Numerical detection of instability regions for delay models with delay-dependent parameters

In this paper we are interested in gaining local stability insights about the interior equilibria of delay models arising in biomathematics. The models share the property that the corresponding characteristic equations involve delay-dependent coefficients. The presence of such dependence requires the use of suitable criteria which usually makes the analytical work harder so that numerical techniques must be used. Most existing methods for studying stability switching of equilibria fail when applied to such a class of delay models. To this aim, an efficient criterion for stability switches was recently introduced in [E. Beretta, Y. Kuang, Geometric stability switch criteria in delay differential systems with delay dependent parameters, SIAM J. Math. Anal. 33 (2002) 1144–1165] and extended [E. Beretta, Y. Tang, Extension of a geometric stability switch criterion, Funkcial Ekvac 46(3) (2003) 337–361]. We describe how to numerically detect the instability regions of positive equilibria by using such a criterion, considering both discrete and distributed delay models.     

Birth and death in a continuous opinion dynamics model

We here discuss the process of opinion formation in an open community where agents are made to interact and consequently update their beliefs. New actors (birth) are assumed to replace individuals that abandon the community (deaths). This dynamics is simulated in the framework of a simplified model that accounts for mutual affinity between agents. A rich phenomenology is presented and discussed with reference to the original (closed group) setting. Numerical findings are supported by analytical calculations.     

Non-linear protocell models: synchronization and chaos

We consider generic protocells models allowing linear and non-linear kinetics for the main involved chemical reactions. We are interested in understanding if and how the protocell division and the metabolism do synchronise to give rise to sustainable evolution of the protocell.     

Weighted Fractal Networks

In this paper we define a new class of weighted complex networks sharing several properties with fractal sets, and whose topology can be completely analytically characterized in terms of the involved parameters and of the fractal dimension. General networks with fractal or hierarchical structures can be set in the proposed framework that moreover could be used to provide some answers to the widespread emergence of fractal structures in nature.
