Spatiotemporal patterns in models of biological invasion and epidemic spread

  • Date: 09/11/2006
Speaker(s):

Frank M Hilker (Centre for Math Biology, University of Alberta)

Location: 

University of Alberta

Topic: 

This seminar is intended to give an informal overview of my previous
work and some recent ideas. I am especially interested in patterns of
spatiotemporal dynamics that are induced by the joint interplay of
spatial spread, demographics (e.g., Allee effects), predation,
epidemiology and noise. More specifically, I will mainly address
mathematical models of planktonic food chains and Feline
Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV) transmission within cat populations.
Moreover, I will present a method how to control chaotic population
dynamics.
