2013-Herald-EtAl-Simple Climate Models to Illustrate How Bifurcations Can Alter Equilibria and Stability

2011-Gaff-Lenhart-Use of optimal control models to predict treatment time for managing tick-borne disease
Tick-borne diseases have been on the rise recently, and correspondingly, there is an increased interest in implementing control measures to decrease the risk. Optimal control provides an ideal tool to identify the best method for reducing risk.

2015-Carl_Lutzer-Using Expected Value to Introduce the Laplace Transform
We propose an introduction to the Laplace transform in which Riemann sums are used to approximate the expected net change in a function, assuming that it quantifies a process that can terminate at random.

2015-Sebesyen-Farago-Invasive Species Model with Linear Rat Harvesting on Easter Island
In this paper we suggest a natural modification of this model. Namely, we will investigate the case where the amount of the rats is decreased due to some external factor, e.g., exterminations by the people.
