Effect of prey‐taxis and diffusion on positive steady states for a predator‐prey system

In this paper, we consider a generalized predator‐prey system with prey‐taxis under the Neumann boundary condition. We investigate the local and global asymptotical stability of constant steady states (including trivial, semitrivial, and interior constant steady states). On the basis of a priori estimate and the fixed‐point index theory, several sufficient conditions for the nonexistence/existence of nonconstant positive solutions are given.     

Periodic solution and global stability for a nonautonomous competitive Lotka-Volterra diffusion system

The periodic solution and global stability for a nonautonomous competitive Lotka-Volterra diffusion system is considered in this paper. By using of Brouwer fixed point theorem and constructing a suitable Liapunov function, under some appropriate conditions, the system has a unique periodic solution which is globally stable.     

Asymptotic stability of one prey and two predators model with two functional responses

We formulate a mathematical model to study the complex dynamical behavior of a three dimensional model consisting of one prey and two predators involving Beddington–DeAngelis and Crowley–Martin functional responses. The existence and stability conditions of the equilibrium points are analyzed. The global asymptotic stability of the interior equilibrium point, if exists, is proved by considering Lyapunov function. Several numerical simulations are performed to illustrate the theoretical analysis. The multiple states of stability are observed in one example whereas another example exhibits the global stability of interior equilibrium point.

DYNAMICAL CONSISTENCE IN 3-DIMENSIONAL TYPE-K COMPETITIVE LOTKA-VOLTERRA SYSTEM

A 3-dimensional type-K competitive Lotka-Volterra system is considered in this paper. Two discretization schemes are applied to the system with an positive interior fixed point, and two corresponding discrete systems are obtained. By analyzing the local dynamics of the corresponding discrete system near the interior fixed point, it is showed that this system is not dynamically consistent with the continuous counterpart system.     

Global stability and bifurcations of perturbed Gumowski–Mira difference equation

A generalized convergence theorem for higher order difference equations is established by quasi-Lyapunov function method. From this stability result we deduce the existence of global asymptotically stable fixed point and attractive two-periodic solution of the perturbed Gumowski–Mira difference equation. We also study global bifurcations of this system as the parameters vary. For instance we show that as the recombination coefficient moves through a critical curve, a fixed point loses its asymptotic stability and an attractive cycle of period 2 emerges near the fixed point due to a period-doubling bifurcation. The associated existence regions are also located.     

A note on global stability of three-dimensional Ricker models

In the recent paper [E. C. Balreira, S. Elaydi, and R. Luís, J. Differ. Equ. Appl. 23 (2017), pp. 2037–2071], Balreira, Elaydi and Luís established a good criterion for competitive mappings to have a globally asymptotically stable interior fixed point by a geometric approach. This criterion can be applied to three dimensional Kolmogorov competitive mappings on a monotone region with a carrying simplex whose planar fixed points are saddles but globally asymptotically stable on their positive coordinate planes. For three dimensional Ricker models, they found mild conditions on parameters such that the criterion can be applied to. Observing that Balreira, Elaydi and Luís' discussion is still valid for the monotone region with piecewise smooth boundary, we prove in this note that the interior fixed point of three dimensional Kolmogorov competitive mappings is globally asymptotically stable if they admit a carrying simplex and three planar fixed points which are saddles but globally asymptotically stable on their positive coordinate planes. This result is much easier to apply in the application.     

Fixed point approach for weakly asymptotic stability of fractional differential inclusions involving impulsive effects

We prove the global solvability and weakly asymptotic stability for a semilinear fractional differential inclusion subject to impulsive effects by analyzing behavior of its solutions on the half-line. Our analysis is based on a fixed point principle for condensing multi-valued maps, which is employed for solution operator acting on the space of piecewise continuous functions. The obtained results will be applied to a lattice fractional differential system.

近年来,动态多路径路由下网络速率控制的研究受到广泛关注.本文提出了一个新的速率控制和多路径路由联合的算法,该算法的特点是具有唯一的平衡点.利用传统的Lyapunov方法,我们证明算法在没有传播时延情形下的全局稳定性.而且,更为重要的是,即使考虑传播时延,在一定的条件下,该算法是局部稳定的.在平衡点处,每条路由上的速率非零.这一事实不但去掉了Kelly F P,Voice T(2005)结果中内部平衡点的假设条件,而且也可以理解为一种探测机制.我们通过仿真证实了算法的正确性,同时仿真结果也表明局部稳定性的吸引域可以很大,甚至是全局稳定的.     

A polynomial path-following interior point algorithm for general linear complementarity problems

Linear Complementarity Problems (LCPs) belong to the class of \mathbbNP{\mathbb{NP}} -complete problems. Therefore we cannot expect a polynomial time solution method for LCPs without requiring some special property of the coefficient matrix. Our aim is to construct interior point algorithms which, according to the duality theorem in EP (Existentially Polynomial-time) form, in polynomial time either give a solution of the original problem or detects the lack of property P_*([(k)\tilde]){\mathcal{P}_*(\tilde\kappa)} , with arbitrary large, but apriori fixed [(k)\tilde]{\tilde\kappa}). In the latter case, the algorithms give a polynomial size certificate depending on parameter [(k)\tilde]{\tilde{\kappa}} , the initial interior point and the input size of the LCP). We give the general idea of an EP-modification of interior point algorithms and adapt this modification to long-step path-following interior point algorithms.     

