The minimal wave speed to the Lotka-Volterra competition model. (English) Zbl 1436.35064

Summary: This paper focuses on selection mechanisms of the minimal speed of traveling waves to the Lotka-Volterra reaction-diffusion model. We first establish general conditions for the linear and nonlinear selection by way of an upper and lower solution method. Then some explicit criteria are derived by subtly constructing formulas of upper and lower solutions. The obtained conditions substantially improve or complement the corresponding results in the known references.
