Stability and Bifurcation Analysis in a Nonlocal Diffusive Predator-prey Model with Hunting Cooperation

In this paper, we propose a diffusive predator-prey model with hunting cooperation and nonlocal competition. Under a rather general selection of the kernel function, we first study the stability of the positive equilibrium of the model. Then, we obtain the conditions which Hopf bifurcation and Turing bifurcation occur. Our results show that nonlocal competition plays an important role in determining the dynamics of the model.     

Spatio-temporal dynamics of a reaction–diffusion–advection food-limited system with nonlocal delayed competition and Dirichlet boundary condition

Spatio-temporal dynamics of a reaction–diffusion–advection food-limited population model with nonlocal delayed competition and Dirichlet boundary condition are considered. Existence and stability of the positive spatially nonhomogeneous steady state solution are shown. Existence and direction of the spatially nonhomogeneous steady-state-Hopf bifurcation are proved. Stable spatio-temporal patterns near the steady-state-Hopf bifurcation point are numerically obtained. We also investigate the joint influences of some important parameters including advection rate, food-limited parameter and nonlocal delayed competition on the dynamics. It is found that the effect of advection on Hopf bifurcation is opposite with the corresponding no-flux system. The theoretical results provide some interesting highlights in ecological protection in streams or rivers.     

Stability and Hopf bifurcation of a modified delay predator-prey model with stage structure

In this paper, a modified delay predator-prey model with stage structure is established, which involves the economic factor and internal competition of all the prey and predator populations. By the methods of normal form and characteristic equation, we obtain the stability of the positive equilibrium point and the sufficient condition of the existence of Hopf bifurcation. We analyze the influence of the time delay on the equation and show the occurrence of Hopf bifurcation periodic solution. The simulation gives a visual understanding for the existence and direction of Hopf bifurcation of the model.     

Stability and Hopf bifurcation in a delayed competition system

In this paper, Hopf bifurcation for two-species Lotka–Volterra competition systems with delay dependence is investigated. By choosing the delay as a bifurcation parameter, we prove that the system is stable over a range of the delay and beyond that it is unstable in the limit cycle form, i.e., there are periodic solutions bifurcating out from the positive equilibrium. Our results show that a stable competition system can be destabilized by the introduction of a maturation delay parameter. Further, an explicit algorithm for determining the direction of the Hopf bifurcation and the stability of the bifurcating periodic solutions is derived by using the theory of normal forms and center manifolds, and numerical simulations supporting the theoretical analysis are also given.

Hopf bifurcation in a delayed reaction–diffusion–advection population model

In this paper, we investigate a reaction–diffusion–advection model with time delay effect. The stability/instability of the spatially nonhomogeneous positive steady state and the associated Hopf bifurcation are investigated when the given parameter of the model is near the principle eigenvalue of an elliptic operator. Our results imply that time delay can make the spatially nonhomogeneous positive steady state unstable for a reaction–diffusion–advection model, and the model can exhibit oscillatory pattern through Hopf bifurcation. The effect of advection on Hopf bifurcation values is also considered, and our results suggest that Hopf bifurcation is more likely to occur when the advection rate increases.     

Pattern formation of a diffusive predator-prey model with herd behavior and nonlocal prey competition

In this paper, we study the influence of the nonlocal interspecific competition of the prey population on the dynamics of the diffusive predator-prey model with prey social behavior. Using the linear stability analysis, the conditions for the positive constant steady state at which undergoes Hopf bifurcation, T-H bifurcation (Turing-Hopf bifurcation) are investigated. The Turing patterns occur in the presence of the nonlocal competition and cannot be found in the original system. For determining the dynamical behavior near T-H bifurcation point, the normal form of the T-H bifurcation has been used. Some graphical representations are provided to illustrate the theoretical results.     

Stability and Hopf bifurcation in a class of nonlocal delay differential equation with the zero‐flux boundary condition

The aim of this paper is to study the stability and Hopf bifurcation in a general class of differential equation with nonlocal delayed feedback that models the population dynamics of a two age structured spices. The existence of Hopf bifurcation is firstly established after delicately analyzing the eigenvalue problem of the linearized nonlocal equation. The direction of the Hopf bifurcation and stability of the bifurcated periodic solutions are then investigated by means of center manifold reduction. Subsequently, we apply our main results to explore the spatial‐temporal patterns of the nonlocal Mackey‐Glass equation. We obtain both spatially homogeneous and inhomogeneous periodic solutions and numerically show that the former is stable while the latter is unstable. We also show that the inhomogeneous periodic solutions will eventually tend to homogeneous periodic solutions after transient oscillations and increasing of the immature mobility constant will shorten the transient oscillation time.

A reaction-diffusion model with logistic type growth, nonlocal delay effect and Dirichlet boundary condition is considered, and combined effect of the time delay and nonlocal spatial dispersal provides a more realistic way of modeling the complex spatiotemporal behavior. The stability of the positive spatially nonhomogeneous positive equilibrium and associated Hopf bifurcation are investigated for the case of near equilibrium bifurcation point and the case of spatially homogeneous dispersal kernel.     

