Nonlinear Systems Of Partial Differential Equations : Applications To Life And Physical Sciences.
The book presents the theory of diffusion-reaction equations starting from the Volterra-Lotka systems developed in the eighties for Dirichlet boundary conditions. It uses the analysis of applicable systems of partial differential equations as a starting point for studying upper-lower solutions, bifu...
