Mathematical Modeling of Collective Behavior in Socio-Economic and Life Sciences

Mathematical modeling using dynamical systems and partial differential equations is now playing an increasing role in the understanding of complex multi-scale phenomena. Behavior in seemingly different areas such as sociology, economics, and the life sciences can be described by closely related mode...
