FLIP AND N-S BIFURCATION BEHAVIOR OF A PREDATOR-PREY MODEL WITH PIECEWISE CONSTANT ARGUMENTS AND TIME DELAY

In this paper, the stability and bifurcation behaviors of a predator-prey model with the piecewise constant arguments and time delay are investigated. Technical approach is fully based on Jury criterion and bifurcation theory. The interesting point is that the model will produce two different branches by limiting branch parameters of different intervals. Besides, image simulation is also given.

Analytical Approach to Differential Equations with Piecewise Continuous Arguments via Modified Piecewise Variational Iteration Method

In the present article, we apply the modified piecewise variational iteration method to obtain the approximate analytical solutions of the differential equations with piecewise continuous arguments. This technique provides a sequence of functions which converges to the exact solution of the problem. Moreover, this method reduces the volume of calculations because it does not need discretization of the variables, linearization or small perturbations. The results seem to show that the method is very reliable and convenient for solving such equations.

THE CONVERGENCE OF TRUNCATED EULER-MARUYAMA METHOD FOR STOCHASTIC DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS WITH PIECEWISE CONTINUOUS ARGUMENTS UNDER GENERALIZED ONE-SIDED LIPSCHITZ CONDITION

In this paper,we consider the stochastic differential equations with piecewise continuous arguments(SDEPCAs)in which the drift coefficient satisfies the generalized one-sided Lipschitz condition and the diffusion coefficient satisfies the linear growth condition.Since the delay term t-[t]of SDEPCAs is not continuous and differentiable,the variable substitution method is not suitable.To overcome this dificulty,we adopt new techniques to prove the boundedness of the exact solution and the numerical solution.It is proved that the truncated Euler-Maruyama method is strongly convergent to SDEPCAs in the sense of L'(q≥2).We obtain the convergence order with some additional conditions.An example is presented to illustrate the analytical theory.
