Existence and stability of curved fronts for spatially periodic combustion reaction-diffusion equations in $\mathbb{R}^N$

Abstract

This paper is concerned with curved fronts of combustion reaction-diffusion equations in spatially periodic media in $\mathbb{R}^N$ $(N\geq2)$. Under the assumption that there are moving pulsating fronts for any given propagation direction $e \in \mathbb{S}^{N-1}$, and by constructing suitable super- and sub-solutions, we prove the existence of a curved front with polytope-like shape in $\mathbb{R}^N$. Then we show that the curved front is unique and asymptotically stable.
