A simple model of HIV epidemic in Italy: The role of the antiretroviral treatment by Federico Papa, Francesca Binda, Giovanni Felici, Marco Franzetti, Alberto Gandolfi, Carmela Sinisgalli, Claudia Balotta

“…The benefits of this change in the treatment eligibility consist in reducing the HIV incidence rate, the rate of new AIDS cases, and the rate of death from AIDS. Analytical results about properties of the model in its time-invariant form are provided, in particular the global stability of the equilibrium points is established either in the absence and in the presence of infected among immigrants.…”

Integrability of derivations of classical solutions of Dirichlet's problem for an elliptic equation by M. I. Hassan

“…The present work is concerned with integrability properties of derivatives of classical solutions of Dirichlet's problem for a linear second-order elliptic equation Lu=f. With the aid of special weighted Hilbert spaces of locally square integrable functions, we determine the nature of singularities that f can have near the boundary, in order that such classical solutions are in the Sobolev space W1. …”
