These are species of ants, bees and wasps that have evolved to invade, survive and reproduce within a host colony of another social species. This is achieved principally by chemical deception that tricks the host workers into treating the invading parasite as their own kin. Achieving levels of acceptance into typically hostile host colonies requires an amazing level of decep- tion as social insects have evolved complex species- and colony-specific recognition systems. This allows the detection of for- eigners, both hetero- and con-specific. Therefore, social parasitic ants not only have to overcome the unique species recognition profiles that each ant species produces, but also the subtle variations in theses profiles which generate the colony-specific profiles We present data on the level of chemical similarity between social parasites and their hosts in four different systems and then discuss these data in the wider context with previous studies, especially in respect to using multivariate statistical methods when looking for differences in these systems.展开更多

We first find the critical Fujita exponent, and then determine the second critical exponent to characterize the critical space-decay rate of initial data in the co-existence region of global and non-global solutions. Moreover, time-decay profiles are obtained for the global solutions. It can be found that, different from those for the situations of general semilinear heat systems, we have to use distinctive techniques to treat the influence from the viscous terms of the highest order. To fix the non-global solutions, we exploit the test function method, instead of the general Kaplan method for heat systems. To obtain the global solutions, we apply the LP-Lq technique to establish some uniform Lm time-decay estimates. In particular, under a suitable classification for the nonlinear parameters and the initial data, various Lm time-decay estimates in the procedure enable us to arrive at the time-decay profiles of solutions to the system. It is mentioned that the general scaling method for parabolic problems relies heavily on regularizing effect to establish the compactness of approximating solutions, which cannot be directly realized here due to absence of the smooth effect in the pseudo-parabolic system.展开更多
