Abstract

 

 

In this thesis we investigate the existence of travelling waves solution for certain non local wave equations. Stefanov and Kevrekidis in their series of publications use the bell-shapedness property of the triangular kernel to study the existence and nature of a travelling wave solution in generalized lattices. In this thesis, we first studied their work, and then generalized the idea to certain class of kernels that satisfy some conditions
