Two theorems on singularly perturbed semigroups with applications to models of applied mathematics (Q414730)

From the abstract: We present two theorems on convergence of semigroups related to singularly perturbed abstract Cauchy problems, and apply them to some recent models of applied mathematics. The semigroups considered are related to piecewise deterministic Markov processes jumping between several copies of a rectangle in \({\mathbf R}^M\) and moving along deterministic integral curves of some ODEs between jumps. Our theorems describe the limit behavior of the processes in the cases of frequent jumps and of fast motions in the direction of chosen variables. These results are motivated by the Kepler-Elston's model of gene regulation and Lipniacki's model of gene expression. Application to other models, including those of mathematical economics, are also discussed.
