Decay rates of Volterra equations on ℝN

Monica Conti, Stefania Gatti, Vittorino Pata (2007)

Open Mathematics

This note is concerned with the linear Volterra equation of hyperbolic type t t u ( t ) - α Δ u ( t ) + 0 t μ ( s ) Δ u ( t - s ) d s = 0 on the whole space ℝN. New results concerning the decay of the associated energy as time goes to infinity were established.

Existence and Asymptotic Stability of Solutions of a Perturbed Quadratic Fractional Integral Equation

Darwish, Mohamed, Henderson, Johnny (2009)

Fractional Calculus and Applied Analysis

Mathematics Subject Classification: 45G10, 45M99, 47H09We study the solvability of a perturbed quadratic integral equation of fractional order with linear modification of the argument. This equation is considered in the Banach space of real functions which are defined, bounded and continuous on an unbounded interval. Moreover, we will obtain some asymptotic characterization of solutions. Finally, we give an example to illustrate our abstract results.

On three problems of neutron transport theory

Jan Kyncl (1986)

Aplikace matematiky

In this paper, the initial-value problem, the problem of asymptotic time behaviour of its solution and the problem of criticality are studied in the case of linear Boltzmann equation for both finite and infinite media. Space of functions where these problems are solved is chosen in such a vay that the range of physical situations considered may be so wide as possible. As mathematical apparatus the theory of positive bounded operators and of semigroups are applied. Main results are summarized in...

Populational adaptive evolution, chemotherapeutic resistance and multiple anti-cancer therapies

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

Resistance to chemotherapies, particularly to anticancer treatments, is an increasing medical concern. Among the many mechanisms at work in cancers, one of the most important is the selection of tumor cells expressing resistance genes or phenotypes. Motivated by the theory of mutation-selection in adaptive evolution, we propose a model based on a continuous variable that represents the expression level of a resistance gene (or genes, yielding a phenotype) influencing in healthy and tumor cells birth/death...
