Positive solutions of a logistic equation on unbounded intervals

In this paper, we study the existence of positive solutions of a one-parameter family of logistic equations on R+ or on R. These equations are stationary versions of the Fisher equations and the KPP equations. We also study the blow up region of a sequence of the solutions when the parameter approac...

Description
Summary:In this paper, we study the existence of positive solutions of a one-parameter family of logistic equations on R+ or on R. These equations are stationary versions of the Fisher equations and the KPP equations. We also study the blow up region of a sequence of the solutions when the parameter approachs a critical value and the nonexistence of positive solutions beyond the critical value. We use the direct method and the sub and super solution method.
