| contents | Protest activity, a constitutionally protected right in the United States under the First Amendment, serves as a key tool for individuals with limited individual influence to unite collectively and amplify their impact. Despite its legal recognition, the historical interaction between the government and protesters has been complex. In this study, we extend a model proposed in arXiv:1502.04725 [math.AP] to incorporate the influence of protest management strategies. Our research establishes the existence and stability of traveling wave solutions, supported by both theoretical analyses and numerical simulations. We delve into the impact of two distinct protest management approaches on the qualitative and semi-quantitative characteristics of these traveling waves. These metrics can aid in categorizing different types of protests. |
