We consider a simple model for the immune system in which virus are able to undergo mutations and are in competition with leukocytes. These mutations are related to several other concepts which have been proposed in the literature like those of shape or of virulence – a continuous notion. For a given species, the system admits a globally attractive critical point. We prove that mutations do not affect this picture for small perturbations and under strong structural assumptions. Based on numerical...
We consider a simple model for the immune system
in which virus are able to undergo mutations and are in competition

A classical result on the existence of global attractors for gradient systems is extended to the case of a semigroup S(t) lacking strong continuity, but satisfying the weaker property of being a closed map for every fixed t ≥ 0.
In this paper, we investigate the problem of stability of linear time-varying singular systems, which are transferable into a standard canonical form. Sufficient conditions on exponential stability and practical exponential stability of solutions of linear perturbed singular systems are obtained based on generalized Gronwall inequalities and Lyapunov techniques. Moreover, we study the problem of stability and stabilization for some classes of singular systems. Finally, we present a numerical example...
Coral reefs can undergo relatively rapid changes in the dominant biota, a phenomenon referred to as phase shift. Degradation of coral reefs is often associated with changes in community structure towards a macroalgae-dominated reef ecosystem due to the reduction in herbivory caused by overfishing. We investigate the coral-macroalgal phase shift due to the effects of harvesting of herbivorous reef fish by means of a continuous time model in the food chain. Conditions for local asymptotic stability...
Recently the effect of a quiescent phase (or dormant/resting phase in applications) on
the dynamics of a system of differential equations has been investigated, in particular with respect
to stability properties of stationary points. It has been shown that there is a general phenomenon
of stabilization against oscillations which can be cast in rigorous form. Here we investigate, for
homogeneous systems, the effect of a quiescent phase, and more generally, a phase with slower
dynamics. We show that...
In this paper the issue of impulsive stabilization and synchronization of uncertain financial hyperchaotic systems with parameters perturbation is investigated. Applying the impulsive control theory, some less conservative and easily verified criteria for the stabilization and synchronization of financial hyperchaotic systems are derived. The control gains and impulsive intervals can be variable. Moreover, the boundaries of the stable region are also estimated according to the equidistant impulse...
We consider a reaction-diffusion system of activator-inhibitor type which is subject to Turing's diffusion-driven instability. It is shown that unilateral obstacles of various type for the inhibitor, modeled by variational inequalities, lead to instability of the trivial solution in a parameter domain where it would be stable otherwise. The result is based on a previous joint work with I.-S. Kim, but a refinement of the underlying theoretical tool is developed. Moreover, a different regime of parameters...
