Description
We consider the dynamics of the decay of an unstable brane in light-cone time. The equation that describes an inhomogeneous decay turns out to be a variant of the so called Fisher equation, a non-linear partial differential equation, that appears in many other areas. We will discuss the possibility of extending the solution to a solution of the equation of motion of (open) string field theory.
