Criterion for existence of non-monotone wavefronts in the delayed KPP-Fisher equation

Let Dn\mathfrak{D}_{n} denote the set of parameter pairs (τ,c)R+2(\tau,c)\in\mathbb{R}_+^2 for which equation (17) admits a non-monotone wavefront, and let c(τ)c^*(\tau) and c(τ)c^\star(\tau) be the lower and upper critical speeds defined in the paper. Existence criterion.

Dn={(τ,c)R+2:c(τ)<cc(τ)}.\mathfrak{D}_{n}=\{(\tau,c)\in\mathbb{R}_+^2:c^*(\tau)<c\leq c^\star(\tau)\}.

The preceding results establish inclusions and existence in substantial parameter regions, but do not prove this full characterization; the equality is proposed as the natural criterion for existence of non-monotone wavefronts.
