A Tumor Growth Model with a „Butterfly” – Type Chaotic Time Attractor. Cancer Evolution Through a Traveling Waves-Type Mechanism

In this paper we propose a new tumor growth model, based on the original model developed by Anderson-Chaplain to which we attached Ivancevic’s “butterfly” time attractor. The chaotic behavior provides a more realistic perspective on tumor growth, with uncertainties and uncontrollable long term stochastic effects.
