This article studies the minimal wave speed of traveling wave solutions in an integrodifference predator-prey system that does not have the comparison principle. By constructing generalized upper and lower solutions and utilizing the theory of asymptotic spreading, we show the minimal wave speed of traveling wave solutions modeling the invasion process of two species by presenting the existence and nonexistence of nonconstant traveling wave solutions with any wave speeds.

This paper is concerned with the minimal wave speed of traveling wave solutions in a predator-prey system with distributed time delay, which does not satisfy comparison principle due to delayed intraspecific terms. By constructing upper and lower solutions, we obtain the existence of traveling wave solutions when the wave speed is the minimal wave speed. Our results complete the known conclusions and show the precisely asymptotic behavior of traveling wave solutions.

This paper studies the minimal wave speed of traveling wave solutions in predator–prey models, in which there are several groups of predators that compete among different groups. We investigate the existence and nonexistence of traveling wave solutions modeling the invasion of predators and coexistence of these species. When the positive solution of the corresponding kinetic system converges to the unique positive steady state, a threshold that is the minimal wave speed of traveling wave solutions is obtained. To finish the proof, we construct contracting rectangles and upper–lower solutions and apply the asymptotic spreading theory of scalar equations. Moreover, multiple propagation thresholds in the corresponding initial value problem are presented by numerical examples, and one threshold may be the minimal wave speed of traveling wave solutions.

We investigate the traveling wave solutions of a competitive integrodifference system without comparison principle. In the earlier conclusions, a threshold of wave speed is defined while the existence or nonexistence of traveling wave solutions remains open when the wave speed is the threshold. By constructing generalized upper and lower solutions, we confirm the existence of traveling wave solutions when the wave speed is the threshold. Our conclusion completes the known results and shows the different decay behavior of traveling wave solutions compared with the case of large wave speeds.

This paper is concerned with the minimal wave speed of traveling wave solutions of a discrete competitive system with Lotka–Volterra type nonlinearity. By constructing upper and lower solutions, we confirm the existence of traveling wave solutions if the wave speed is the minimal wave speed. Our results complete the earlier conclusions.

This paper deals with the minimal wave speed of delayed lattice dynamical systems without monotonicity in the sense of standard partial ordering in R2. By constructing upper and lower solutions appealing to the exponential ordering, we prove the existence of traveling wave solutions if the wave speed is not smaller than some threshold. The nonexistence of traveling wave solutions is obtained when the wave speed is smaller than the threshold. Therefore, we confirm the threshold is the minimal wave speed, which completes the known results.

We investigate the traveling wave solutions in a reaction-diffusion epidemic model. The existence of the wave solutions is derived through monotone iteration of a pair of classical upper and lower solutions. The traveling wave solutions are shown to be unique and strictly monotonic. Furthermore, we determine the critical minimal wave speed.

This paper is concerned with the minimal wave speed in a diffusive epidemic model with nonlocal delays. We define a threshold. By presenting the existence and the nonexistence of traveling wave solutions for all positive wave speed, we confirm that the threshold is the minimal wave speed of traveling wave solutions, which models that the infective invades the habitat of the susceptible. For some cases, it is proven that spatial nonlocality may increase the propagation threshold while time delay decreases the threshold.

Based on Codeço’s cholera model (2001), an epidemic cholera model that incorporates the pathogen diffusion and disease-related death is proposed. The formula for minimal wave speedc∗is given. To prove the existence of traveling wave solutions, an invariant cone is constructed by upper and lower solutions and Schauder’s fixed point theorem is applied. The nonexistence of traveling wave solutions is proved by two-sided Laplace transform. However, to apply two-sided Laplace transform, the prior estimate of exponential decrease of traveling wave solutions is needed. For this aim, a new method is proposed, which can be applied to reaction-diffusion systems consisting of more than three equations.

This paper is concerned with the minimal wave speed of nonconstant traveling wave solutions in an HIV-1 virus integrodifference system. Here, the traveling wave solution models the spatial spreading process of infected cells and virus. When the basic reproduction ratio of the corresponding ordinary differential system or difference system is larger than one, we establish the existence of nonconstant traveling wave solutions if the wave speed is not less than a threshold, and if the speed is smaller than the threshold, we prove the nonexistence of nonconstant traveling wave solutions. Moreover, when the basic reproduction ratio of the corresponding ordinary differential system or difference system is not larger than one, we also confirm the nonexistence of nonconstant traveling wave solutions.
