Book Summary

Bringing new contributions to science might be challenging, however, this is our path to evolution. We cannot assume that we know everything, but it is only our curiosity that can lead us to answers. Therefore, we can and we should keep trying, seeking new and different paths. There is always a starting point: asking yourself „Why?”, and the answer will follow…

The purpose of the present book is the study of some mathematical models of cell dynamics and convex optimization problems applied to chronic myeloid leukemia, a type of leukemia also known as chronic myelogenous leukemia. We take into consideration basic concepts, methods and results from the theory of differential equations, such as: existence, uniqueness, monotonicity, boundedness, continuous dependence on data and stability of solutions.
