Abstract
We consider a scalar reaction-diffusion equation in one spatial dimension with bistable nonlinearity and a nonlocal space-fractional diffusion operator of Riesz-Feller type. We present our analytical results on the existence, uniqueness (up to translations) and stability of a traveling wave solution connecting two stable homogeneous steady states. Moreover, we review numerical methods for the case of reaction-diffusion equations with fractional Laplacian and discuss possible extensions to our reaction-diffusion equations with Riesz-Feller operators. In particular, we present a direct method using integral operator discretization in combination with projection boundary conditions to visualize our analytical results about traveling waves.
