Travelling wave solutions in a negative nonlinear diffusion–reaction model

We use a geometric approach to prove the existence of smooth travelling wave solutions of a nonlinear diffusion–reaction equation with logistic kinetics and a convex nonlinear diffusivity function which changes sign twice in our domain of interest. We determine the minimum wave speed, [Formula: see...

description We use a geometric approach to prove the existence of smooth travelling wave solutions of a nonlinear diffusion–reaction equation with logistic kinetics and a convex nonlinear diffusivity function which changes sign twice in our domain of interest. We determine the minimum wave speed, [Formula: see text] , and investigate its relation to the spectral stability of a desingularised linear operator associated with the travelling wave solutions.
