In this paper, we consider an opioid epidemic dynamical model with random perturbation that typically describes the interplay between regular prescription use, addictive use, and the process of rehabilitation from addiction and vice-versa.…

Based on previous work done in this field, we build a dynamical system that describes changes in drug addiction in an isolated population when two addictive substances are available simultaneously. We then use our model to investigate…

We discuss two cases that can be connected to the dynamics of interacting populations: (I.) density waves for the case or negligible random fluctuations of the populations densities, and (II.) probability distributions connected to the…

We explain the ubiquity and extremely slow evolution of non gaussian out-of-equilibrium distributions for the Hamiltonian Mean-Field model, by means of traditional kinetic theory. Deriving the Fokker-Planck equation for a test particle, one…
