Gene therapy is a promising approach for treating a wide range of human pathologies such as genetic disorders as well as diseases acquired over time. Viral and non-viral vectors are used to convey sequences of genes that can be expressed for therapeutic purposes. Plasmid DNA is receiving… |

Macrophages derived from monocyte precursors undergo specific polarization processes which are influenced by the local tissue environment: classically-activated (M1) macrophages, with a pro-inflammatory activity and a role of effector cells in Th1 cellular immune responses, and alternatively-… |

We study in what sense one can determine the flux functions k = k(x) and f = f(u), k piecewise constant, in the scalar hyperbolic conservation law u(t) + (k(x)f (u))(x) = 0 by observing the solution u(t, center dot) of the Cauchy problem with suitable piecewise constant initial data u vertical bar(… |

This paper is concerned with diffusive approximations of some numerical schemes for several linear (or weakly nonlinear) kinetic models which are motivated by wide-range applications, including radiative transfer or neutron transport, run-and-tumble models of chemotaxis dynamics, and Vlasov-Fokker-… |

This work deals with infinite horizon optimal growth models and uses the results in the Mercenier and Michel (1994a) paper as a starting point. Mercenier and Michel (1994a) provide a one-stage Runge-Kutta discretization of the above-mentioned models which preserves the steady state of the… |

Let X={X1,X2,...,Xm} be a system of smooth vector fields in R^n satisfying the Hörmander's finite rank condition. We prove the following Sobolev inequality with reciprocal weights in Carnot-Carathéodory space G

In this paper we investigate the permanence of a system and give a sufficient condition for the endemic equilibrium to be globally asymptotically stable, which are the remaining problems in our previous paper (G. Izzo, Y. Muroya, A. Vecchio, A general discrete time model of population dynamics in… |
