This note contains a survey of recent results concerning asymptotic properties of Markov operators and semigroups. Some biological and physical applications are given.
Mathematical and numerical analysis of radiative heat transfer in semi-transparent media
This paper is concerned with mathematical and numerical analysis of the system of radiative integral transfer equations. The existence and uniqueness of solution to the integral system is proved by establishing the boundedness of the radiative integral operators and proving the invertibility of the operator matrix associated with the system. A collocation-boundary element method is developed to discretize the differential-integral system. For the non-convex geometries, an element-subdivision algorithm...
Mathematical modeling of the competition between acquired immunity and cancer
In this paper we propose and analyse a model of the competition between cancer and the acquired immune system. The model is a system of integro-differential bilinear equations. The role of the humoral response is analyzed. The simulations are related to the immunotherapy of tumors with antibodies.
Maximal regularity for abstract parabolic problems with inhomogeneous boundary data in -spaces
Maximal regularity for abstract parabolic problems with inhomogeneous boundary data in -spaces
Several abstract model problems of elliptic and parabolic type with inhomogeneous initial and boundary data are discussed. By means of a variant of the Dore-Venni theorem, real and complex interpolation, and trace theorems, optimal -regularity is shown. By means of this purely operator theoretic approach, classical results on -regularity of the diffusion equation with inhomogeneous Dirichlet or Neumann or Robin condition are recovered. An application to a dynamic boundary value problem with surface...
Maximum Principle and Its Application for the Time-Fractional Diffusion Equations
MSC 2010: 26A33, 33E12, 35B45, 35B50, 35K99, 45K05 Dedicated to Professor Rudolf Gorenflo on the occasion of his 80th anniversaryIn the paper, maximum principle for the generalized time-fractional diffusion equations including the multi-term diffusion equation and the diffusion equation of distributed order is formulated and discussed. In these equations, the time-fractional derivative is defined in the Caputo sense. In contrast to the Riemann-Liouville fractional derivative, the Caputo fractional...

Monte Carlo Random Walk Simulations Based on Distributed Order Differential Equations with Applications to Cell Biology
Mathematics Subject Classification: 65C05, 60G50, 39A10, 92C37In this paper the multi-dimensional Monte-Carlo random walk simulation models governed by distributed fractional order differential equations (DODEs) and multi-term fractional order differential equations are constructed. The construction is based on the discretization leading to a generalized difference scheme (containing a finite number of terms in the time step and infinite number of terms in the space step) of the Cauchy problem for...
