Asymptotic Behaviour of a Metapopulation Model
نویسنده
چکیده
We study the behaviour of an infinite system of ordinary differential equations modelling the dynamics of a meta-population, a set of (discrete) populations subject to local catastrophes and connected via migration under a mean field rule; the local population dynamics follow a generalized logistic law. We find a threshold below which all the solutions tend to total extinction of the meta-population, which is then the only equilibrium; above the threshold, there exists a unique equilibrium with positive population, which, under an additional assumption, is globally attractive. The proofs employ tools from the theories of Markov processes and of dynamical systems.

متن کاملAsymptotic behaviour of associated primes of monomial ideals with combinatorial applications
Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring and $I$ be an ideal of $R$. We say that $I$ satisfies the persistence property if $mathrm{Ass}_R(R/I^k)subseteq mathrm{Ass}_R(R/I^{k+1})$ for all positive integers $kgeq 1$, which $mathrm{Ass}_R(R/I)$ denotes the set of associated prime ideals of $I$. In this paper, we introduce a class of square-free monomial ideals in the polynomial ring $R=K[x_1,ld...
متن کاملExact asymptotic analysis for metapopulation dynamics on correlated dynamic landscapes.
We compute the mean patch occupancy for a stochastic, spatially explicit patch-occupancy metapopulation model on a dynamic, correlated landscape, using a mathematically exact perturbation expansion about a mean-field limit that applies when dispersal range is large. Stochasticity in the metapopulation and landscape dynamics gives negative contributions to patch occupancy, the former being more ...
متن کاملOn a sequence related to the coprime integers
The asymptotic behaviour of the sequence with general term $P_n=(varphi(1)+varphi(2)+cdots+varphi(n))/(1+2+cdots+n)$, is studied which appears in the studying of coprime integers, and an explicit bound for the difference $P_n-6/pi^2$ is found.
