We consider a diffusion on a bounded domain, assuming that the system is irreducible inside the domain and that the diffusion has varying degree of degeneracy on the domain's boundary. The long-term statistical properties of typical…
In this work we establish conditions which guarantee the existence of (strictly) positive steady states of a nonlinear structured population model. In our framework the steady state formulation amounts to recasting the nonlinear problem as…
We introduce a novel approach of epidemic modeling by combining age-structured models with damped wave equations. This transforms the parabolic-type reaction-diffusion model into a hyperbolic system that shares many properties with a wave…
The time-elapsed model for neural networks is a nonlinear age structured equationwhere the renewal term describes the network activity and influences the dischargerate, possibly with a delay due to the length of connections.We solve a long…
We study the nonequilibrium aging dynamics in a system of quasi-hard spheres at large density by means of computer simulations. We find that, after a sudden quench to large density, the relaxation time initially increases exponentially with…
We consider an epidemic model with nonlocal diffusion and free boundaries, which describes the evolution of an infectious agents with nonlocal diffusion and the infected humans without diffusion, where humans get infected by the agents, and…
We study a system of fully nonlinear elliptic equations, depending on a small parameter $\eps$, that models long-range segregation of populations. The diffusion is governed by the negative Pucci operator. In the linear case, this system was…
We investigate singularly perturbed elliptic problems with multiplicative nonlocal diffusion terms subject to Robin boundary conditions. The diffusion depends on a global quantity of the solution, which introduces a nonlocal coupling…
This article is a presentation of specific recent results describing scaling limits of individual-based models. Thanks to them, we wish to relate the time-scales typical of demographic dynamics and natural selection to the parameters of the…
A system of two cubic reaction-diffusion equations for two independent gene frequencies arising in population dynamics is studied. Depending on values of coefficients, all possible Lie and $Q$-conditional (nonclassical) symmetries are…
We investigate positive steady states of an indefinite superlinear reaction-diffusion equation arising from population dynamics, coupled with a nonlinear boundary condition. Both the equation and the boundary condition depend upon a…
In this work we suggest a simple mathematical model for the dynamics of the population of children and adolescents without problematic behavior (criminal activities etc.). This model represents a typical population growth equation but with…
We study a chemotaxis-consumption mechanism, in which some chemical signal and cells density interact each other. In order to control the concentration of such a population, sources involving gradient nonlinearities, which introduce a…
In this paper, we study a free boundary problem for a class of nonlinear nonautonomous size structured population model. Using the comparison principle and upper lower solution methods, we establish the existence of the solution for such…
The gradual accumulation of damage and dysregulation during the aging of living organisms can be quantified. Even so, the aging process is complex and has multiple interacting physiological scales -- from the molecular to cellular to whole…
We consider a nonlocal aggregation equation with nonlinear diffusion which arises from the study of biological aggregation dynamics. As a degenerate parabolic problem, we prove the well-posedness, continuation criteria and smoothness of…
Age structure is incorporated in many types of epidemic model. Often it is convenient to assume that such models converge to early asymptotic behaviour quickly, before the susceptible population has been appreciably depleted. We make use of…
We study the asymptotic diffusion processes with (generally nonlocal) open boundaries in one dimension which are exactly solvable by means of the recently developed recursion formula. We investigate the stationary states, which cannot be…
We prove the existence of solutions to a non-linear, non-local, degenerate equation which was previously derived as the formal hydrodynamic limit of an active Brownian particle system, where the particles are endowed with a position and an…
The mean-field dynamics of a particle in a random, but short range correlated potential, offers the opportunity of observing both aging and driven stationary regimes. Using a geometrical approach previously introduced by the author, we…
