โฆ Synopsis
competition-diffusion
system, where populations of healthy and ill cells compete and move on a neutral matrix, is analyzed. A coupled system of nonlinear parabolic equations is derived through a scaling procedure from the microscopic, Markovian dynamics. The space dependent solutions show a behavior markedly different from the associated ODE system. For a large class of initial conditions, the asymptotic behavior of the system can be described through the analysis of associated travelling waves.

Stochastic systems of Brownian motions with multiple deletion of particles are introduced to model a chemical reaction with diffusion. Convergence to the solution of a deterministic nonlinear reaction-diffusion equation is proved without high-density assumptions.
