Some results are presented of application of M-matrices to the study the stability problem of the equilibriums of differential equations used in models of living systems.
The models studied are described by differential equations with several delays, including distributed delay, and by high-dimensional systems of differential equations.
To study the stability of the equilibriums the linearization method is used. Emerging systems of linear differential equations have a specific structure of the right-hand parts,
which allows to effectively use the properties of M-matrices. As examples, the results of studies of models arising in immunology, epidemiology and ecology are presented.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
