Stability and Hopf Bifurcation in a Symmetric Lotka-volterra Predator-prey System with Delays
نویسندگان
چکیده
This article concerns a symmetrical Lotka-Volterra predator-prey system with delays. By analyzing the associated characteristic equation of the original system at the positive equilibrium and choosing the delay as the bifurcation parameter, the local stability and Hopf bifurcation of the system are investigated. Using the normal form theory, we also establish the direction and stability of the Hopf bifurcation. Numerical simulations suggest an existence of Hopf bifurcation near a critical value of time delay.

A note on Hopf bifurcations in a delayed diffusive Lotka-Volterra predator-prey system
The diffusive Lotka–Volterra predator–prey system with two delays is reconsidered here. The stability of the coexistence equilibrium and associated Hopf bifurcation are investigated by analyzing the characteristic equations, and our results complement earlier ones. We also obtain that in a special case, a Hopf bifurcation of spatial inhomogeneous periodic solutions occurs in the system. © 2011 ...
