We study the long time behavior of a parabolic Lotka-Volterra type equation considering a time-periodic growth rate with non-local competition. Such equation describes the dynamics of a phenotypically struc-tured population under the effect…

Coevolving and competing species or game-theoretic strategies exhibit rich and complex dynamics for which a general theoretical framework based on finite populations is still lacking. Recently, an explicit mean-field description in the form…
Reduction theory has played a major role in the study of Hamiltonian systems. On the other hand, the Hamilton-Jacobi theory is one of the main tools to integrate the dynamics of certain Hamiltonian problems and a topic of research on its…
This paper is concerned with the spreading speeds of nonlocal dispersal predator-prey systems in shifting habitats under general initial conditions. By employing geometric optics techniques and theory of viscosity solutions, we reformulate…
The evolution of dispersal is a classical question in evolutionary ecology, which has been widely studied with several mathematical models. The main question is to define the fittest dispersal rate for a population in a bounded domain, and,…

We study the well-posedness of an infinite-dimensional Hamilton-Jacobi equation posed on the set of non-negative measures and with a monotonic non-linearity. Our results will be used in a companion work to propose a conjecture and prove…
We establish a well-posedness and error-estimation framework that solves Hamilton-Jacobi equations by minimizing the least-squares residual of monotone finite-difference discretizations. This approach also applies naturally to second-order…
This work is devoted to the study of scaling limits in small mutations and large time of the solutions u^$\epsilon$ of two deterministic models of phenotypic adaptation, where the parameter $\epsilon$ > 0 scales the size of mutations. The…
Species growing in environments that change in time and space will vary in their abundance across locations, even in the absence of persistent location preferences. Here we quantify this non-equilibrium effect by studying a minimal model of…
We study two equations of Lotka-Volterra type that describe the Darwinian evolution of a population density. In the first model a Laplace term represents the mutations. In the second one we model the mutations by an integral kernel. In both…
Many biological populations exhibit diversity in their strategy for survival and reproduction in a given environment, and microbes are an example. We explore the fate of different strategies under sustained environmental change by…
