Global stability of solutions to a free boundary problem of ductal carcinoma in situ. (English) Zbl 1330.35548

Summary: In the paper, we present some remarks on the global stability of steady state solutions to a free boundary model studied by Y. Xu [Discrete Contin. Dyn. Syst., Ser. B 4, No. 1, 337–348 (2004; Zbl 1050.35158)] and also prove some new results of global stability of steady state solutions to the model.
