In this paper we study the Lyapunov stability and Hopf bifurcation in a biological system which models the biological control of parasites of orange plantations.
Intra-tumour heterogeneity (ITH) has a strong impact on the efficacy of the immune response against solid tumours. The number of sub-populations of cancer cells expressing different antigens and the percentage of immunogenic cells (i.e.…
The double Hamiltonian Hopf bifurcation is studied, i.e. a generic two-parametric unfolding of a smooth Hamiltonian system with four degrees of freedom which has at the critical value of parameters the equilibrium with two pairs of double…
Autonomous sustained oscillations are ubiquitous in living and nonliving systems. As open systems, far from thermodynamic equilibrium, they defy entropic laws which mandate convergence to stationarity. We present structural conditions on…
We study the two state model which describes the balance equation for carbon dioxide and oxygen. These are nonlinear parameter dependent and because of the transport delay in the respiratory control system, they are modeled with delay…
When confronted with an undesired cell population, such as bacterial infections or tumors, we seek the most effective treatment, designed to eliminate the population as rapidly as possible. A common practice is to monitor the cells…
Cancer is a heterogeneous disease with different combinations of genetic and epigenetic alterations driving the development of cancer in different individuals. While these alterations are believed to converge on genes in key cellular…
We make a mathematical analysis of an age structured HIV infection model with both virus-to-cell and cell-to-cell transmissions to understand the dynamical behavior of HIV infection in vivo. In the model, we consider the proliferation of…
In this work we propose and investigate a family of models, which admits as particular cases some well known mathematical models of tumor-immune system interaction, with the additional assumption that the influx of immune system cells may…
In this paper, we adapt a two-species agent-based cancer model that describes the interaction between cancer cells and healthy cells on a uniform grid to include the interaction with a third species -- namely immune cells. We run six…
Phenotype variations define heterogeneity of biological and molecular systems, which play a crucial role in several mechanisms. Heterogeneity has been demonstrated in tumor cells. Here, samples from blood of patients affected from colon…
In this paper, we consider a continuous-time model with discrete and dis-tributed delays to describe how two pieces of information interact in online social networks. Sufficient conditions are carried out to illustrate the stability of each…
Many physical systems exhibit limit cycle oscillations induced by Hopf bifurcations. In aerospace engineering, limit cycle oscillations arise from undesirable Hopf bifurcation phenomena such as aeroelastic flutter and transonic buffet. In…
Selection of a phenotypical trait can be described in mathematical terms by 'stage structured' equations which are usually written under the form of integral equations so as to express competition for resource between individuals whatever…
In this article a generalized mathematical model describing the interactions between malignant tumour and immune system with discrete time delay incorporated into the system is considered. Time delay represents the time required to generate…
Cancer stem cells have been shown to be critical to the development of a variety of solid cancers. The precise interplay mechanisms between cancer stem cells and the rest of a tissue are still not elucidated. To shed light on the…
In this work we propose a feedback approach to regulate the chaotic behavior of the whole family of the generalized Lorenz system, by designing a nonlinear delayed feedback control. We first study the effect of the delay on the dynamics of…
Cancer development is driven by mutations and selective forces, including the action of the immune system and interspecific competition. When administered to patients, anti-cancer therapies affect the development and dynamics of tumours,…
Tumor-immune interactions are shaped by both antigenic heterogeneity and stochastic perturbations in the tumor microenvironment, yet the mathematical mechanisms underlying immune phase transitions remain poorly understood. We propose a…
This paper provides a unified mathematical analysis of a family of non-local diffuse interface models for tumor growth describing evolutions driven by long-range interactions. These integro-partial differential equations model cell-to-cell…
