Fisher–Kolmogorov equation

Not to be confused with the Fisher's equation.
Ronald Fisher
Andrey Kolmogorov

Fisher–Kolmogorov equation named after Ronald Fisher and Andrey Kolmogorov, the former contributing Fisher's equation and the latter also publishing in 1937,[1] is a nonlinear reaction-diffusion equation of the form[2][3]

The Fisher–Kolmogorov equation like many reaction-diffusion has an important application in biology as well as in chemistry.
