Ordinary & Partial Differential Equations

Disease in the prey population increases the risk of prey outcomes in predation or to be harvested. In this book, an eco-epidemiological model consisting of predator-prey model with SIS disease in the prey population is proposed and analysed. Furthermore, the authors discuss a mathematical S-E-I-L (Susceptible-Latently infected-Infected-Lost of sight) model for the spread of a directly transmitted infectious disease in an age-structured population; examine how starting from the classical Chebyshev ordinary differential equation (ODE), a generic realisation of its Lie algebra of point symmetries sl(3;R) is obtained in terms of the Chebyshev polynomials of first and second kind; and give a comparative summary of different recent contributions to the theme of the linear stability and nonlinear dynamics of solitary waves in the nonlinear Dirac equation in the form of the Gross-Neveu model.