Stability and attractivity of periodic solutions of parabolic systems with time delays

This paper is concerned with the existence, stability, and global attractivity of time-periodic solutions for a class of coupled parabolic equations in a bounded domain. The problem under consideration includes coupled system of parabolic and ordinary differential equations, and time delays may appear in the nonlinear reaction functions. Our approach to the problem is by the method of upper and lower solutions and its associated monotone iterations. The existence of time-periodic solutions is for a class of locally Lipschitz continuous reaction functions without any quasimonotone requirement using Schauder fixed point theorem, while the stability and attractivity analysis is for quasimonotone nondecreasing and mixed quasimonotone reaction functions using the monotone iterative scheme. The results for the general system are applied to the standard parabolic equations without time delay and to the corresponding ordinary differential system. Applications are also given to three Lotka-Volterra reaction diffusion model problems, and in each problem a sufficient condition on the reaction rates is obtained to ensure the stability and global attractivity of positive periodic solutions.     

Periodic nonautonomous differential equations with noninstantaneous impulsive effects

In this paper, we study a new class of periodic nonautonomous differential equations with periodic noninstantaneous impulsive effects. A concept of noninstantaneous impulsive Cauchy matrix is introduced, and some basic properties are considered. We give the representation of solutions to the homogeneous problem and nonhomogeneous problem by using noninstantaneous impulsive Cauchy matrix, and the variation of constants method, adjoint systems, and periodicity of solutions is verified under standard periodicity conditions. Further, we show the existence and uniqueness of solutions of semilinear problem and establish existence result for periodic solutions via Brouwer fixed point theorem and uniqueness and global asymptotic stability via Banach fixed point theorem.     

A free boundary problem for two-species competitive model in ecology

This paper deals with a free boundary problem which is used to describe the two-species competitive model in ecology. The existence and uniqueness of a global classical solution are given by invoking the Schauder fixed point theorem. We study the evolution of the free boundary problem and show that the free boundary problem is well posed.     

On the finite-dimensional dynamical systems with limited competition

The asymptotic behavior of dynamical systems with limited competition is investigated. We study index theory for fixed points, permanence, global stability, convergence everywhere and coexistence. It is shown that the system has a globally asymptotically stable fixed point if every fixed point is hyperbolic and locally asymptotically stable relative to the face it belongs to. A nice result is the necessary and sufficient conditions for the system to have a globally asymptotically stable positive fixed point. It can be used to establish the sufficient conditions for the system to persist uniformly and the convergence result for all orbits. Applications are made to time-periodic ordinary differential equations and reaction-diffusion equations.

     

Stability results for stochastic delayed recurrent neural networks with discrete and distributed delays

We present new conditions for asymptotic stability and exponential stability of a class of stochastic recurrent neural networks with discrete and distributed time varying delays. Our approach is based on the method using fixed point theory, which do not resort to any Liapunov function or Liapunov functional. Our results neither require the boundedness, monotonicity and differentiability of the activation functions nor differentiability of the time varying delays. In particular, a class of neural networks without stochastic perturbations is also considered. Examples are given to illustrate our main results.     

Stability results for nonlinear functional differential equations using fixed point methods

We present new conditions for stability of the zero solution for three distinct classes of scalar nonlinear delay differential equations. Our approach is based on fixed point methods and has the advantage that our conditions neither require boundedness of delays nor fixed sign conditions on the coefficient functions. Our work extends and improves a number of recent stability results for nonlinear functional differential equations in a unified framework. A number of examples are given to illustrate our main results.     

Simple discrete-time malarial models

We investigate dynamics of mosquito population models under two assumptions, respectively, and then formulate simple discrete-time compartmental susceptible-exposed-infective-recovered models for the malaria transmission based on the mosquito population models. We show that the mosquito population models either have robust dynamics or exhibit period-doubling bifurcation depending on the model assumptions. We derive a formula for the reproductive number of infection for the malaria model, which determines the stability of the infection-free fixed point. We then determine the existence of endemic fixed points for the malaria models. Using numerical simulations, we demonstrate that the dynamical characteristics of the mosquito populations, such as the global stability of the endemic fixed point and the appearance of a period-doubling bifurcation, are reflected in the dynamics of the malaria transmission.     

Global attractivity results for nonlinear functional integral equations via a Krasnoselskii type fixed point theorem

In this paper, two results concerning the global attractivity and global asymptotic attractivity of the solutions for a nonlinear functional integral equation are proved via a variant of the Krasnoselskii fixed point theorem due to Dhage [B.C. Dhage, A fixed point theorem in Banach algebras with applications to functional integral equations, Kyungpook Math. J. 44 (2004) 145–155]. The investigations are placed in the Banach space of real functions defined, continuous and bounded on an unbounded interval. A couple of examples are indicated for demonstrating the natural realizations of the abstract results presented in the paper. Our results generalize the attractivity results of Banas and Rzepka [J. Banas, B. Rzepka, An application of measures of noncompactness in the study of asymptotic stability, Appl. Math. Lett. 16 (2003) 1–6] and Banas and Dhage [J. Banas, B.C. Dhage, Global asymptotic stability of solutions of a functional integral equations, Nonlinear Anal. (2007), doi:10.1016/j.na.2007.07.038], under weaker conditions with a different method.     

Modeling and analysis of a prey–predator system with disease in the prey

A three dimensional ecoepidemiological model consisting of susceptible prey, infected prey and predator is proposed and analysed in the present work. The parameter delay is introduced in the model system for considering the time taken by a susceptible prey to become infected. Mathematically we analyze the dynamics of the system such as, boundedness of the solutions, existence of non-negative equilibria, local and global stability of interior equilibrium point. Next we choose delay as a bifurcation parameter to examine the existence of the Hopf bifurcation of the system around its interior equilibrium. Moreover we use the normal form method and center manifold theorem to investigate the direction of the Hopf bifurcation and stability of the bifurcating limit cycle. Some numerical simulations are carried out to support the analytical results.
