MA 664
Mathematical Biology
An introduction to the use of dynamical systems for the
purpose of studying biological systems, with an emphasis on
deterministic models. Models will be chosen from ecology and
epidemiology. Attention will be devoted to both the
construction and the analysis of the models. Mathematical
analysis will involve linear algebra, differential equations and
techniques from stability theory.
Prerequisites: MA505 or MA660 or equivalent.
Exclusions: MA365, MA464, MA665, or equivalent.
