Mathematical Sciences: Reaction-Diffusion Models for Mathematical Ecology

该项目涉及使用数学模型来研究占据异质环境的物种的种群动态。本研究对污染水体中鱼类的恢复、野生动物保护区的设计与维护等问题具有一定的指导意义。所使用的特殊模型是反应扩散方程系统，为这类系统的一般类别产生新的理论结果也是本项目的一部分。

This project involves the use of mathematical models to study the population dynamics of species occupying a heterogeneous environment. This study could have implication for such problems as the restoration of fish in polluted bodies of water and the design and maintenance of wildlife refuges. The particular models used are systems of reaction diffusion equations and it is also part of this project to produce new theoretical results for general classes of such systems.
