Bifurcation analysis on a diffusive Holling–Tanner predator–prey model

This paper is concerned with a diffusive Holling–Tanner predator–prey model subject to homogeneous Neumann boundary condition. By choosing the ratio of intrinsic growth rates of predator to prey λ as the bifurcation parameter, we find that spatially homogeneous and non-homogeneous Hopf bifurcation occur at the positive constant steady state as λ varies. The steady state bifurcation of simple and double eigenvalues are intensively investigated. The techniques of space decomposition and the implicit function theorem are adopted to deal with the case of double eigenvalues. Our results show that this model can exhibit spatially non-homogeneous periodic and stationary patterns induced by the parameter λ. Numerical simulations are presented to illustrate our theoretical results.     

Spatiotemporal pattern formation and multiple bifurcations in a diffusive bimolecular model

In this paper, we have investigated a homogeneous reaction–diffusion bimolecular model with autocatalysis and saturation law subject to Neumann boundary conditions. We mainly consider Hopf bifurcations and steady state bifurcations which bifurcate from the unique constant positive equilibrium solution of the system. Our results suggest the existence of spatially non-homogeneous periodic orbits and non-constant positive steady state solutions, which implies the possibility of rich spatiotemporal patterns in this diffusive biomolecular system. Numerical examples are presented to support our theoretical analysis.     

Hopf bifurcation analysis of a reaction-diffusion Sel'kov system

A reaction-diffusion system known as the Sel'kov model subject to the homogeneous Neumann boundary condition is investigated, where detailed Hopf bifurcation analysis is performed. We not only show the existence of the spatially homogeneous/non-homogeneous periodic solutions of the system, but also derive conditions for determining the bifurcation direction and the stability of the bifurcating periodic solution.     

Bifurcation analysis of the Gierer–Meinhardt system with a saturation in the activator production

The reaction–diffusion Gierer–Meinhardt system with a saturation in the activator production is considered. Stability of the unique positive constant steady state solution is analysed, and associated Hopf bifurcations and steady state bifurcations are obtained. A global bifurcation diagram of non-trivial periodic orbits and steady state solutions with respect to key system parameters is obtained, which improves the understanding of dynamics of Gierer–Meinhardt system with a saturation in different parameter regimes.     

EXISTENCE OF PERIODIC SOLUTIONS TO A PERTURBED FOUR-DIMENSIONAL SYSTEM

Consider a k multiple closed orbit on an invariant surface of a four dimensional system, after a suitable perturbation, the closed orbit can generate periodic orbits and double-period orbits. Using bifurcation methods and techniques, sufficient conditions for the existence of periodic solutions to the perturbed four dimensional system are obtained, and the period-doubling bifurcations is discussed.     

Spatial resonance and Turing–Hopf bifurcations in the Gierer–Meinhardt model

Gierer–Meinhardt system as a molecularly plausible model has been proposed to formalize the observation for pattern formation. In this paper, the Gierer–Meinhardt model without the saturating term is considered. By the linear stability analysis, we not only give out the conditions ensuring the stability and Turing instability of the positive equilibrium but also find the parameter values where possible Turing–Hopf and spatial resonance bifurcation can occur. Then we develop the general algorithm for the calculations of normal form associated with codimension-2 spatial resonance bifurcation to better understand the dynamics neighboring of the bifurcating point. The spatial resonance bifurcation reveals the interaction of two steady state solutions with different modes. Numerical simulations are employed to illustrate the theoretical results for both the Turing–Hopf bifurcation and spatial resonance bifurcation. Some expected solutions including stable spatially inhomogeneous periodic solutions and coexisting stable spatially steady state solutions evolve from Turing–Hopf bifurcation and spatial resonance bifurcation respectively.

The necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of periodic orbits in a Lotka-Volterra system

By extending Darboux method to three dimension, we present necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of periodic orbits in three species Lotka-Volterra systems with the same intrinsic growth rates. Therefore, all the published sufficient or necessary conditions for the existence of periodic orbits of the system are included in our results. Furthermore, we prove the stability of periodic orbits. Hopf bifurcation is shown for the emergence of periodic orbits and new phenomenon is presented: at critical values, each equilibrium are surrounded by either equilibria or periodic orbits.     

Stability and Hopf bifurcation of a delayed predator-prey system with nonlocal competition and herd behaviour

In this paper, we investigate the stability and Hopf bifurcation of a diffusive predator-prey system with herd behaviour. The model is described by introducing both time delay and nonlocal prey intraspecific competition. Compared to the model without time delay, or without nonlocal competition, thanks to the together action of time delay and nonlocal competition, we prove that the first critical value of Hopf bifurcation may be homogenous or non-homogeneous. We also show that a double-Hopf bifurcation occurs at the intersection point of the homogenous and non-homogeneous Hopf bifurcation curves. Furthermore, by the computation of normal forms for the system near equilibria, we investigate the stability and direction of Hopf bifurcation. Numerical simulations also show that the spatially homogeneous and non-homogeneous periodic patters.     

