Abstract

In this paper, we study a new class of time-periodic solutions with interior transition layer of reaction-advection-diffusion equations in the case of a fast reaction and a small diffusion. We consider the case of discontinuous sources (i.e., the nonlinearity describing the interaction and reaction) for a certain value of the unknown function that arise in a number of relevant applications. An existence theorem is proved, asymptotic approximations are constructed, and the asymptotic Lyapunov stability of such solutions as solutions of the corresponding initial-boundary-value problems is established.
