An age-dependent model describing the spread of panleucopenia virus within feline populations

Similarity:

Global existence results and long time behavior are provided for a mathematical model describing the propagation of Feline Panleucopenia Virus (FPLV) within a domestic cat population; two transmission modes are involved: a direct one from infective cats to susceptible ones, and an indirect one from the contaminated environment to susceptible cats. A more severe impact of the virus on young cats requires an age-structured model.

Epidemiological Models With Parametric Heterogeneity : Deterministic Theory for Closed Populations

A.S. Novozhilov (2012)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

Similarity:

We present a unified mathematical approach to epidemiological models with parametric heterogeneity, i.e., to the models that describe individuals in the population as having specific parameter (trait) values that vary from one individuals to another. This is a natural framework to model, e.g., heterogeneity in susceptibility or infectivity of individuals. We review, along with the necessary theory, the results obtained using the discussed...

Drift, draft and structure: some mathematical models of evolution

Alison M. Etheridge (2008)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

Understanding the evolution of individuals which live in a structured and fluctuating environment is of central importance in mathematical population genetics. Here we outline some of the mathematical challenges arising from modelling structured populations, primarily focussing on the interplay between forwards in time models for the evolution of the population and backwards in time models for the genealogical trees relating individuals in a sample from that population. In addition to...