Dynamical behavior in a stage-structured differential-algebraic prey-predator model with discrete time delay and harvesting

A differential-algebraic model system which considers a prey-predator system with stage structure for prey and harvest effort on predator is proposed. By using the differential-algebraic system theory and bifurcation theory, dynamic behavior of the proposed model system with and without discrete time delay is investigated. Local stability analysis of the model system without discrete time delay reveals that there is a phenomenon of singularity induced bifurcation due to variation of the economic interest of harvesting, and a state feedback controller is designed to stabilize the proposed model system at the interior equilibrium; Furthermore, local stability of the model system with discrete time delay is studied. It reveals that the discrete time delay has a destabilizing effect in the population dynamics, and a phenomenon of Hopf bifurcation occurs as the discrete time delay increases through a certain threshold. Finally, numerical simulations are carried out to show the consistency with theoretical analysis obtained in this paper.     

Dynamics of a ratio‐dependent stage‐structured predator‐prey model with delay

In this paper, we investigate the dynamics of a time‐delay ratio‐dependent predator‐prey model with stage structure for the predator. This predator‐prey system conforms to the realistically biological environment. The existence and stability of the positive equilibrium are thoroughly analyzed, and the sufficient and necessary conditions for the stability and instability of the positive equilibrium are obtained for the case without delay. Then, the influence of delay on the dynamics of the system is investigated using the geometric criterion developed by Beretta and Kuang. 26 We show that the positive steady state can be destabilized through a Hopf bifurcation and there exist stability switches under some conditions. The formulas determining the direction and the stability of Hopf bifurcations are explicitly derived by using the center manifold reduction and normal form theory. Finally, some numerical simulations are performed to illustrate and expand our theoretical results.

Moreover, we illustrate our general results by applications to models with a one‐dimensional spatial domain. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Stability and Hopf Bifurcation of a Type of Protein Synthesis System with Time Delay and Negative Feedback

This paper studied the stability and Hopf bifurcation of a type of protein synthesis system with time delay and negative feedback. Firstly, it is proved theoretically that the time delay, nonlinearity in the protein production and the cooperativity in the negative feedback are key factors to generate circadian oscillation; Taking time delay as a parameter, we obtained the critical value of the time delay that Hopf bifurcation generates. Secondly, based on the center manifold and normal form theorem, we derived the formulas for determining the stability of bifurcating periodic solutions and the supercritical or subcritical Hopf bifurcation. Finally, the matlab program is used to simulate the results.     

Bifurcation analysis of a modified Holling-Tanner predator-prey model with time delay

In this paper, a modified Holling-Tanner predator-prey model with time delay is considered. By regarding the delay as the bifurcation parameter, the local asymptotic stability of the positive equilibrium is investigated. Meanwhile, we find that the system can also undergo a Hopf bifurcation of nonconstant periodic solution at the positive equilibrium when the delay crosses through a sequence of critical values. In particular, we study the direction of Hopf bifurcation and the stability of bifurcated periodic solutions, an explicit algorithm is given by applying the normal form theory and the center manifold reduction for functional differential equations. Finally, numerical simulations supporting the theoretical analysis are also included.     

Modeling and analysis of a prey–predator system with disease in the prey

A three dimensional ecoepidemiological model consisting of susceptible prey, infected prey and predator is proposed and analysed in the present work. The parameter delay is introduced in the model system for considering the time taken by a susceptible prey to become infected. Mathematically we analyze the dynamics of the system such as, boundedness of the solutions, existence of non-negative equilibria, local and global stability of interior equilibrium point. Next we choose delay as a bifurcation parameter to examine the existence of the Hopf bifurcation of the system around its interior equilibrium. Moreover we use the normal form method and center manifold theorem to investigate the direction of the Hopf bifurcation and stability of the bifurcating limit cycle. Some numerical simulations are carried out to support the analytical results.     

Stability and bifurcation in a harvested one-predator–two-prey model with delays

It is known that one-predator–two-prey system with constant rate harvesting can exhibit very rich dynamics. If such a system contains time delayed component, it can have more interesting behavior. In this paper we study the effects of the time delay on the dynamics of the harvested one-predator–two-prey model. It is shown that time delay can cause a stable equilibrium to become unstable. By choosing the delay τ as a bifurcation parameter, we show that Hopf bifurcation can occur as the delay τ crosses some critical values. The direction and stability of the Hopf bifurcation are investigated by following the procedure of deriving normal form given by Faria and Magalhães. An example is given and numerical simulations are finally performed for justifying the theoretical results.     

Necessary and sufficient conditions for Hopf bifurcation in exponential RED algorithm with communication delay

In this paper, we investigate a novel congestion control algorithm, i.e., exponential RED algorithm, with communication delay. We derive some necessary and sufficient conditions ensuring Hopf bifurcation to occur for this model. By choosing the delay as a bifurcation parameter, we demonstrated that Hopf bifurcation would occur when the delay exceeds a critical value. A formula for determining the bifurcation direction and stability of bifurcation periodic solutions is given by applying the normal form theory and the center manifold theorem. Some numerical simulations for justifying the theoretical results are also provided.     

An Epidemic Model with a Time Delay in Transmission

We study a mathematical model which was originally suggested by Greenhalgh and Das and takes into account the delay in the recruitment of infected persons. The stability of the equilibria are also discussed. In addition, we show that the introduction of a time delay in the transmission term can destabilize the system and periodic solutions can arise by Hopf bifurcation.
