Impulsive control strategy for a chemostat model with nutrient recycling and distributed time‐delay

On the basis of the simplest and deterministic chemostat model, we introduce impulsive input, nutrient recycling, and distributed time‐delay into the model in this paper. By using comparison theorem, Floquet theory, and small amplitude skills in the impulsive differential equation, it proves that if the period of impulsive input is too long and the parameter α of the kernel function in the delay is too small, then there exists a microorganism‐eradication periodic solution that is globally asymptotically stable, and the cultivation of the microorganism fails. On the contrary, if we choose suitable impulsive strategy, such as increasing the concentration of the substrate or enhance the proportion of the concentration of the impulsive input of the substrate at periodic time to that for the microbial growth, then the system could be controlled to be permanent, and the cultivation of the microorganism will be successful.

Study of chemostat model with impulsive input and nutrient recycling in a polluted environment

In this paper, we introduce and study a Monod type chemostat model with nutrient recycling and impulsive input in a polluted environment. The sufficient and necessary conditions on the permanence and extinction of the microorganism are obtained. Two examples are given in the last section to verify our mathematical results. The numerical analysis show that if only the system is permanent, then it also is globally attractive.

Analysis of competitive chemostat models with the Beddington–DeAngelis functional response and impulsive effect

In this paper, we introduce and study a competitive system with Beddington–DeAngelis type functional response in periodic pulsed chemostat conditions. We investigate the subsystem with substrate and one of the microorganisms and study the stability of the periodic solutions, which are the boundary periodic solution of the system. The stability analysis of the boundary periodic solution yields an invasion threshold. By use of standard techniques of bifurcation theory, we prove that above this threshold there are periodic oscillations in substrate and one of the microorganism. Further, we prove that the system is permanent if the impulsive period less than some critical value. Therefore, our results are valuable for the manufacture of products by genetically altered organisms.

Problems and progress in microswimming

Summary Stokesian swimming is a geometric exercise, a collective game. In Part I, we review Shapere and Wilczek's gauge-theoretical approach for a single organism. We estimate the speeds of organisms moving by propagating small amplitude waves, and we make a conjecture regarding a new inequality for the Stokes' curvature. In Part II, we extend the gauge theory to collective motions. We advocate the influx of nonlinear control theory and subriemannian geometry. Computationally, parallel algorithms are natural, each microorganism representing a separate processor. In the final section, open questions motivated by biology are presented. Dedicated to the memory of Juan C. Simo, a pioneer in the use of geometry to produce better analytical and numerical methods in mechanics This paper was solicited by the editors to be part of a volume dedicated to the memory of Juan C.

Optimal Synthesis for the Minimum Time Control Problems of Fed-Batch Bioprocesses for Growth Functions with Two Maxima

We address the problem of finding an optimal feedback control for feeding a fed-batch bioreactor with one species and one substrate from a given initial condition to a given target value in a minimal amount of time. Recently, the optimal synthesis (optimal feeding strategy) has been obtained in systems in which the microorganisms involved are represented by increasing growth functions or growth functions with one maxima, with either Monod or Haldane functions, respectively (widely used in bioprocesses modeling). In the present work, we allow impulsive controls corresponding to instantaneous dilutions, and we assume that the growth function of the microorganism present in the process has exactly two local maxima. This problem has been tackled from a numerical point of view without impulsive controls. In this article, we introduce two singular arc feeding strategies, and we define explicit regions of initial conditions in which the optimal strategy is either the first singular arc strategy or the second strategy.     

A predator–prey model with disease in the prey species only

A predator–prey model with transmissible disease in the prey species is proposed and analysed. The essential mathematical features are analysed with the help of equilibrium, local and global stability analyses and bifurcation theory. We find four possible equilibria. One is where the populations are extinct. Another is where the disease and predator populations are extinct and we find conditions for global stability of this. A third is where both types of prey exist but no predators. The fourth has all three types of individuals present and we find conditions for limit cycles to arise by Hopf bifurcation. Experimental data simulation and brief discussion conclude the paper. Copyright © 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Local Constraints on Einstein–Weyl Geometries: The 3-Dimensional Case

Following an earlier study [3], we consider the Einstein–Weyl equations on a fixed (complex) background metric as an equation for a 1-form and its first few derivatives. If the background is flat then we conclude that the only solutions are conformal rescalings of constant curvature metrics. If the background is a homogeneous 3-geometry in Bianchi class A (i.e., with unimodular isometry group), we find necessary and sufficient conditions on the 3-geometry for solutions of the Einstein–Weyl equations to exist. The solutions we find are complexifications of known ones. In particular, we find that the general left-invariant metric on S³ and the metric 'Sol' admit no local solutions of the Einstein–Weyl equations.     

