Stability and attractivity of periodic solutions of parabolic systems with time delays

This paper is concerned with the existence, stability, and global attractivity of time-periodic solutions for a class of coupled parabolic equations in a bounded domain. The problem under consideration includes coupled system of parabolic and ordinary differential equations, and time delays may appear in the nonlinear reaction functions. Our approach to the problem is by the method of upper and lower solutions and its associated monotone iterations. The existence of time-periodic solutions is for a class of locally Lipschitz continuous reaction functions without any quasimonotone requirement using Schauder fixed point theorem, while the stability and attractivity analysis is for quasimonotone nondecreasing and mixed quasimonotone reaction functions using the monotone iterative scheme. The results for the general system are applied to the standard parabolic equations without time delay and to the corresponding ordinary differential system. Applications are also given to three Lotka-Volterra reaction diffusion model problems, and in each problem a sufficient condition on the reaction rates is obtained to ensure the stability and global attractivity of positive periodic solutions.

Existence of periodic solutions,global attractivity and oscillation of impulsive delay population model

In this paper we consider the nonlinear impulsive delay population model. The main objective is to systematically study the qualitative behavior of the model including existence of periodic solutions, global attractivity and oscillation. The main oscillation results are the results of the prevalence of the mature cells about the periodic solutions and the global attractivity results are the conditions for nonexistence of dynamical diseases on the population.     

Qualitative analysis of a coupled reaction-diffusion model in biology with time delays

Certain biochemical reaction can be modeled by a coupled system of time-delayed ordinary differential equations and linear parabolic partial differential equations. In a three-compartment model these equations are coupled through the boundary conditions. The aim of this paper is to give a qualitive analysis of this unusual coupled system. The analysis includes the existence and uniqueness of a global solution, explicit upper and lower bounds of the solution, and global stability of a steady-state solution. The global stability result is with respect to any nonnegative initial perturbation and is independent of the time delays in the process of reaction. Special attention is given to the Goodwin model for biochemical control of genes by a negative feedback mechanism with time delay and diffusion.     

Global convergence of a kinetic model of chemotaxis to a perturbed Keller–Segel model

We consider a class of kinetic models of chemotaxis with two positive non-dimensional parameters coupled to a parabolic equation of the chemo-attractant. If both parameters are set equal zero, we have the classical Keller–Segel model for chemotaxis. We prove global existence of solutions of this two-parameters kinetic model and prove convergence of this model to models of chemotaxis with global existence when one of these two parameters is set equal zero. In one case, we find as a limit model a kinetic model of chemotaxis while in the other case we find a perturbed Keller–Segel model with global existence of solutions.     

PERIODIC SOLUTIONS AND ALMOST PERIODIC SOLUTIONS OF A NONAUTONOMOUS PREDATOR-PREY SYSTEM WITH STAGE-STRUCTURE AND DELAY

In this paper, by using the comparing theorem, Razumikhin-type theorem and V-function method, we consider a nonautonomous predator-prey system with stage-structure and time-delay. We get the sufficient conditions for the uniform persistence and the solutions global attractivity of this system. For a periodic system, we obtain the existence and uniqueness of a positive periodic solution of this system. For an almost periodic system, we prove the existence and the uniform asymptotic stability of the almost periodic solutions of this system.

Existence and stability of periodic solutions for parabolic systems with time delays

This paper is concerned with the existence and stability time-periodic solutions for a class of coupled parabolic equations with time delay, and time delays may appear in the nonlinear reaction functions. The existence of time-periodic solutions is for a class of locally Lipschitz continuous reaction functions without any quasimonotone requirement. Our approach to the problem is by the method of upper and lower solution and using Schauder fixed point theorem. Some methods for proving the stability of the periodic solution are also given. The results for the general system can be applied to the standard parabolic equations without time delay and corresponding ordinary differential system. Finally, a model arising from chemistry is used to illustrate the obtained results.     

Existence of a solution for two phase flow in porous media: The case that the porosity depends on the pressure

In this paper we prove the existence of a solution of a coupled system involving a two phase incompressible flow in the ground and the mechanical deformation of the porous medium where the porosity is a function of the global pressure. The model is strongly coupled and involves a nonlinear degenerate parabolic equation. In order to show the existence of a weak solution, we consider a sequence of related uniformly parabolic problems and apply the Schauder fixed point theorem to show that they possess a classical solution. We then prove the relative compactness of sequences of solutions by means of the Fréchet-Kolmogorov theorem; this yields the convergence of a subsequence to a weak solution of the parabolic system.     

The nonsymmetric case of the Keller-Segel model in chemotaxis: some recent results

Looking at the nonsymmetric case of a reaction-diffusion model known as the Keller-Segel model, we summarize known facts concerning (global in time) existence and prove new blowup results for solutions of this system of two strongly coupled parabolic partial differential equations. We show in Section 4, Theorem 4, that if the solution blows up under a condition on the initial data, blowup takes place at the boundary of a smooth domain . Using variational techniques we prove in Section 5 the existence of nontrivial stationary solutions in a special case of the system. Received April 2000

In this paper we discuss the existence and global attractivity of k-pseudo almost automorphic sequence solution of a model of bidirectional cellular neural networks. We consider the corresponding difference equation analogue of the model system using suitable discretization method and obtain certain conditions for the existence of solution. The k-pseudo almost automorphic sequence solutions generalize the results of pseudo almost periodic, almost periodic and almost automorphic sequences solutions. Moreover the results proved in this paper are new and compliment the existing one.

Reaction-Diffusion Equations in Homogeneous Media: Existence,Uniqueness and Stability of Travelling Fronts

The goal of this survey is to describe the construction and some qualitative properties of particular global solutions of certain reaction-diffusion equations. These solutions are known as travelling fronts (or travelling waves) and play an important role in the long-time behaviour of the solutions of the parabolic system. We will mainly focus on the existence of travelling wave solutions and their stability. We will also give some standard tools in elliptic and parabolic theory, which are of general interest.     

Global existence and stability of solution of a reaction-diffusion model for cancer invasion

In this paper, we study a mathematical model of cancer invasion proposed by Gatenby and Gawlinski. The model is a strongly coupled degenerate reaction-diffusion system. Very few mathematical results are known for this system. We investigate the global existence of classical solutions for the system by using energy estimates and the bootstrap arguments, and global asymptotic stability of equilibrium points of the system by Lyapunov functions.
