Title: Reaction-diffusion models in ecology and evolution

Speaker: Adrian Lam

Abstract: In this talk, I will discuss the following: (i) Some outstanding mathematical problems surrounding the evolution of dispersal (Conjecture of Dockery et al., ideal free distribution and relation with Nash equilibrium); (ii) the Fisher-KPP problem in shifting climate conditions. If time allows, I will also discuss (iii) mathematical problems arising from some recent experiments with competing strains of C. elegans.

Note: This is part of the Invitations to Mathematics lecture series given each year in Autumn Semester. Pre-candidacy PhD students can sign up for this lecture series by registering for one or two credit hours of Math 6193 with Professor Nimish Shah.
