Asymptotic speed of spreading in a delay lattice differential equation without quasimonotonicity

Fuzhen Wu

Abstract:
This article concerns the asymptotic speed of spreading in a delay lattice differential equation without quasimonotonicity. We obtain the speed of spreading by constructing an auxiliary undelayed equation, whose speed of spreading is the same as that of the original equation. The minimal wave speed of bounded positive traveling wave solutions is obtained from the asymptotic spreading.
