Invented by J. Monod, and independently by A. Novick and L. Szilard, in 1950, the
chemostat is both a micro-organism culturing device and an abstracted ecosystem managed …

Although mathematical modelling has reached a degree of maturity in the last decades,
microbial ecology is still develo**, albeit at a rapid pace thanks to new insights provided …

This paper presents a hypothesis allowing us to explain the coexistence of several species
(here micro-organisms) in competition on a single resource (called a substrate) in a …

This paper deals with a two-microbial species model in competition for a single-resource in
the chemostat including general intra-and interspecific density-dependent growth rates with …

In this work, we study a model of the chemostat where the species are present in two forms,
isolated and aggregated individuals, such as attached bacteria or bacteria in flocks. We …

Although mutualisms are often studied as simple pairwise interactions, they typically involve
complex networks of interacting species. How multiple mutualistic partners that provide the …

We study a model of the chemostat with several species in competition for a single resource.
We take into account the intra-specific interactions between individuals of the same …

In this paper, we discuss the competition of two species for a single essential growth-limiting
nutriment with viral infection that affects only the first species. Although the classical models …

We study a chemostat model in which two microbial species grow on a single resource. We
show that species coexistence is possible when the species which would normally win the …

The conformal infinity of a quaternionic-Kähler metric on a 4nmanifold with boundary is a
codimension 3 distribution on the boundary called quaternionic contact. In dimensions 4n− 1 …
