Compartmental Models of Migratory Dynamics

J. Knisley, T. Schmickl, I. Karsai (2011)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

Compartmentalization is a general principle in biological systems which is observable on all size scales, ranging from organelles inside of cells, cells in histology, and up to the level of groups, herds, swarms, meta-populations, and populations. Compartmental models are often used to model such phenomena, but such models can be both highly nonlinear and difficult to work with.Fortunately, there are many significant biological systems that are amenable to linear compartmental models which are often...

Complementary matrices in the inclusion principle for dynamic controllers

Lubomír Bakule, José Rodellar, Josep M. Rossell (2003)

Kybernetika

A generalized structure of complementary matrices involved in the input-state- output Inclusion Principle for linear time-invariant systems (LTI) including contractibility conditions for static state feedback controllers is well known. In this paper, it is shown how to further extend this structure in a systematic way when considering contractibility of dynamic controllers. Necessary and sufficient conditions for contractibility are proved in terms of both unstructured and block structured complementary...

Computing generalized inverse systems using matrix pencil methods

Andras Varga (2001)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

We address the numerically reliable computation of generalized inverses of rational matrices in descriptor state-space representation. We put particular emphasis on two classes of inverses: the weak generalized inverse and the Moore-Penrose pseudoinverse. By combining the underlying computational techniques, other types of inverses of rational matrices can be computed as well. The main computational ingredient to determine generalized inverses is the orthogonal reduction of the system matrix pencil...

Computing the differential of an unfolded contact diffeomorphism

Klaus Böhmer, Drahoslava Janovská, Vladimír Janovský (2003)

Applications of Mathematics

Consider a bifurcation problem, namely, its bifurcation equation. There is a diffeomorphism Φ linking the actual solution set with an unfolded normal form of the bifurcation equation. The differential D Φ ( 0 ) of this diffeomorphism is a valuable information for a numerical analysis of the imperfect bifurcation. The aim of this paper is to construct algorithms for a computation of D Φ ( 0 ) . Singularity classes containing bifurcation points with c o d i m 3 , c o r a n k = 1 are considered.

Conditional differential equations

Celina Rom (2016)

Applicationes Mathematicae

We introduce and study conditional differential equations, a kind of random differential equations. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of a solution of such an equation. We apply our main result to a Malthus type model.
