Transport Equations in Biology [electronic resource] /
Perthame, Benoît.author.
Presents models written as partial differential equations and originating from various questions in population biology, such as physiologically structured equations, and bacterial movement. This work develops appropriate mathematical tools and qualitative properties of the solutions. It also describes generalized relative entropy method.
