Analysis/solution<br />
Overview<br />
Moment equations, with choices<br />
More general challenges<br />
References<br />
Kernel choices: Laplacian, modied Bessel, top hat (Birch<br />
and Young, 2006; Ovaskainen and Cornell, 2006)): compact<br />
support works<br />
Dimensionality<br />
Parameter choices: length scale (competition vs dispersal vs<br />
environment), eective neighborhood size<br />
Fourier or Hankel trans<strong>for</strong>m often simplies analysis (but again<br />
depends on closure)<br />
