Outline of Final Research Achievements

We developed a new mathematical model for describing fish migration along 1-D rivers or connected graphs based on the optimal control theory. We showed that the derivation of the migration strategy reduces to finding a solution to a Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation: a nonlinear degenerate parabolic partial differential equation. We also showed that the equation admits a viscosity solution and discussed its practical implications. Accurate numerical schemes for stable computation of the HJB equation has also been developed in the project. In addition, macroscopic mathematical models for population dynamics of Plecoglossus altivelis (Ayu) in river environment was established and applied to finding cost-effective management of the fish population.