Bifurcation analysis of a predator–prey model with memory-based diffusion

In this paper, we investigate the predator–prey model equipped with Fickian diffusion and memory-based diffusion of predators. The stability and bifurcation analysis explores the impacts of the memory-based diffusion and the averaged memory period on the dynamics near the positive steady state. Specifically, when the memory-based diffusion coefficient is less than a critical value, we show that the stability of the positive steady state can be destabilized as the average memory period increases, which leads to the occurrence of Hopf bifurcations. Moreover, we also analyze the bifurcation properties using the central manifold theorem and normal form theory. This allows us to prove the existence of stable spatially inhomogeneous periodic solutions arising from Hopf bifurcation. In addition, the sufficient and necessary conditions for the occurrence of stability switches are also provided.     

Generalized Hopf Bifurcation for Planar Filippov Systems Continuous at the Origin

In this paper, we study the existence of periodic orbits bifurcating from stationary solutions of a planar dynamical system of Filippov type. This phenomenon is interpreted as a generalized Hopf bifurcation. In the case of smoothness, Hopf bifurcation is characterized by a pair of complex conjugate eigenvalues crossing through the imaginary axis. This method does not carry over to nonsmooth systems, due to the lack of linearization at the origin which is located on the line of discontinuity. In fact, generalized Hopf bifurcation is determined by interactions between the discontinuity of the system and the eigen-structures of all subsystems. With the help of geometrical observations for a corresponding piecewise linear system, we derive an analytical method to investigate the existence of periodic orbits that are obtained by searching for the fixed points of return maps.

Bifurcation analysis in a diffusive Segel–Jackson model

Bifurcations of spatially nonhomogeneous periodic orbits and steady state solutions are rigorously proved for a reaction–diffusion system modeling predator–prey interaction. The existence of these patterned solutions shows the richness of the spatiotemporal dynamics such as oscillatory behavior and spatial patterns.     

Turing-Hopf bifurcation in the reaction-diffusion system with delay and application to a diffusive predator-prey model

The interactions of diffusion-driven Turing instability and delay-induced Hopf bifurcation always give rise to rich spatiotemporal dynamics. In this paper, we first derive the algorithm for the normal forms associated with the Turing-Hopf bifurcation in the reaction-diffusion system with delay, which can be used to investigate the spatiotemporal dynamical classification near the Turing-Hopf bifurcation point in the parameter plane. Then, we consider a diffusive predator-prey model with weak Allee effect and delay. Through investigating the dynamics of the corresponding normal form of Turing-Hopf bifurcation induced by diffusion and delay, the spatiotemporal dynamics near this bifurcation point can be divided into six categories. Especially, stable spatially homogeneous/inhomogeneous periodic solutions and steady states, coexistence of two stable spatially inhomogeneous periodic solutions, coexistence of two stable spaially inhomogeneous steady states and the transition from one kind of spatiotemporal patterns to another are found.     

Diffusive logistic equation with constant yield harvesting, I: Steady States

We consider a reaction-diffusion equation which models the constant yield harvesting to a spatially heterogeneous population which satisfies a logistic growth. We prove the existence, uniqueness and stability of the maximal steady state solutions under certain conditions, and we also classify all steady state solutions under more restricted conditions. Exact global bifurcation diagrams are obtained in the latter case. Our method is a combination of comparison arguments and bifurcation theory.

     

Stability and bifurcations for the chronic state in Marchuk's model of an immune system

In the paper we present known and new results concerning stability and the Hopf bifurcation for the positive steady state describing a chronic disease in Marchuk's model of an immune system. We describe conditions guaranteeing local stability or instability of this state in a general case and for very strong immune system. We compare these results with the results known in the literature. We show that the positive steady state can be stable only for very specific parameter values. Stability analysis is illustrated by Mikhailov's hodographs and numerical simulations. Conditions for the Hopf bifurcation and stability of arising periodic orbit are also studied. These conditions are checked for arbitrary chosen realistic parameter values. Numerical examples of arising due to the Hopf bifurcation periodic solutions are presented.

Bifurcations of heteroclinic loops

By generalizing the Floquet method from periodic systems to systems with exponential dichotomy, a local coordinate system is established in a neighborhood of the heteroclinic loop Γ to study the bifurcation problems of homoclinic and periodic orbits. Asymptotic expressions of the bifurcation surfaces and their relative positions are given. The results obtained in literature concerned with the 1-hom bifurcation surfaces are improved and extended to the nontransversal case. Existence regions of the 1-per orbits bifurcated from Γ are described, and the uniqueness and incoexistence of the 1-hom and 1-per orbit and the inexistence of the 2-hom and 2-per orbit are also obtained.

Steady-state and Hopf bifurcations in the Langford ODE and PDE systems

This paper is concerned with the Langford ODE and PDE systems. For the Langford ODE system, the existence of steady-state solutions is firstly obtained by Lyapunov–Schmidt method, and the stability and bifurcation direction of periodic solutions are established. Then for the Langford PDE system, the steady-state bifurcations from simple and double eigenvalues are intensively studied. The techniques of space decomposition and implicit function theorem are adopted to deal with the case of double eigenvalue. Finally, by the center manifold theory and the normal form method, the direction of Hopf bifurcation and the stability of spatially homogeneous and inhomogeneous periodic solutions for the PDE system are investigated.
