Current Research Interests
- Invariant manifolds for Kolmogorov equations
- Curvature of Invariant Manifolds
- Difference Equations
- Quasilinkage Equilibrium in Genetics
- Global stability for ecological systems
- Monotone dynamical systems
Figures: Invariant manifolds for Lotka-Volterra systems. Last figure is a non-competitive example. Local stability is related to curvature of the manifold at a fixed point.
