Sharp profiles in models of collective movements

We consider a parabolic partial differential equation that can be understood as a simple model for crowds flows. Our main assumption is that the diffusivity and the source/sink term vanish at the same point; the nonhomogeneous term is different from zero at any other point and so the equation is not monostable. We investigate the existence, regularity and monotone properties of semi-wavefront solutions as well as their convergence to wavefront solutions.
