چکیده

Lotka-Volterra systems have been extensively studied by many authors, both in the autonomous and non-autonomous cases. In previous papers the time asymptotic behaviour as t → ∞ has been considered. In this paper we also consider the “pullback” asymptotic behaviour which roughly corresponds to observing a system “now” that has already been evolving for a long time. For a competitive system that is asymptotically autonomous both as t→ −∞ and as t→ +∞ we show that these two notions of asymptotic behaviour can be very different but are both important for a full understanding of the dynamics. In particular there are parameter ranges for which, although one species dies out as t→∞, there is a distinguished time-dependent coexistent state that is attracting in the pullback sense.

Permanence and Asymptotically Stable Complete Trajectories for Nonautonomous Lotka-Volterra Models with Diffusion

Lotka-Volterra systems are the canonical ecological models used to analyze population dynamics of competition, symbiosis or prey-predator behaviour involving different interacting species in a fixed habitat. Much of the work on these models has been within the framework of infinite-dimensional dynamical systems, but this has frequently been extended to allow explicit time dependence, generally ...

Pullback permanence in a non-autonomous competitive Lotka–Volterra model

The goal of this work is to study in some detail the asymptotic behaviour of a nonautonomous Lotka–Volterra model, both in the conventional sense (as t-N) and in the ‘‘pullback’’ sense (starting a fixed initial condition further and further back in time). The nonautonomous terms in our model are chosen such that one species will eventually die out, ruling out any conventional type of permanence...

Permanency and Asymptotic Behavior of The Generalized Lotka-Volterra Food Chain System

In the present paper a generalized Lotka-Volterra food chain system has been studied and also its dynamic behavior such as locally asymptotic stability has been analyzed in case of existing interspecies competition. Furthermore, it has been shown that the said system is permanent (in the sense of boundedness and uniformly persistent). Finally, it is proved that the nontrivial equilibrium point...

Pullback D-attractors for non-autonomous partly dissipative reaction-diffusion equations in unbounded domains

At present paper, we establish the existence of pullback $mathcal{D}$-attractor for the process associated with non-autonomous partly dissipative reaction-diffusion equation in $L^2(mathbb{R}^n)times L^2(mathbb{R}^n)$. In order to do this, by energy equation method we show that the process, which possesses a pullback $mathcal{D}$-absorbing set, is pullback $widehat{D}_0$-asymptotically compact.

2n Positive Periodic Solutions to n Species Non-autonomous Lotka-Volterra Competition Systems with Harvesting Terms

By using Mawhin’s continuation theorem of coincidence degree theory, we establish the existence of 2 positive periodic solutions for n species non-autonomous Lotka-Volterra competition systems with harvesting terms. An example is given to illustrate the effectiveness of our results. Keywords—Positive periodic solutions; Lotka-Volterra competition system; Coincidence degree; Harvesting term.
