10 Did something change ? Thresholds in Population Models
نویسنده
چکیده
The goal of this article is to illustrate several interesting bifurcations that can arise in population biology. These are of interest since it is often through bifurcation phenomena that changes significant enough to be measured occur. For example, a minor change in some environmental parameter can cause a system to change from being at rest to oscillating. We illustrate here the role of several canonical types of bifurcations in population modeling.

Oligopoly with Capacity Constraints and Thresholds
Abstract Extended Oligopoly models will be introduced and examined in which the firms might face capacity limits, thresholds for minimal and maximal moves, and antitrust thresholds in the case of partial cooperation. Similar situation occurs when there is an additional cost of output adjustment, which is discontinuous at zero due to set-up costs. In these cases the payoff functions of the...

This study aims to evaluate the efficiency of the concentration-number (C-N) fractal model for discrimination of soil horizon regarding the depth distribution profile. In this regard, soil parameters such as pH, organic carbon content, calcareous mineral content, electrical conductivity and available phosphorus of Ziarat forestland in Golestan Province, north of Iran, has been investigated. The...
