Description
This volume contains a wealth of results and methodologies applicable to a wide range of problems arising in reaction-diffusion theory. It can be viewed both as a handbook, and as a detailed description of the methodology. The authors present new methods based on matched asymptotic expansions. 1) Fisher Nonlinearity: Initial Data with Exponential Decay Rates or Compact Support.- 4 mth-Order (m > 1) Fisher Nonlinearity: Initial Data with Algebraic Decay Rates.- 5 Extension to Systems of Fisher-Kolmogorov Equations.
