Enhanced (hydrodynamic) transport induced by population growth in reaction-diffusion systems with application to population genetics.

Abstract excerpt

We consider a system made up of different physical, chemical, or biological species undergoing replication, transformation, and disappearance processes, as well as slow diffusive motion. We show that for systems with net growth the balance between kinetics and the diffusion process may lead to fast, enhanced hydrodynamic transport. Solitary waves in the system, if they exist, stabilize the enhanced transport,...