The problem of distinguishing between a center and a focus for nilpotent and degenerate analytic systems

In this work we study the centers of planar analytic vector fields which are limit of linear type centers. It is proved that all the nilpotent centers are limit of linear type centers and consequently the Poincaré-Liapunov method to find linear type centers can be also used to find the nilpotent centers. Moreover, we show that the degenerate centers which are limit of linear type centers are also detectable with the Poincaré-Liapunov method.

Stability analysis of the continuous ethanol fermentation process with a delayed product inhibition

In the paper, we propose and analyze a mathematical model of the continuous ethanol fermentation process to study the mechanisms of the self-sustained oscillations of ethanol concentration. The model is based on the assumption that microorganism cells response to the inhibitory effect of product (ethanol) concentration with a delay. From the local stability analysis of the system, we show that the delay time is one of the crucial factors for the occurrence of oscillations and for a critical delay time the fermentation process undergoes a Hopf bifurcation. Further analysis shows that the operating variables and kinetic parameters have also a significant effect on the dynamical behavior of the fermentation system. A proper manipulation of the operating variables allow us to eliminate the oscillatory behavior.     

Abelian equations and rank problems for planar webs

We find an invariant characterization of planar webs of maximum rank. For 4-webs, we prove that a planar 4-web is of maximum rank three if and only if it is linearizable and its curvature vanishes. This result leads to the direct web-theoretical proof of the Poincaré theorem: A planar 4-web of maximum rank is linearizable. We also find an invariant intrinsic characterization of planar 4-webs of rank two and one and prove that in general such webs are not linearizable. This solves the Blaschke problem “to find invariant conditions for a planar 4-web to be of rank 1 or 2 or 3.” Finally, we find invariant characterization of planar 5-webs of maximum rank and prove than in general such webs are not linearizable. The text was submitted by the authors in English.     

Least manipulable Envy-free rules in economies with indivisibilities

We consider envy-free and budget-balanced allocation rules for problems where a number of indivisible objects and a fixed amount of money is allocated among a group of agents. In finite economies, we identify under classical preferences each agent’s maximal gain from manipulation. Using this result we find the envy-free and budget-balanced allocation rules which are least manipulable for each preference profile in terms of any agent’s maximal gain. If preferences are quasi-linear, then we can find an envy-free and budget-balanced allocation rule such that for any problem, the maximal utility gain from manipulation is equalized among all agents.     

Antiblocking systems and PD-sets

Since the permutation decoding algorithm is more efficient the smaller the size of the PD-set, it is important for the applications to find small PD-sets. A lower bound on the size of a PD-set is given by Gordon. There are examples for PD-sets, but up to now there is no method known to find PD-sets. The question arises whether the Gordon bound is sharp. To handle this problem we introduce the notion of antiblocking system and we show that there are examples where the Gordon bound is not sharp.     

Growth on multiple interactive-essential resources in a self-cycling fermentor: An impulsive differential equations approach

We introduce a model of the growth of a single microorganism in a self-cycling fermentor in which an arbitrary number of resources are limiting, and impulses are triggered when the concentration of one specific substrate reaches a predetermined level. The model is in the form of a system of impulsive differential equations. We consider the operation of the reactor to be successful if it cycles indefinitely without human intervention and derive conditions for this to occur. In this case, the system of impulsive differential equations has a periodic solution. We show that success is equivalent to the convergence of solutions to this periodic solution. We provide conditions that ensure that a periodic solution exists. When it exists, it is unique and attracting. However, we also show that whether a solution converges to this periodic solution, and hence whether the model predicts that the reactor operates successfully, is initial condition dependent. The analysis is illustrated with numerical examples.     

Degenerate elliptic boundary value problems

In this paper we find conditions that guarantee that regular boundary value problems for elliptic differential-operator equations of the second order in an interval are coercive and Fredholm, and we prove the compactness of a resolvent. We apply this result to find some algebraic conditions that guarantee that regular boundary value problems for degenerate elliptic differential equations of the second order in cylindrical domains have the same properties. Note that considered boundary value conditions are nonlocal and are differential only in their principal part, and a domain is nonsmooth.
