Summary
Examines a nonlinear system of parabolic partial differential equations (PDE) arising in mathematical biology and statistical mechanics. This book describes the mathematical and physical principles: derivation of a series of equations, biological modeling based on biased random walks, and quantized blowup mechanism based on several PDE techniques
