In this study, we investigate predator-prey dynamics affected by both delays and the Allee effect. We analyze the consequences of delays in different feedback mechanisms. The existence of a Hopf bifurcation is studied, and we calculate the value of the delay that leads to the Hopf bifurcation. Furthermore, applying the normal form theory and a center manifold theorem, we consider the direction and stability of the Hopf bifurcation. Finally, we present numerical experiments that validate our theoretical analysis. Interestingly, depending on the chosen delay mechanism, we find that delays are not necessarily destabilizing. The Allee effect generally increases the stability of the equilibrium, and when the Allee effect involves a delay term, the stabilization effect is more pronounced.展开更多

Mathematical theoretical work not only investigated the existence and stability of all possible equilibrium points, but also probed into the occurrence of transcritical and Hopf bifurcation. The numerical simulation works verified the effectiveness of the theoretical derivation results and displayed rich bifurcation dynamical behaviors, which showed that Allee effect and harvest have played a vital role in the dynamic relationship between algae and fish. In summary, it was expected that these research results would be beneficial for promoting the study of bifurcation dynamics in aquatic ecosystems.展开更多

This type of problem arises from the study of spatial ecology model, and the growth function in the equation has a strong Allee effect and is inhomogeneous. We use variational methods to prove that the equation has at least two positive solutions for a large parameter if it satisfies some appropriate conditions. We also prove some nonexistence results.展开更多

Mathematical derivation works mainly gave some key conditions to ensure the existence and stability of all possible equilibrium points, and to induce the occurrence of transcritical bifurcation and Hopf bifurcation. The numerical simulation works mainly revealed ecological relationship change characteristics of algae and protozoa with the help of bifurcation dynamics evolution process. Furthermore, it was also worth emphasizing that Allee effect had a strong influence on the dynamic relationship between algae and protozoa. In a word, it was hoped that the research results could provide some theoretical support for algal bloom control, and also be conducive to the rapid development of aquatic ecological models.展开更多

In particular, the predator-prey systems have sparked significant interest among applied mathematicians and ecologists. From the perspectives of both mathematics and biology, a predator-prey system with the Allee effect and featuring the Bazykin functional response has been established. For this model, analyses have been conducted on its boundedness, the properties of its solutions, the existence of equilibrium points, as well as its local stability and Hopf bifurcations.展开更多

We first mathematically explore how the Allee effect affects the existence and stability of the positive equilibrium for the system without diffusion. The explicit dependent condition of the existence of the positive equilibrium on the strength of Allee effect is determined. It has been shown that there exist two positive equilibria for some modulate strength of Allee effect. The influence of the strength of the Allee effect on the stability of the coexistence equilibrium corresponding to high predator biomass is completely investigated and the analytically critical values of Hopf bifurcations are theoretically determined.We have shown that there exists stability switches induced by Allee effect. Finally, the diffusion-driven Turing instability, which can not occur for the original system without Allee effect in predator, is explored, and it has been shown that there exists diffusion-driven Turing instability for the case when predator spread slower than prey because of the existence of Allee effect in predator.展开更多

Conditions of the existence for flip bifurcation and Hopf bifurcation are derived by using the center manifold theorem and bifurcation theory, and then further illustrated by numerical simulations. Chaos in the sense of Marotto is proved by both analytical and numerical methods. Numerical simulations included bifurcation diagrams, Lyapunov exponents, phase portraits, fractal dimensions display new and rich dynamical behavior. More specifically, apart from stable dynamics, this paper presents the finding of chaos in the sense of Marotto together with a host of interesting phenomena connected to it. The analytic results and numerical simulations demostrates that the Allee constant plays a very important role for dynamical behavior. The dynamical behavior can move from complex instable states to stable states as the Allee constant increases (within a limited value). Combining the existing results in the current literature with the new results reported in this paper, a more complete understanding of the discrete-time predator-prey with Allee effect is given.展开更多

By analyzing the Jacobian matrix about the positive equilibrium, we show that the positive equilibrium is locally asymptotically stable. By applying the differential inequality theory, we show that the system is permanent, consequently, the boundary equilibria of the system is unstable. Finally, by using the Dulac criterion, we show that the positive equilibrium is globally stable. Although Allee effect has no influence on the final densities of the predator and prey species, numeric simulations show that the system subject to an Allee effect takes much longer time to reach its stable steady-state solution, in this sense that Allee effect has unstable effect on the system, however, such an effect is controllable. Such an finding is greatly different to that of the predator-prey model.展开更多

According to the most popular approaches, habitats are considered as the homogenous parts of the landscape. Also the metapopulation concept problem of the inert habitat heterogenity is considered quite seldom. These approaches have some weak points resulting from the assumption that the border between habitat patches and the metapopulation matrix is fairly sharp. This paper presents a resource-based concept of habitats, based on mathematical theory of point processes, which can be easily applied to analysing the problem of uneven distribution of resources. The basic assumption is that the random distribution of resources may be mathematically described as the realisation of a certain point process. According to our method, it is possible to calculate the expected quantities of available resources as well as the minimum area of habitat that includes the expected abundance of the resource. This approach may be very useful to understand some crucial phenomena in landscape ecology, such as the patch size effect and its connection to habitat loss and fragmentation.展开更多
