The theory provides an algorithmic way to generate a sequence of non-linear coordinate changes that eliminate as much non-linearity as possible at each order (where order refers to terms in Taylors series about an orbit).The normal form is intended to be the simplest form into which any system of the intended type can be transformed by changing the coordinates in a prescribed manner. Interestingly the form of non-linear that cannot be eliminated by such coordinate changes is determined by the structure of the linear part of the vector field map. This section consists of some background knowledge, theorems and definitions necessary for understanding the concept of normal form for local dynamical systems. We briefly discuss the concept of ring of invariants and module of equivariants, and use the Groebner basis methods to compute a Groebner basis for the ideal of relations among the basic inva...

Given an matrix describe the behavior , in a neighborhood of the origin the solutions of all systems of differential equations having a rest point at the origin with the linear part Ax ii. Describe the behavior (near origin) of all systems close to a system of the type described in i above. The normal form is intended to be the ‘’simplest ‘’form in which any system of intended type can be transformed by changing the coordinates in a prescribed manner. But if a normal form is thought as the ‘’simplest’’ form into which a system can be placed there might be disagreement as to what is considered simplest. A systematic policy for deciding what accounts for simplest is called normal form style. The important normal form styles are Semisimple, Innerproduct and SL(2) Or Triad styles. The unfolding of the normal form is intended to be the simplest form in which all systems close to the original system can be transfo...

Understanding the regularities in immune response provide the researchers and clinicians new powerful tools for the simulation of immune system in order to increase its efficiency in the struggle against antigen invasion. Such general regularities are revealed, as a rule, on the basis of analysis of the main components of an organism’s vital activities along with the system of immune defense. In this connection the construction of models of immune response to an antigen irritant seems to be a right tactic in the cognition of above regularities, that is why this monograph is dedicated to the analysis of the facts accumulated in immunology as a united system on the basis of logical concepts and mathematical models. Immune response to an infection by a pathogen is supported by different populations of cells (macrophages, B cells, CD4 T cells, CD8 T cells. . .). Among the many pathogen type, we...

Competition can result either in the exclusion of one branch of the immune system, or both branches may coexist. We have examined and simulated five different immune dynamics of immune system responses; pathogen free, immunity free, CTL dominant, Antibody dominant and relative equal CTL and Antibody responses. Analytically we have established the minimum conditions required for either of the two branches of immune system to dominate or to coexist equally. We have explored how these competition dynamics can influ...
