Nonlinear PDEs: Mathematical Models in Biology, Chemistry and Population Genetics


Add your own review!

Overview

The emphasis throughout the present volume is on the practical application of theoretical mathematical models helping to unravel the underlying mechanisms involved in processes from mathematical physics and biosciences. It has been conceived as a unique collection of abstract methods dealing especially with nonlinear partial differential equations (either stationary or evolutionary) that are applied to understand concrete processes involving some important applications related to phenomena such as: boundary layer phenomena for viscous fluids, population dynamics,, dead core phenomena, etc. It addresses researchers and post-graduate students working at the interplay between mathematics and other fields of science and technology and is a comprehensive introduction to the theory of nonlinear partial differential equations  and its main principles also presents their real-life applications in various contexts: mathematical physics, chemistry, mathematical biology, and population genetics. Based on the authors' original work, this volume provides an overview of the field, with examples suitable for researchers but also for graduate students entering research. The method of presentation appeals to readers with diverse backgrounds in partial differential equations and functional analysis. Each chapter includes detailed heuristic arguments, providing thorough motivation for the material developed later in the text. The content demonstrates in a firm way that partial differential equations can be used to address a large variety of phenomena occurring in and influencing our daily lives. The extensive reference list and index make this book a valuable resource for researchers working in a variety of fields and who are interested in phenomena modeled by nonlinear partial differential equations.​

Reviews

From the reviews: The purpose of this book is to introduce fundamental techniques that are used for modeling and mathematical analysis of problems arising in chemistry, biology or genetics. ... The book concludes with the extensive bibliography (217 references) and a detailed index. It will be useful for researchers, graduate students and specialists working with partial differential equations and their applications in chemistry and biomathematics. (Yuri V. Rogovchenko, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1227, 2012)
