摘要：
本文研究了在时间周期性细胞流中，当扩散系数ε远小于1时，Kolmogorov-Petrovsky-Piskunov（KPP）前沿的最小速度c*。通过变分原理，将计算转化为在周期域上线性对流-扩散算子的主特征值问题。为高效求解大时间下的对流主导时间依赖特征值问题，采用有限元和谱方法结合快速求解器加速计算。与稳态细胞流中c*=O(ε^{1/4})的标度不同，在时间周期性细胞流中，由于混沌流线的存在，揭示了c*=O(1)的新关系。残差传播速度源于Lagrangian混沌，被量化为亚扩散过程。
英文摘要：
The minimal speeds ($c^*$) of the Kolmogorov-Petrovsky-Piskunov (KPP) fronts at small diffusion ($ε\ll 1$) in a class of time-periodic cellular flows with chaotic streamlines is investigated in this paper. The variational principle of $c^*$ reduces the computation to that of a principal eigenvalue problem on a periodic domain of a linear advection-diffusion operator with space-time periodic coefficients and small diffusion. To solve the advection dominated time-dependent eigenvalue problem efficiently over large time, a combination of finite element and spectral methods, as well as the associated fast solvers, are utilized to accelerate computation. In contrast to the scaling $c^*=\mathcal{O}(ε^{1/4})$ in steady cellular flows, a new relation $c^* = \mathcal{O}(1)$ as $ε\ll 1$ is revealed in the time-periodic cellular flows due to the presence of chaotic streamlines. Residual propagation speed emerges from the Lagrangian chaos which is quantified as a sub-diffusion process.
