Research Descriptions

Dr. Chow's major research fields are Probability Theory and its applications. His recent research focuses on the evolutionary games and difference equations arising from mathematical biology like the Leslie-Gower competition system. The goal is to study whether species under competition can coexist or only one species can survive.
