This volume presents mathematical developments on the subject of neutron transport equations. Several different themes are dealt with including regularity of velocity averages, spectral analysis, inverse problems arising in the stochastic theory of neutron chain fissions, Myadera perturbations of Co-semigroups on Banach spaces and their applications to singular neutron transport equations, compactness properties of positive (Co)-semigroups on Banach lattices and their applications to transport theory, the analysis of leading eigenelements and scattering theory. Besides the problems addressed in this book, a unified treatment of the classical spectral analysis of neutron transport equations is also given Linear and Non-linear Front Selection for Reaction-Diffusion Equations (A Goriely & J Rose); Network Structure and Epidemic Waves in Metapopulation Models (V Colizza et al.); Integral Symmetry Classes of Icosahedral Viral Capsids (R Kerner); A Study of Hydrophobic Effect on the Protein Folding Using Monte Carlo (L P B Scott); Evolution in a Host-Parasite System (N F Britton); A Population Dynamics Approach to Language Evolution (J F Fontanari); Neural Network Classification with Prior Knowledge for Analysis of Biological Data (P M Pardalos et al.); Unsupervised Classification of Tree Structured Objects (A G Flesia); Mathematical Biology: Some Opportunities in Integrative Biology (R Mejia); Modeling and Simulation of the Human Eye (L P Brazil); and other papers
