Existence of traveling wave solutions in a diffusive predator-prey model

 We establish the existence of traveling front solutions and small amplitude traveling wave train solutions for a reaction-diffusion system based on a predator-prey model with Holling type-II functional response. The traveling front solutions are equivalent to heteroclinic orbits in R ⁴ and the small amplitude traveling wave train solutions are equivalent to small amplitude periodic orbits in R ⁴ . The methods used to prove the results are the shooting argument and the Hopf bifurcation theorem.

Neutral Genetic Patterns for Expanding Populations with Nonoverlapping Generations

We investigate the inside dynamics of solutions to integrodifference equations to understand the genetic consequences of a population with nonoverlapping generations undergoing range expansion. To obtain the inside dynamics, we decompose the solution into neutral genetic components. The inside dynamics are given by the spatiotemporal evolution of the neutral genetic components. We consider thin-tailed dispersal kernels and a variety of per capita growth rate functions to classify the traveling wave solutions as either pushed or pulled fronts. We find that pulled fronts are synonymous with the founder effect in population genetics. Adding overcompensation to the dynamics of these fronts has no impact on genetic diversity in the expanding population. However, growth functions with a strong Allee effect cause the traveling wave solution to be a pushed front preserving the genetic variation in the population. In this case, the contribution of each neutral fraction can be computed by a simple formula dependent on the initial distribution of the neutral fractions, the traveling wave solution, and the asymptotic spreading speed.

Wave propagation in discrete media

 We have considered infinite systems of nonlinear ODEs on the one-dimensional integer lattice which describes the activity in an excitatorily coupled network of excitable cells. For an ideal nonlinearity, we calculated the speed of propagation of an activity and derived the condition for its existence. We also studied the existence and stability of the traveling wave solution and gave, in the simplest case, its explicit expression. We established that some unstable traveling waves lead to propagation with an enlarging profile defined by a front velocity and a wake velocity. We generalized some results to inhomogeneous medium and network with long range connections. Received: 3 July 2000 / Revised version: 17 April 2001 / Published online: 7 December 2001     

A Traveling Wave Model for Invasion by Precursor and Differentiated Cells

We develop and investigate a continuum model for invasion of a domain by cells that migrate, proliferate and differentiate. The model is applicable to neural crest cell invasion in the developing enteric nervous system, but is presented in general terms and is of broader applicability. Two cell populations are identified and modeled explicitly; a population of precursor cells that migrate and proliferate, and a population of differentiated cells derived from the precursors which have impaired migration and proliferation. The equation describing the precursor cells is based on Fisher’s equation with the addition of a carrying-capacity limited differentiation term. Two variations of the proliferation term are considered and compared. For most parameter values, the model admits a traveling wave solution for each population, both traveling at the same speed. The traveling wave solutions are investigated using perturbation analysis, phase plane methods, and numerical techniques. Analytical and numerical results suggest the existence of two wavespeed selection regimes. Regions of the parameter space are characterized according to existence, shape, and speed of traveling wave solutions. Our observations may be used in conjunction with experimental results to identify key parameters determining the invasion speed for a particular biological system. Furthermore, our results may assist experimentalists in identifying the resource that is limiting proliferation of precursor cells.     

Neural fields with fast learning dynamic kernel

We introduce a modified-firing-rate model based on Hebbian-type changing synaptic connections. The existence and stability of solutions such as rest state, bumps, and traveling waves are shown for this type of model. Three types of kernels, namely exponential, Mexican hat, and periodic synaptic connections, are considered. In the former two cases, the existence of a rest state solution is proved and the conditions for their stability are found. Bump solutions are shown for two kinds of synaptic kernels, and their stability is investigated by constructing a corresponding Evans function that holds for a specific range of values of the kernel coefficient strength (KCS). Applying a similar method, we consider exponential synaptic connections, where traveling wave solutions are shown to exist. Simulation and numerical analysis are presented for all these cases to illustrate the resulting solutions and their stability.
