Reviews

“This book serves as a good reference for some modern theories of reaction-diffusion equations and its applications to population dynamics. It is written in a self-contained manner that are friendly to beginners … .” (Wan-Tong Li, zbMATH 1521.35001, 2023)

Author Information

King-Yeung Lam is associate professor of mathematics at the Ohio State University. His areas of specialization are partial differential equations and mathematical biology. He has worked on the mathematical aspects of competition of multiple species, evolution of dispersal, asymptotic spreading of species, population dynamics of phytoplankton species, as well as free boundary problems describing cancer and a range of diseases. Yuan Lou is professor of mathematics at Shanghai Jiao Tong University. His areas of specialization are partial differential equations and mathematical biology. He has worked on the mathematical aspects of cross-diffusion systems, Lotka-Volterra competition models with diffusion, population dynamics of phytoplankton species, and the modeling and analysis of infectious diseases. He is the former associate director of the Mathematical Biosciences Institute at the Ohio State University, and the founding director of the Institute for Mathematical Sciences at Renmin University of China.
