Global asymptotic stability in n-species nonautonomous Lotka–Volterra competitive systems with infinite delays

By means of Lyapunov functional, we have succeeded in establishing the global asymptotic stability of the positive solutions of a delayed n-species nonautonomous Lotka–Volterra type competitive system without dominating instantaneous negative feedbacks. As a corollary, we show that the global asymptotic stability of the positive solution is maintained provided that the delayed negative feedbacks dominate other interspecific interaction effects with delays and the mean delays are sufficiently small.

Positive periodic solutions of periodic neutral Lotka–Volterra system with state dependent delays

By using a fixed point theorem of strict-set-contraction, some new criteria are established for the existence of positive periodic solutions of the following periodic neutral Lotka–Volterra system with state dependent delays

where (i,j=1,2,…,n) are ω-periodic functions and (i=1,2,…,n) are ω-periodic functions with respect to their first arguments, respectively.     

Global dynamics behaviors for a nonautonomous Lotka–Volterra almost periodic dispersal system with delays

A nonautonomous Lotka–Volterra dispersal system with continuous delays and discrete delays is considered. By using a comparison theorem and delay differential equation basic theory, we obtain sufficient conditions for the permanence of the population in every patch. By constructing a suitable Lyapunov functional, we prove that the system is globally asymptotically stable under some appropriate conditions. Using almost periodic functional hull theory, we get sufficient conditions for the existence, uniqueness and globally asymptotical stability for an almost periodic solution. This implies that the population in every patch exhibits stable almost periodic fluctuation. Furthermore, the results show that the permanence and global stability of system, and the existence and uniqueness of a positive almost periodic solution, depend on the delay; then we call it “profitless”.

Global attractor in competitive Lotka–Volterra systems

For autonomous Lotka–Volterra systems of differential equations modelling the dynamics of n competing species, new criteria are established for the existence of a single point global attractor. Under the conditions of these criteria, some of the species will survive and stabilise at a steady state whereas the others, if any, will die out (© 2009 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

Existence of almost periodic solution in a ratio-dependent Leslie system with feedback controls

A ratio-dependent Leslie system with feedback controls is studied. By using a comparison theorem and constructing a suitable Lyapunov function, some sufficient conditions for the existence of a unique almost periodic solution (periodic solution) and the global attractivity of the solutions are obtained. Examples show that the obtained criteria are new, general, and easily verifiable.     

The Criteria for Globally Stable Equilibrium in n-Dimensional Lotka–Volterra Systems

In this paper, a set of sufficient conditions are obtained for the existence of a globally asymptotically stable equilibrium point in various submodels of the classic n-dimensional Lotka–Volterra system. The submodels are the following systems: competition (cooperative or predator–prey) chain system and competition (cooperative or predator–prey) model between one and multispecies. The criteria in this paper are in explicit forms of the parameters and thus are easily verifiable.     

Periodic and almost periodic solution for a non-autonomous epidemic predator-prey system with time-delay

In this paper, we studied a non-autonomous predator-prey system with discrete time-delay, where there is epidemic disease in the predator. By using some techniques of the differential inequalities and delay differential inequalities, we proved that the system is permanent under some appropriate conditions. When all the coefficients of the system is periodic, we obtained the existence and global attractivity of the positive periodic solution by Mawhin’s continuation theorem and constructing a suitable Lyapunov functional. Furthermore, when the coefficients of the system are not absolutely periodic but almost periodic, sufficient conditions are also derived for the existence and asymptotic stability of the almost periodic solution.     

Dynamical behavior of Lotka–Volterra competition systems: non-autonomous bistable case and the effect of telegraph noise

This article is concerned with the study of trajectory behavior of Lotka–Volterra competition bistable systems and systems with telegraph noises. We proved that for bistable systems, there exists a unique solution, bounded above and below by positive constants. The oscillatory situation of systems with telegraph noises is pointed out.     

Conservation laws for Lotka–Volterra models

We derive necessary and sufficient conditions on a Lotka–Volterra model to admit a conservation law of Volterra's type. The result and the proof for the corresponding linear algebra problem are given in graph‐theoretical terms; they refer to the directed graph which is defined by the coefficients of the differential equation system.

Uniform persistence for Lotka–Volterra-type delay differential systems

Consider the uniform persistence (permanence) of models governed by the following Lotka–Volterra-type delay differential system:

where each r_i(t) is a nonnegative continuous function on [0,+∞), r_i(t)0, each a_i0 and τ_ij^k(t)t, 1i,jn, 0km.In this paper, we establish sufficient conditions of the uniform persistence and contractivity for solutions (and global asymptotic stability). In particular, we extend the results in Wang and Ma (J. Math. Anal. Appl. 158 (1991) 256) for a predator–prey system and Lu and Takeuchi (Nonlinear Anal. TMA 22 (1994) 847) for a competitive system in the case n=2, to the above system with n2.

Global asymptotical stability of a unique almost periodic solution for enterprise clusters based on ecology theory with time-varying delays and feedback controls

This paper is concerned with some dynamic behavior of enterprises cluster constituted by n satellite enterprises and a dominant enterprise. We present a model involving time-varying delays and feedback controls based on ecology theory, which effectively describe the competition and cooperation of enterprises cluster in real economic environments. Applying the comparison theorem of differential equations and constructing a suitable Lyapunov functional, sufficient conditions which guarantee the existence of a unique globally asymptotically stable nonnegative almost periodic solution of the system are obtained. Finally, we present an example to explain the economical significance of mathematical results.     

Multi‐dimensional Lotka–Volterra systems for carcinogenesis mutations

In the paper we consider three classes of models describing carcinogenesis mutations. Every considered model is described by the system of (n+1) equations, and in each class three models are studied: the first is expressed as a system of ordinary differential equations (ODEs), the second—as a system of reaction–diffusion equations (RDEs) with the same kinetics as the first one and with the Neumann boundary conditions, while the third is also described by the system of RDEs but with the Dirichlet boundary conditions. The models are formulated on the basis of the Lotka–Volterra systems (food chains and competition systems) and in the case of RDEs the linear diffusion is considered. The differences between studied classes of models are expressed by the kinetic functions, namely by the form of kinetic function for the last variable, which reflects the dynamics of malignant cells (that is the last stage of mutations). In the first class the models are described by the typical food chain with favourable unbounded environment for the last stage, in the second one—the last equation expresses competition between the pre‐malignant and malignant cells and the environment is also unbounded, while for the third one—it is expressed by predation term but the environment is unfavourable. The properties of the systems in each class are studied and compared. It occurs that the behaviour of solutions to the systems of ODEs and RDEs with the Neumann boundary conditions is similar in each class; i.e. it does not depend on diffusion coefficients, but strongly depends on the class of models. On the other hand, in the case of the Dirichlet boundary conditions this behaviour is related to the magnitude of diffusion coefficients. For sufficiently large diffusion coefficients it is similar independently of the class of models, i.e. the trivial solution that is unstable for zero diffusion gains stability.
