Outline of Final Research Achievements

Mutual effects between microorganisms and external factors such as bacteria or fungi and carbon sources, or virus and hosts were studied in mathematical frameworks. In study of microbial depolymerization processes, inverse problems of models for weight distribution and population of microorganisms were analyzed numerically, and microbial depolymerization processes were numerically simulated. Moreover, infection processes of bird flu within a poultry farm were also studied mathematically.
