Abstract
This paper is concerned with the convergence to sharp traveling waves of solutions with semi-compactly supported initial data for Burgers-Fisher-KPP equations with degenerate diffusion. We characterize the motion of the free boundary in the long-time asymptotic of the solution to Cauchy problem and the convergence to sharp traveling wave with almost exponential decay rates. Here a key difficulty lies in the intrinsic presence of nonlinear advection effect. After providing the analysis of the nonlinear advection effect on the asymptotic propagation speed of the free boundary, we construct sub- and super-solutions with semi-compact supports to estimate the motion of the free boundary. The new method overcomes the difficulties of the non-integrability of the generalized derivatives of sharp traveling waves at the free boundary.
期刊介绍:
The mission of the Journal of Nonlinear Science is to publish papers that augment the fundamental ways we describe, model, and predict nonlinear phenomena. Papers should make an original contribution to at least one technical area and should in addition illuminate issues beyond that area''s boundaries. Even excellent papers in a narrow field of interest are not appropriate for the journal. Papers can be oriented toward theory, experimentation, algorithms, numerical simulations, or applications as long as the work is creative and sound. Excessively theoretical work in which the application to natural phenomena is not apparent (at least through similar techniques) or in which the development of fundamental methodologies is not present is probably not appropriate. In turn, papers oriented toward experimentation, numerical simulations, or applications must not simply report results without an indication of what a theoretical explanation might be.
All papers should be submitted in English and must meet common standards of usage and grammar. In addition, because ours is a multidisciplinary subject, at minimum the introduction to the paper should be readable to a broad range of scientists and not only to specialists in the subject area. The scientific importance of the paper and its conclusions should be made clear in the introduction-this means that not only should the problem you study be presented, but its historical background, its relevance to science and technology, the specific phenomena it can be used to describe or investigate, and the outstanding open issues related to it should be explained. Failure to achieve this could disqualify the paper.
