Published: November 2007

We give an explicit formula for the change of speed of pushed and bistable fronts of the reaction-diffusion equation when a small cutoff is applied to the reaction term at the unstable or metastable equilibrium point. The results are valid for arbitrary reaction terms and include the case of density-dependent diffusion.
