[ Abstract ]
Allergen immunotherapy is a method to treat allergic symptoms, for example rhinitis and sneezing in Japanese cedar pollen allergy (JCPA). In the immunotherapy of JCPA, patients take in a small amount of pollen over several years, which suppress severe allergic symptoms when exposed to a large amount of environmental pollen after the therapy. We develop a simple mathematical model to identify the condition for successful therapy. We consider the dynamics of type 2 T helper cells (Th2) and regulatory T cells (Treg) and both of them are differentiated from naive T cells. We assume that Treg cells have a much longer lifespan than Th2 cells, which makes Treg cells accumulate over many years during the therapy.
We regard that the therapy is successful if (1) without therapy the patient develops allergic symptoms upon exposure to the environmental pollen, (2) the patient does not develop allergic symptoms caused by the therapy itself, and (3) with therapy the patient does not develop symptoms upon exposure. We find the conditions of each parameter for successful therapy. We also find that the therapy of linearly increasing dose is able to reduce the risk of allergic symptoms caused by the therapy itself, rather than constant dose. We would like to consider application of this model to other kind of allergy, such as food allergy.

The ecological dynamics of non-polio enteroviruses: Case studies from China and Japan (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
As we approach global eradication of poliovirus (Enterovirus C species), its relatives are rapidly emerging as public health threats. One of these viruses, Enterovirus A71 (EV-A71), has been implicated in large outbreaks of hand, foot, and mouth disease (HFMD), a childhood illness that has had a substantial burden throughout East and Southeast Asia over the past fifteen years. HFMD is typically a self-limiting disease, but a small proportion of EV-A71 infections lead to the development of neurological and systemic complications that can be fatal. EV-A71 also exhibits puzzling spatial characteristics: the virus circulates at low levels worldwide, but has so far been endemic and associated with severe disease exclusively in Asia. In this talk, I will present findings from a recent study that we did to characterize the transmission dynamics of HFMD in China, where over one million cases are reported each year. I will then describe recent efforts to explain the observed multi-annual cyclicity of EV-A71 incidence in Japan and to probe the contributions of other serotypes to the observed burden of HFMD. In closing, I will discuss plans for unifying data and modeling to study this heterogeneity in the endemicity of EV-A71, as well as to broadly better understand the spatial and viral dynamics of this group of infections.

Dual role of delay effect in a tumor immune system (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
In this talk, a previous tumor immune interaction model is simplified by considering a relatively weak immune activation, which can still keep the essential dynamics properties. Since the immune activation process is not instantaneous, we incorporate one delay effect for the activation of the effector cells by helper T cells into the model. Furthermore, we investigate the stability and instability region of the tumor-presence equilibrium state of the delay-induced system with respect to two parameters, the activation rate of effector cells by helper T cells and the helper T cells stimulation rate by the presence of identified tumor antigens. We show the dual role of this delay that can induce stability switches exhibiting destabilization as well as stabilization of the tumor-presence equilibrium. Besides, our results show that the appropriate immune activation time plays a significant role in control of tumor growth.

Xiao Dongyuan (Graduate School of Mathematical Sciences, The University of Tokyo)
A variational problem associated with the minimal speed of traveling waves for the spatially
periodic KPP equation (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
We consider a spatially periodic KPP equation of the form
$$u_t=u_{xx}+b(x)u(1-u).$$
This equation is motivated by a model in mathematical ecology describing the invasion of an alien species into spatially periodic habitat. We deal with the following variational problem:
$$\underset{b\in A_i}{\mbox{Maximize}}\ \ c^*(b),\ i=1,2,$$
where $c^*(b)$ denotes the minimal speed of the traveling wave of the above equation, and sets $A_1$, $A_2$ are defined by
$$A_1:=\{b\ |\ \int_0^Lb=\alpha L,||b||_{\infty}\le h \},$$
$$A_2:=\{b\ |\ \int_0^Lb^2=\beta L\},$$
with $h>\alpha>0$ and $\beta>0$ being arbitrarily given constants. It is known that $c^*(b)$ is given by the principal eigenvalue $k(\lambda,b)$ associated with the one-dimensional elliptic operator under the periodic boundary condition:
$$-L_{\lambda,b}\psi=-\frac{d^2}{dx^2}\psi-2\lambda\frac{d}{dx}\psi-(b(x)
+\lambda^2)\psi\ \ (x\in\mathbb{R}/L\mathbb{Z}).$$
It is important to note that, in one-dimensional reaction-diffusion equations, the minimal speed $c^*(b)$ coincides with the so-called spreading speed. The notion of spreading speed was introduced in mathematical ecology to describe how fast the invading species expands its territory. In other words, our goal is to find an optimal coefficient $b(x)$ that gives the fastest spreading speed under certain given constraints and to study the properties of such $b(x)$.

