Travelling Patterns on Discrete Media

Abstract

This thesis describes how complex and real-world relevant

analytical solutions can be found starting from a simple Nagumo problem posed

on one or two-dimensional lattices.

In Chapters 2 and 3 we will discuss solutions with periodic asymptotic values, where different types of fronts can be combined. In Chapter 4 we will discuss the existence of planar defect solutions, where we analyse travelling fronts possessing corners.
