Abstract

We study the existence of self-similar profiles for diffusion equations and reaction-diffusion systems on the real line, where different nontrivial limits are imposed at both sides of infinity. The theses profiles solve a coupled system of nonlinear ODEs that can be treated by monotone operator theory.
