The system arises in population dynamics and epidemiology. Travelling-wave solutions satisfy a three-dimensional system about (u, uprime, nu), whose equilibria lie on the u-axis. Our main result shows that, given any wave speed c > 0, the unstable manifold at any point (a, 0, 0) on the u-axis, where a isin (0, gamma) and gamma is a positive number, provides a travelling-wave solution connecting another point (b, 0, 0) on the u-axis, where b := b(a) isin (gamma, infin), and furthermore, b(·) : (0, gamma) rarr (gamma, infin) is continuous and bijective.", pages = "663-676(14)", url = "http://www.ingentaconnect.com/content/rse/proca/2005/00000135/00000004/art00001" }
