Relaxation Oscillations in a Class of Predator-prey Systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
We consider a class of three dimensional, singularly perturbed predator-prey systems having two predators competing exploitatively for the same prey in a constant environment. By using dynamical systems techniques and the geometric singular perturbation theory, we give precise conditions which guarantee the existence of stable relaxation oscillations for systems within the class. Such result shows the coexistence of the predators and the prey with quite diversified time response which typically happens when the prey population grows much faster than those of predators. As an application, a well-known model will be discussed in detail by showing the existence of stable relaxation oscillations for a wide range of parameters values of the model.

متن کاملStability analysis of a fractional order prey-predator system with nonmonotonic functional response
In this paper, we introduce fractional order of a planar fractional prey-predator system with a nonmonotonic functional response and anti-predator behaviour such that the adult preys can attack vulnerable predators. We analyze the existence and stability of all possible equilibria. Numerical simulations reveal that anti-predator behaviour not only makes the coexistence of the prey and predator ...
متن کاملNoise-controlled relaxation oscillations in ratio-dependent predator–prey models
A class of (N+1)-species ratio-dependent predator–prey stochastic models, which consists of one predator population and N prey populations (or N subpopulations of a prey metapopulation), is considered. The influence of a fluctuating environment on the carrying capacities of prey populations is modeled as a dichotomous noise. The study is a follow-up of a previous investigation of the above clas...
متن کاملProfile of the unique limit cycle in a class of general predator-prey systems
Many predator–prey systems with oscillatory behavior possess a unique limit cycle which is globally asymptotically stable. For a class of general predator–prey system, we show that the solution orbit of the limit cycle exhibits the temporal pattern of a relaxation oscillator, when a certain parameter is small. 2014 Elsevier Inc.

متن کاملThe Stability of Some Systems of Harvested Lotka-Volterra Predator-Prey Equations
Some scientists are interesting to study in area of harvested ecological modelling. The harvested population dynamics is more realistic than other ecological models. In the present paper, some of the Lotka-Volterra predator-prey models have been considered. In the said models, existing species are harvested by constant or variable growth rates. The behavior of their solutions has been analyzed ...
