In a spiked population model, the population covariance matrix has all its eigenvalues equal to units except for a few fixed eigenvalues (spikes). Determining the number of spikes is a fundamental problem which appears in many scientific…

The coupling between population growth and transport accessibility has been an elusive problem for more than 60 years now. Due to the lack of theoretical foundations, most of the studies that considered how the evolution of transportation…
We study a non-local parabolic Lotka-Volterra type equation describing a population structured by a space variable x 2 Rd and a phenotypical trait 2 . Considering diffusion, mutations and space-local competition between the individuals, we…
In this paper, we study the asymptotic (large time) behavior of a selection-mutation-competition model for a population structured with respect to a phenotypic trait, when the rate of mutation is very small. We assume that the reproduction…

In two and three dimensions, we analyze a finite element method to approximate the solutions of an eigenvalue problem arising from neutron transport. We derive the eigenvalue problem of interest, which results to be non-symmetric. Under a…
We consider an elliptic operator in which the second-order term is very small in one direction. In this regime, we study the behaviour of the principal eigenfunction and of the principal eigenvalue. Our first result deals with the limit of…

An epidemic model, where the dispersal is approximated by nonlocal diffusion operator and spatial domain has one ?xed boundary and one free boundary, is considered in this paper. Firstly, using some elementary analysis instead of…
Linear rate equations are used to describe the cascading decay of an initial heavy cluster into fragments. This representation is based upon a triangular matrix of transition rates. We expand the state vector of mass multiplicities, which…
