. For sufficiently large cut-off parameter the Brunet-Derrida formula lies outside the allowed band determined from the bounds. If nonlinearities are neglected the upper and lower bounds coincide and are the exact linear speed for all values of the cut-off parameter.

We study the effect of a cut-off on the speed of pulled fronts of the one dimensional reaction diffusion equation. We prove rigorous upper and lower bounds on the speed in terms of the cut-off parameter epsilon. From these bounds we estimate the rang
e of validity of the Brunet--Derrida formula for a general class of reaction terms.
We introduce particle systems in one or more dimensions in which particles perform branching Brownian motion and the population size is kept constant equal to $N > 1$, through the following selection mechanism: at all times only the $N$ fittest parti
cles survive, while all the other particles are removed. Fitness is measured with respect to some given score function $s:R^d to R$. For some choices of the function $s$, it is proved that the cloud of particles travels at positive speed in some possibly random direction. In the case where $s$ is linear, we show under some assumptions on the initial configuration that the shape of the cloud scales like $log N$ in the direction parallel to motion but at least $c(log N)^{3/2}$ in the orthogonal direction for some $c > 0$. We conjecture that the exponent 3/2 is sharp. This result is equivalent to the following result of independent interest: in one-dimensional systems, the genealogical time is greater than $c(log N)^3$, thereby contributing a step towards the original predictions of Brunet and Derrida. We discuss several open problems and also explain how our results can be viewed as a rigorous justification of Weismanns arguments for the role of recombination in population genetics.
We give an explicit formula for the change of speed of pushed and bistable fronts of the reaction diffusion equation when a small cutoff is applied at the unstable or metastable equilibrium point. The results are valid for arbitrary reaction terms and include the case of density dependent diffusion.
We study the change in the speed of pushed and bistable fronts of the reaction diffusion equation in the presence of a small cut-off. We give explicit formulas for the shift in the speed for arbitrary reaction terms f(u). The dependence of the speed
shift on the cut-off parameter is a function of the front speed and profile in the absence of the cut-off. In order to determine the speed shift we solve the leading order approximation to the front profile u(z) in the neighborhood of the leading edge and use a variational principle for the speed. We apply the general formula to the Nagumo equation and recover the results which have been obtained recently by geometric analysis. The formulas given are of general validity and we also apply them to a class of reaction terms which have not been considered elsewhere.
We study the minimal speed of propagating fronts of convection reaction diffusion equations of the form $u_t + mu phi(u) u_x = u_{xx} +f(u)$ for positive reaction terms with $f(0 >0$. The function $phi(u)$ is continuous and vanishes at $u=0$. A varia
tional principle for the minimal speed of the waves is constructed from which upper and lower bounds are obtained. This permits the a priori assesment of the effect of the convective term on the minimal speed of the traveling fronts. If the convective term is not strong enough, it produces no effect on the minimal speed of the fronts. We show that if $f(u)/sqrt{f(0)} + mu phi(u) < 0$, then the minimal speed is given by the linear value $2 sqrt{f(0)}$, and the convective term has no effect on the minimal speed. The results are illustrated by applying them to the exactly solvable case $u_t + mu u u_x = u_{xx} + u (1 -u)$. Results are also given for the density dependent diffusion case $u_t + mu phi(u) u_x = (D(u)u_x)_x +f(u)$.
