A Diffusive Predator-prey Model in Heterogeneous Environment
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper, we demonstrate some special behavior of steady-state solutions to a predator-prey model due to the introduction of spatial heterogeneity. We show that positive steady-state solutions with certain prescribed spatial patterns can be obtained when the spatial environment is designed suitably. Moreover, we observe some essential differences of the behavior of our model from that of the classical Lotka-Volterra model that seem to arise only in the heterogeneous case.

Hopf bifurcation analysis of a diffusive predator-prey model with Monod-Haldane response
In this paper, we have studied the diffusive predator-prey model with Monod-Haldane functional response. The stability of the positive equilibrium and the existence of Hopf bifurcation are investigated by analyzing the distribution of eigenvalues without diffusion. We also study the spatially homogeneous and non-homogeneous periodic solutions through all parameters of the system which are spati...
متن کاملSome Recent Results on Diffusive Predator-prey Models in Spatially Heterogeneous Environment
We present several recent results obtained in our attempts to understand the influence of spatial heterogeneity in the predator-prey models. Two different approaches are taken. The first approach is based on the observation that the behavior of many diffusive population models is very sensitive to certain coefficient functions becoming small in part of the underlying spatial region. We apply th...

متن کاملDynamics of an eco-epidemic model with stage structure for predator
The predator-prey model with stage structure for predator is generalized in the context of ecoepidemiology, where the prey population is infected by a microparasite and the predator completely avoids consuming the infected prey. The intraspecific competition of infected prey is considered. All the equilibria are characterized and the existence of a Hopf bifurcation at the coexistence equilibriu...
متن کاملOn a diffusive prey--predator model which exhibits patchiness.
Spatial heterogeneity (patchiness) in certain predator-prey situations has been observed even though their environment appears homogeneous. As a model mechanism to explain this patchiness phenomenon we propose a predator-prey interaction system with diffusive effects. We show that when the diffusion of the prey is small compared with that of the predator the non-linearity which we call a hump e...
