Abstract

This article is concerned with a free boundary problem for semilinear parabolic equations, which describes the habitat segregation phenomenon in population ecology. The main purpose is to show the global existence, uniqueness, regularity and asymptotic behavior of solutions for the problem. The asymptotic stability or instability of each solution is completely determined using the comparison theorem.
