We show that the speed of propagation is exponential in time, with a precise exponent depending on a periodic principal eigenvalue, and that it does not depend on the space direction. This is in contrast with the Freidlin-G\\\"artner formula for the standard Laplacian.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2012-09-21T13:03:50.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "35K57" ], "keywords": [ "fisher-kpp type equations", "fractional diffusion", "periodic media", "propagation", "time asymptotic location" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 7, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2012arXiv1209.4809C" } } }
