Dynamical Systems in Population Biology (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This research monograph provides an introduction to the theory of nonautonomous semiflows with applications to population dynamics. It develops dynamical system approaches to various evolutionary equations such as difference, ordinary, functional, and partial differential equations, and pays more attention to periodic and almost periodic phenomena. This book is aimed at research mathematicians working with nonlinear dynamics, but it can also be used as a textbook or as supplementary reading for a graduate special topics course on the theory and applications of dynamical systems.

Rezensionen

"In this interesting book an introduction to the theory of nonautonomous semiows on metric spaces is presented and several applications to population dynamics are given. More attention is paid to periodic and almost periodic models. ... The mathematician interested in mathematical biology will find this book useful. It may be used as a supplementary textbook for graduate topics related to applications of dynamical systems on mathematical biology. The book includes an impressive list of references."
