Due to cellular replication, the two partial differential equations exhibit a retardation of the maturation variable and a temporal delay depending on this maturity. We show that this model has a unique solution which is global under a classical Lipschitz condition. We also obtain the positivity of the solutions and the local and global stability of the trivial equilibrium.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2009-04-16T12:02:03.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "cellular proliferation", "nonlinear model", "positivity", "nonlinear partial differential equations", "global stability" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2009arXiv0904.2473A" } } }
