Periodic travelling waves in cyclic populations: field studies and reaction–diffusion models

JA Sherratt, MJ Smith - Journal of the Royal Society …, 2008 - royalsocietypublishing.org

studies of populations undergoing multi-year cycles. Mathematical modelling has a major …

Neural networks as spatio-temporal pattern-forming systems

B Ermentrout - Reports on progress in physics, 1998 - iopscience.iop.org
Abstract Models of neural networks are developed from a biological point of view. Small
networks are analysed using techniques from dynamical systems. The behaviour of spatially …

Wave of chaos: new mechanism of pattern formation in spatio-temporal population dynamics

SV Petrovskii, H Malchow - Theoretical population biology, 2001 - Elsevier
The dynamics of a simple prey–predator system is described by a system of two reaction-
diffusion equations with biologically reasonable non-linearities (logistic growth of the prey …

Mathematical modelling of the spatio‐temporal response of cytotoxic T‐lymphocytes to a solid tumour

A Matzavinos, MAJ Chaplain… - … Medicine and Biology, 2004 - academic.oup.com
In this paper a mathematical model describing the growth of a solid tumour in the presence
of an immune system response is presented. In particular, attention is focused upon the …

Allee effect makes possible patchy invasion in a predator–prey system

SV Petrovskii, AY Morozov, E Venturino - Ecology Letters, 2002 - Wiley Online Library
The dynamics of interacting ecological populations results from the interplay between
various deterministic and stochastic factors and this is particularly the case for the …

Localized patterns in reaction-diffusion systems

The analysis of synaptically generated traveling waves

B Ermentrout - Journal of computational neuroscience, 1998 - Springer
Mathematical and computational models for the propagation of activity in excitatorily coupled
neurons are simulated and analyzed. The basic measurable quantity—velocity—is found for …
