Bifurcation to locked fronts in two component reaction-diffusion systems
Résumé
We study invasion fronts and spreading speeds in two component reaction-diffusion systems. Using Lin's method, we construct traveling front solutions and show the existence of a bifurcation to locked fronts where both components invade at the same speed. Expansions of the wave speed as a function of the diffusion constant of one species are obtained. The bifurcation can be sub or super-critical depending on whether the locked fronts exist for parameter values above or below the bifurcation value. Interestingly, in the sub-critical case the spreading speed of the system does not depend continuously on the coefficient of diffusion.
