We consider the damped wave equation $\alpha u_{tt}+u_t=u_{xx}-V^{\text{'}}\left(u\right)$ on the whole real line, where $V$ is a bistable potential. This equation has travelling front solutions of the form $u(x,t)=h(x-st)$ which describe a moving interface between two different steady states of the system, one of which being the global minimum of $V$. We show that, if the initial data are sufficiently close to the profile of a front for large $\left|x\right|$, the solution of the damped wave equation converges uniformly on $ℝ$ to a travelling front as $t\to +\infty$. The proof of this global stability...

We discuss a general framework of monotone skew-product semiflows under a connected group action. In a prior work, a compact connected group $G$-action has been considered on a strongly monotone skew-product semiflow. Here we relax the strong monotonicity and compactness requirements, and establish a theory concerning symmetry or monotonicity properties of uniformly stable 1-cover minimal sets. We then apply this theory to show rotational symmetry of certain stable entire solutions for a class of...
