Spatio-Temporal Modelling of the p53–mdm2 Oscillatory System

K. E. Gordon, I. M.M. van Leeuwen, S. Laín, M. A.J. Chaplain (2009)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

In this paper we investigate the role of spatial effects in determining the dynamics of a subclass of signalling pathways characterised by their ability to demonstrate oscillatory behaviour. To this end, we formulate a simple spatial model of the p53 network that accounts for both a negative feedback and a transcriptional delay. We show that the formation of protein density patterns can depend on the shape of the cell, position of the nucleus, and the protein diffusion rates. The temporal...

Stable solutions of Δ u = f ( u ) in N

Louis Dupaigne, Alberto Farina (2010)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Several Liouville-type theorems are presented for stable solutions of the equation - Δ u = f ( u ) in N , where f > 0 is a general convex, nondecreasing function. Extensions to solutions which are merely stable outside a compact set are discussed.

Subharmonic functions in sub-Riemannian settings

Andrea Bonfiglioli, Ermanno Lanconelli (2013)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

In this paper we furnish mean value characterizations for subharmonic functions related to linear second order partial differential operators with nonnegative characteristic form, possessing a well-behaved fundamental solution Γ . These characterizations are based on suitable average operators on the level sets of Γ . Asymptotic characterizations are also considered, extending classical results of Blaschke, Privaloff, Radó, Beckenbach, Reade and Saks. We analyze as well the notion of subharmonic function...