Lev Idels (Vanvouver Island University)
Delayed Models of Cancer Dynamics: Lessons Learned in Mathematical Modelling (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
In general, delay differential equations provide a richer mathematical
framework (compared with ordinary differential equations) for the
analysis of biosystems dynamics. The inclusion of explicit time lags in
tumor growth models allows direct reference to experimentally measurable
and/or controllable cell growth characteristics. For three different
types of angiogenesis models with variable delays, we consider either
continuous or impulse therapy that eradicates tumor cells and suppresses
angiogenesis. It was shown that with the growth of delays, even
constant, the equilibrium can lose its stability, and sustainable
oscillation, as well as chaotic behavior, can be observed. The analysis
outlines the difficulties which occur in the case of unbounded growth
rates, such as classical Gompertz model, for small volumes of cancer
cells compared to available blood vessels. The Wheldon model (1975) of a
Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia (CML) dynamics is revisited in the light of
recent discovery that this model has a major drawback.

[ Abstract ]
We discuss the problem of approximating stability radius appearing
in the design procedure of finite-dimensional stabilizing controllers
for an infinite-dimensional dynamical system. The calculation of
stability radius needs the value of the H-infinity norm of a transfer
function whose realization is described by infinite-dimensional
operators in a Hilbert space. From the practical point of view, we
need to prepare a family of approximate finite-dimensional operators
and then to calculate the H-infinity norm of their transfer functions.
However, it is not assured that they converge to the value of the
H-infinity norm of the original transfer function. The purpose of
this study is to justify the convergence. In a numerical example,
we treat parabolic distributed parameter systems with distributed
control and distributed/boundary observation.

Fugo TAKASU (Nara Women's University)
Spatial population dynamics as a point pattern dynamics (JAPANESE)
[ Abstract ]
Spatial population dynamics has been conventionally described as
dynamical system where population size (or population density) changes
with time over space as a continuous "real-valued" variable; these are
often given as partial differential equations as reaction-diffusion
models. In this approach, we implicitly assume infinitely large
population thereby population size changes smoothly and
deterministically. In reality, however, a population is a collection of
a certain number of individuals each of which gives birth or dies with
some stochasticity in a space and the population size as the number of
individuals is "integer-valued". In this talk, I introduce an approach
to reconstruct conventional spatial population dynamics in terms of
point pattern dynamics as a stochastic process. I discuss how to
mathematically describe such spatial stochastic processes using the
moments of increasing order of dimension; densities of points, pairs,
and triplets, etc. are described by integro-differential equations.
Quantification of a point pattern is the key issue here. As examples, I
introduce spatial epidemic SIS and SIR models as point pattern dynamics;
each individual has a certain "mark" depending on its health status; a
snapshot of individuals’ distribution over space is represented by a
marked point pattern and this marked point pattern dynamically changes
with time.

[ Abstract ]
Estimating the periodicity of outbreaks is sometimes equivalent to the
prediction of future outbreaks. However, the periodicity may change
over time so understanding the mechanism of outbreak periodicity is
important. So far, mathematical modeling studies suggest several
drivers for outbreak periodicity including, 1) environmental factors
(e.g. temperature) and 2) host behavior (contact patterns between host
individuals). Among many diseases, multiple determinants can be
considered to cause the outbreak periodicity and it is difficult to
understand the periodicity quantitatively. Here we introduce our case
study of Mycoplasma pneumoniae (MP) which shows three to five year
periodic outbreaks, with multiple candidates for determinants for the
outbreak periodicity being narrowed down to the last one, the variance
of the length of the immunity duration. To our knowledge this is the
first study showing that the variance in the length of the immunity
duration is essential for the periodicity of the outbreaks.

Estimating the seroincidence of pertussis in Japan
[ Abstract ]
Despite relatively high vaccination coverage of pertussis for decades, the disease keeps circulating among both vaccinated and unvaccinated individuals and a periodic large epidemic is observed every 4 years. To understand the transmission dynamics, specific immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies against pertussis toxin (PT) have been routinely measured in Japan. Using the cross-sectional serological survey data with a known decay rate of antibody titres as a function of time since infection, we estimate the age-dependent seroincidence of pertussis. The estimated incidence of pertussis declined with age, the shape of which will be extremely useful for reconstructing the transmission dynamics and considering effective countermeasures.

[ Abstract ]
In the stochastic SIS epidemic model with a contact rate a,
a recovery rate b
infinity. We consider the more realistic case where the contact rate
a(t) is a periodic function whose average is bigger than b. Then (log
T)/N converges to a new limit C, which is linked to a time-periodic
Hamilton-Jacobi equation. When a(t) is a cosine function with small
amplitude or high (resp. low) frequency, approximate formulas for C
can be obtained analytically following the method used in [Assaf et
al. (2008) Population extinction in a time-modulated environment. Phys
Rev E 78, 041123]. These results are illustrated by numerical
simulations.
