    The effect of epidemics on genetic evolution

    Mathematical models of a vector-borne infectious disease acting on a host population consisting of three genotypes which differ in susceptibility to, recovery from, and death due to the disease are presented a...

    The effects of seasonal fluctuations on an open access fishery problem

    The Gordon-Schaefer model with periodic coefficients is studied. A suitable real parameter d is found such that positive periodic solutions exist iff d > 0. No uniqueness result may be proved as shown with an exa...

    Lyapunov functions for a generalized Gause-type model

    Lyapunov functions are given to prove the global asymptotic stability of a large class of predator-prey models, including the ones in which the intrinsic growth rate of the prey follows the Ricker-law or the O...

    Assessment of the COOP charts with and without pictures in a Swiss population

    Objectives: This study aimed to assess the validity of COOP charts in a general population sample, to examine whether illustrations contribute to instrument validity, and to establish general population norms. M...

    Non-linear oscillator models for the X-ray bursting of the microquasar GRS 1915+105

    The microquasar GRS 1915+105, exhibits a large variety of characteristic states, according to its luminosity, spectral state, and variability. The most interesting one is the so-called ρ-state, whose light curve ...
