In this thesis, we perform a systematic study of the Allee effect in cancer stem cell (CSC) models with an application to non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Previously, it was shown that an Allee effect exists in mathematical tumor growth models incorporating cancer stem cell (CSC) dynamics....

Sexual reproduction and dispersal are often coupled in organisms mixing sexual and asexual reproduction, such as fungi. The aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of mate limitation on the spreading speed of fungal plant parasites. Starting from a simple model with two coupled partial...

We investigate the inside dynamics of solutions to integrodifference equations to understand the genetic consequences of a population with nonoverlapping generations undergoing range expansion. To obtain the inside dynamics, we decompose the solution into neutral genetic components. The inside...
