Abstract: We consider the accelerated propagation of solutions to equations with a nonlocal linear dispersion on the real line and monostable nonlinearities (both local or nonlocal, however, not degenerated at $0$), in the case when either of the dispersion kernel or the initial condition has regularly heavy tails at both $\pm\infty$, perhaps different. We show that, in such case, the propagation in the right direction is fully determined by the right tails of either the kernel or the initial condition. We describe both cases of integrable and monotone initial conditions which may give different orders of the acceleration. Our approach is based, in particular, on the extension of the theory of sub-exponential distributions, which we introduced early in [D. Finkelshtein, P. Tkachov. 'Kesten's bound for sub-exponential densities on the real line and its multi-dimensional analogues', Advances in Applied Probability, 2018, 50(2), 373-395].
