Extinction of Species in Nonautonomous Lotka-volterra Systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
A nonautonomous nth order Lotka-Volterra system of differential equations is considered. It is shown that if the coefficients satisfy certain inequalities, then any solution with positive components at some point will have all of its last n − 1 components tend to zero, while the first one will stabilize at a certain solution of a logistic equation.

Persistence and Extinction for General Nonautonomous n-Species Lotka–Volterra Cooperative Systems with Delays
The general nonautonomous n-species Lotka–Volterra cooperative systems with varying-time delays are studied. Sufficient conditions for the uniform strong persistence, uniform weak average persistence, uniform strong average persistence, and extinction of populations are obtained by applying the method of Liapunov functionals. Particularly, when the intrinsic growth rate of a species is nonposit...
متن کاملPartial Extinction, Permanence, and Global Attractivity in Nonautonomous n-Species Gilpin-Ayala Competitive Systems with Impulses
In 1 , the general nonautonomous n-species Lotka-Volterra competitive systems with impulsive effects are investigated. By using the methods of inequalities estimate and constructing the suitable Liapunov functions, the sufficient conditions on the permanence of whole species and global attractivity of systems are established. In 2 , the authors studied the following general nonautonomous n-spec...
متن کاملExtinction in Nonautonomous Competitive Lotka-volterra Systems
It is well known that for the two species autonomous competitive Lotka-Volterra model with no fixed point in the open positive quadrant, one of the species is driven to extinction, whilst the other population stabilises at its own carrying capacity. In this paper we prove a generalisation of this result to nonautonomous systems of arbitrary finite dimension. That is, for the n species nonautono...
متن کاملPERMANENCE IN NONAUTONOMOUS DISCRETE LOTKA–VOLTERRA n-SPECIES COMPETITIVE SYSTEMS WITH PURE-DELAYS AND FEEDBACK CONTROLS
The paper discusses nonautonomous discrete Lotka–Volterra type n-species competitive systems with pure-delays and feedback controls. New sufficient conditions for which a part of the n-species remains permanent and others is driven to extinction are established by using the method of multiple discrete Lyapunov functionals and introducing new analysis technique. Our results show that the feedbac...

This paper concerns with the principle of competitive exclusion which is extended by Shair Ahmad (1999, Proceedings of the American Mathematical Society 127, 29052910), that is, if the coefficients satisfy certain inequalities, then any solution with positive components at some point will have all of its last n − 1 components tend to zero, while the first one will stabilize at a certain solutio...
