Pseudo almost periodic solutions for a model of hematopoiesis with an oscillating circulation loss rate

In this paper, a model of hematopoiesis with an oscillating circulation loss rate is investigated. By applying the exponential dichotomy theory, contraction mapping fixed‐point theorem, and differential inequality techniques, a set of sufficient conditions are obtained for the existence and exponential stability of positive pseudo almost periodic solutions of the model. Some numerical simulations are carried out to support the theoretical findings. Our results improve and generalize those of the previous studies. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Existence and global exponential stability of almost periodic solution for delayed competitive neural networks with discontinuous activations

In this paper, we study a class of delayed competitive neural networks with discontinuous activations. Without assuming the boundedness and local Lipschizian on the activation functions, some new criteria ensuring the existence and global exponential stability of almost periodic solutions for the neural network model considered in this work are established by constructing some suitable Lyapunov functionals and employing the theory of nonsmooth analysis. Finally, we present some applications and numerical examples with simulations to show the effectiveness of our main results. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Pseudo almost periodic in distribution solutions and optimal solutions to impulsive partial stochastic differential equations with infinite delay

In this paper, we study a general class of impulsive partial stochastic differential equations with infinite delay and pseudo almost periodic coefficients in Hilbert spaces. Firstly, a more appropriate concept of pseudo almost periodic in distribution for stochastic processes of infinite class is introduced. Secondly, the existence of pseudo almost periodic in distribution mild solutions is investigated by utilizing the interpolation theory, the stochastic analysis techniques and fixed point theorem. The existence of optimal mild solutions of the systems is also proved. Finally, an example is provided to show the effectiveness of the theoretical results.

Some sufficient conditions which ensure the existence and exponential stability of almost periodic solutions for such class of BAM neural networks are obtained by applying the exponential dichotomy of linear differential equations, Lapunov functional method and contraction mapping principle. An example is given to illustrate the effectiveness of the theoretical predictions. The obtained results in this paper are completely new and complement the previously known publications.     

Epidemic dynamics in a heterogeneous incompletely isolated population with allowance for seasonal variations in the infection rate

Mathematical parasite-host models are generalized to the case when the population members differ in susceptibility and contagiousness, there is an external source of infection, and the model parameters depend periodically (seasonally) on time. The model is proved to have a periodic solution that is unique and exponentially stable for sufficiently small periodic oscillations of the coefficients.     

Stepanov-like pseudo almost periodic solutions for impulsive perturbed partial stochastic differential equations and its optimal control

This paper is mainly concerned with the Stepanov-like pseudo almost periodicity to a class of impulsive perturbed partial stochastic differential equations. Firstly, we prove the existence of $p$-mean piecewise Stepanov-like pseudo almost periodic mild solutions for the impulsive stochastic dynamical system in a Hilbert space under non-Lipschitz conditions. The results are obtained by using the fixed point techniques with fractional power arguments. Then the existence of optimal pairs of system governed by impulsive partial stochastic differential equations is also obtained. Finally, an example is provided to illustrate the developed theory.

Periodic solution and almost periodic solution for a nonautonomous Lotka-Volterra dispersal system with infinite delay

This paper studies a nonautonomous Lotka-Volterra dispersal systems with infinite time delay which models the diffusion of a single species into n patches by discrete dispersal. Our results show that the system is uniformly persistent under an appropriate condition. The sufficient condition for the global asymptotical stability of the system is also given. By using Mawhin continuation theorem of coincidence degree, we prove that the periodic system has at least one positive periodic solution, further, obtain the uniqueness and globally asymptotical stability for periodic system. By using functional hull theory and directly analyzing the right functional of almost periodic system, we show that the almost periodic system has a unique globally asymptotical stable positive almost periodic solution. We also show that the delays have very important effects on the dynamic behaviors of the system.     

On the decay of solutions for a class of quasilinear hyperbolic equations with non‐linear damping and source terms

In this paper, we consider the non‐linear wave equation a,b>0, associated with initial and Dirichlet boundary conditions. Under suitable conditions on α, m, and p, we give precise decay rates for the solution. In particular, we show that for m=0, the decay is exponential. This work improves the result by Yang (Math. Meth. Appl. Sci. 2002; 25 :795–814). Copyright © 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Pseudo–almost‐periodic solutions for delayed differential equations with integrable dichotomies and bi–almost‐periodic Green functions

Using the existence of integrable bi–almost‐periodic Green functions of linear homogeneous differential equations and the contraction fixed point, we are able to prove the existence of almost and pseudo–almost‐periodic mild solutions under quite general hypotheses for the differential equation with constant delay in a Banach space X, where τ>0 is a fixed constant. The results extend the corresponding ones in the case of exponential dichotomy. Some examples illustrate the importance of the concepts.     

Mathematical analysis of a model describing the number of antibiotic resistant bacteria in a polluted river

In France, 90% of surface water suffer from antibiotic pollution that increases the number of antibiotic resistant bacteria. The first indicator of water quality is revealed by the fish quality. According to the Le Conseil Supérieur de la Pêche, only 15% of rivers in France are considered in good condition, whereas 22% are in very bad condition. The bacterial resistance to antibiotics is a public health problem as it affects humans through drinking water; the treatment of water is costly. Mathematical modeling may estimate and predict the quantity of bacteria in rivers. In this paper, we investigate properties of the mathematical model estimating the number of bacteria in a river presented by Lawrence, Mummert and Somerville. Global analysis of equilibria is presented, using a Lyapunov function. Moreover, the existence of positive periodic solutions is proven. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
