Central limit approximations for Markov population processes with countably many types [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
When modelling metapopulation dynamics, the influence of a single patch on the metapopulation depends on the number of individuals in the patch. Since there is usually no obvious natural upper limit on the number of individuals in a patch, this leads to ...

Understanding biofilm--phage interactions in cystic fibrosis patients using mathematical frameworks

open access: yesComputational and Mathematical Biophysics
When planktonic bacteria adhere together to a surface, they begin to form biofilms, communities of bacteria. Biofilm formation in a host can be extremely problematic if left untreated, especially since antibiotics can be ineffective in treating the ...

A Test of Association between Qualitative Trait and a Set of SNPs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
2000 Mathematics Subject Classification: 62P10, 92D10, 92D30, 62F03In this article, we propose a novel candidate-gene association test that utilizes a set of tightly linked single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs).

Stochastic epidemic SEIRS models with a constant latency period

open access: yes, 2017
In this paper we consider the stability of a class of deterministic and stochastic SEIRS epidemic models with delay. Indeed, we assume that the transmission rate could be stochastic and the presence of a latency period of $r$ consecutive days, where $r ...

On Linear Growth in COVID-19 Cases

open access: yesComputational and Mathematical Biophysics, 2020
We present an elementary model of COVID-19 propagation that makes explicit the connection between testing strategies and rates of transmission and the linear growth in new cases observed in many parts of the world.

Effects of environmental variability on superspreading transmission events in stochastic epidemic models

open access: yesInfectious Disease Modelling, 2021
Superspreaders (individuals with a high propensity for disease spread) have played a pivotal role in recent emerging and re-emerging diseases. In disease outbreak studies, host heterogeneity based on demographic (e.g.

Modeling transmission dynamics of rabies in Nepal

open access: yesInfectious Disease Modelling, 2021
Even though vaccines against rabies are available, rabies still remains a burden killing a significant number of humans as well as domestic and wild animals in many parts of the world, including Nepal.

Optimal control and bifurcation analysis of SEIHR model for COVID-19 with vaccination strategies and mask efficiency

open access: yesComputational and Mathematical Biophysics
In this article, we present a susceptible, exposed, infected, hospitalized and recovered compartmental model for COVID-19 with vaccination strategies and mask efficiency. Initially, we established the positivity and boundedness of the solutions to ensure

Analysis of a model arising from invasion by precursor and differentiated cells

open access: yes, 2013
We study the wave solutions for a degenerated reaction diffusion system arising from the invasion of cells. We show that there exists a family of waves for the wave speed larger than or equals a certain number, and below which there is no monotonic wave ...
