In this paper, taking explicit account of the incubation periods of parasites within the human and the mosquito, we first propose a delayed Ross-Macdonald model. Then we ca...

abstract：:The nonlinear response of the simplest irreversible Michaelis-Menten enzyme is considered. In the context of metabolic networks, i.e. in vivo, the enzyme is subject to sustained, frequently time-dependent, input fluxes that keep the system out of equilibrium. The connection between the fluxes and the response is inves...
