Phenotypic equilibrium as probabilistic convergence in multi-phenotype cell population dynamics.

We consider the cell population dynamics with n different phenotypes. Both the Markovian branching process model (stochastic model) and the ordinary differential equation (ODE) system model (deterministic model) are presented, and exploited to investigate the dynamics of the phenotypic proportions....
