Modelling Order and Disorder: Integro-Differential Nonlinear Equations provides an overview of a general mathematical structure: integro-differential nonlinear equations. This mathematical structure provides a unified approach to model complex systems in social sciences, economics, biology, medicine, and other quantitative disciplines. The general aim of the book is to reflect possible organization and disorganization phenomena in the applied sciences, as well as to focus on non-local interactions. Features Applications to social, biological, and physical phenomenaSuitable for researchers…mehr
