Stochastic dynamics of a nonlinear tumor-immune competitive system
摘要
The paper uses nine coupled ordinary differential equations (ODEs) to describe a tumor-immune competitive system. The model is then reduced to four nonlinear coupled ODEs, encompassing tumor cells, cytotoxic T-lymphocytes, macrophages, and dendritic cells by utilizing quasi-steady-state approximations. We explore the dynamics of biologically feasible steady states and their local stability analysis. We introduce stochastic fluctuation terms into the deterministic system to account for uncertainty and variability in the tumor-immune interaction system. The uniqueness and existence of our stochastic system is established by applying It
