• #### Lagged and instantaneous dynamical influences related to brain structural connectivity ﻿

(2015-12-31)
Contemporary neuroimaging methods can shed light on the basis of human neural and cognitive specializations, with important implications for neuroscience and medicine. Indeed, different MRI acquisitions provide different ...
• #### Large-scale simulations of synthetic markets ﻿

(2015-10-08)
High-frequency trading has been experiencing an increase of interest both for practical purposes within nancial institutions and within academic research; recently, the UK Government O ce for Science reviewed the state ...
• #### A least-squares implicit RBF-FD closest point method and applications to PDEs on moving surfaces ﻿

(2018-10)
The closest point method (Ruuth and Merriman, J. Comput. Phys. 227(3):1943-1961, [2008]) is an embedding method developed to solve a variety of partial differential equations (PDEs) on smooth surfaces, using a closest point ...
• #### Longitudinal variations of brain functional connectivity: A case report study based on a mouse model of epilepsy ﻿

(2015-12-31)
Brain Functional Connectivity (FC) quantifies statistical dependencies between areas of the brain. FC has been widely used to address altered function of brain circuits in control conditions compared to different pathological ...
• #### Mathematical models for glioma growth and migration inside the brain ﻿

(2021-01)
Gliomas are the most prevalent, aggressive, and invasive subtype of primary brain tumors, characterized by rapid cell proliferation and great infiltration capacity. De- spite the advances of clinical research, these tumors ...
• #### Meta-modeling on detailed geography for accurate prediction of invasive alien species dispersal ﻿

(2019-11-07)
Invasive species are recognized as a significant threat to biodiversity. The mathematical modeling of their spatio-temporal dynamics can provide significant help to environmental managers in devising suitable control ...
• #### Modeling cardiac structural heterogeneity via space-fractional differential equations ﻿

(2017)
We discuss here the use of non-local models in space and fractional order operators in the characterisation of structural complexity and the modeling of propagation in heterogeneous biological tissues. In the specific, we ...
• #### Modeling COVID-19: Challenges and results ﻿

(2020-10)
Weird times we are living in. While lots of technological, medical and scientific advances are generated in a short period of time, we are now fighting a pandemic, trying to stop the spread of a new virus that has not only ...
• #### Modeling dengue immune responses mediated by antibodies: A qualitative study ﻿

(2021-09-01)
Dengue fever is a viral mosquito-borne infection and a major international public health concern. With 2.5 billion people at risk of acquiring the infection around the world, disease severity is influenced by the immunological ...

• #### Modelling COVID 19 in the Basque Country from introduction to control measure response ﻿

(2020-10)
In March 2020, a multidisciplinary task force (so‐called Basque Modelling Task Force, BMTF) was created to assist the Basque health managers and Government during the COVID‐19 responses. BMTF is a modelling team, working ...
• #### A multiscale network-based model of contagion dynamics: heterogeneity, spatial distancing and vaccination ﻿

(2021)
Lockdown and vaccination policies have been the major concern in the last year in order to contain the SARS-CoV-2 infection during the COVID-19 pandemic. In this paper we present a model able to evaluate alternative lockdown ...
• #### Numerical approximations for fractional elliptic equations via the method of semigroups ﻿

(2020)
We provide a novel approach to the numerical solution of the family of nonlocal elliptic equations $(-\Delta)^su=f$ in $\Omega$, subject to some homogeneous boundary conditions $\mathcal{B}(u)=0$ on $\partial \Omega$, where ...
• #### Numerical simulation of a susceptible-exposed-infectious space-continuous model for the spread of rabies in raccoons across a realistic landscape ﻿

(2013-12-31)
We introduce a numerical model for the spread of a lethal infectious disease in wildlife. The reference model is a Susceptible-Exposed-Infectious system where the spatial component of the dynamics is modelled by a diffusion ...
