Global attractivity, oscillation and Hopf bifurcation for a class of diffusive hematopoiesis models

Xiao Wang, Zhixiang Li (2007)

Open Mathematics

In this paper, we discuss the special diffusive hematopoiesis model P ( t , x ) t = Δ P ( t , x ) - γ P ( t , x ) + β P ( t - τ , x ) 1 + P n ( t - τ , x ) with Neumann boundary condition. Sufficient conditions are provided for the global attractivity and oscillation of the equilibrium for Eq. (*), by using a new theorem we stated and proved. When P(t, χ) does not depend on a spatial variable χ ∈ Ω, these results are also true and extend or complement existing results. Finally, existence and stability of the Hopf bifurcation for Eq. (*) are studied.

Global existence and convergence to steady states in a chemorepulsion system

Tomasz Cieślak, Philippe Laurençot, Cristian Morales-Rodrigo (2008)

Banach Center Publications

In this paper we consider a model of chemorepulsion. We prove global existence and uniqueness of smooth classical solutions in space dimension n = 2. For n = 3,4 we prove the global existence of weak solutions. The convergence to steady states is shown in all cases.

Global existence and uniqueness of weak solutions to Cahn-Hilliard-Gurtin system in elastic solids

Irena Pawłow, Wojciech M. Zajączkowski (2008)

Banach Center Publications

In this paper we study the Cahn-Hilliard-Gurtin system describing the phase-separation process in elastic solids. The system has been derived by Gurtin (1996) as an extension of the classical Cahn-Hilliard equation. For a version with viscosity we prove the existence and uniqueness of a weak solution on an infinite time interval and derive an absorbing set estimate.

Global existence of solutions for a strongly coupled population system

Gonzalo Galiano, Ansgar Jüngel (2003)

Banach Center Publications

A strongly coupled cross-diffusion model for two competing species in a heterogeneous environment is analyzed. We sketch the proof of an existence result for the evolution problem with non-flux boundary conditions in one space dimension, completing previous results [4]. The proof is based on a symmetrization of the problem via an exponential transformation of variables and the use of an entropy functional.

Global existence of weak solutions to the Fried-Gurtin model of phase transitions

Zenon Kosowski (2007)

Applicationes Mathematicae

We prove the existence of global in time weak solutions to a three-dimensional system of equations arising in a simple version of the Fried-Gurtin model for the isothermal phase transition in solids. In this model the phase is characterized by an order parameter. The problem considered here has the form of a coupled system of three-dimensional elasticity and parabolic equations. The system is studied with the help of the Faedo-Galerkin method using energy estimates.
