Dynamics of a delayed predator–prey model with predator migration

Based on the availability of prey and a simple predator–prey model, we propose a delayed predator–prey model with predator migration to describe biological control. We first study the existence and stability of equilibria. It turns out that backward bifurcation occurs with the migration rate as bifurcation parameter. The stability of the trivial equilibrium and the boundary equilibrium is delay-independent. However, the stability of the positive equilibrium may be delay-dependent. Moreover, delay can switch the stability of the positive equilibrium. When the positive equilibrium loses stability, Hopf bifurcation can occur. The direction and stability of Hopf bifurcation is derived by applying the center manifold method and the normal form theory. The main theoretical results are illustrated with numerical simulations.     

Global dynamics of a modified Leslie-Gower predator-prey model with Crowley-Martin functional responses

In this paper, we study a modified Leslie-Gower predator-prey model with Crowley-Martin functional responses. We show the existence of a bounded positive invariant and attracting set. The possibility of existence and uniqueness of positive equilibrium are considered. The asymptotic behavior of the positive equilibrium and the existence of Hopf-bifurcation of nonconstant periodic solutions surrounding the interior equilibrium are considered. The existence and non-existence of periodic solutions are established under suitable conditions. The permanence conditions are also established. We obtained sufficient conditions to ensure the global stability of the unique positive equilibrium, by using suitable Lyapunov functions, LaSalle invariance principle and Dulac’s criterion. We obtained also sufficient conditions for the global stability of the prey-extinction equilibrium when the unique positive equilibrium is not feasible. Finally, numerical simulations are presented to illustrate the analytical results.

Dynamics of an epidemic model with relapse and delay

In this paper, we consider a new epidemiological model with delay and relapse phenomena. Firstly, a basic reproduction number $R_0$ is identified, which serves as a threshold parameter for the stability of the equilibria of the model. Then, beginning with the delay-free model, the global asymptotic stability of the equilibria is obtained through the construction of suitable Lyapunov functions. For the delay model, the stability of the positive equilibrium and the existence of the local Hopf bifurcation are discussed. Furthermore, the application of the normal form theory and center manifold theorem is used to determine the direction and stability of these Hopf bifurcations. Finally, we shed light on corresponding biological implications from a numerical perspective. It turns out that time delay affects the stability of the positive equilibrium, leading to the occurrence of periodic oscillations and disease recurrence.     

Analysis of a bacteria-immunity model with delay quorum sensing

A bacteria-immunity model with bacterial quorum sensing is formulated, which describes the competition between bacteria and immune cells. A distributed delay is introduced to characterize the time in which bacteria receive signal molecules and then combat with immune cells. In this paper, we focus on a subsystem of the bacteria-immunity model, analyze the stability of the equilibrium points, discuss the existence and stability of periodic solutions bifurcated from the positive equilibrium point, and finally investigate the stability of the nonhyperbolic equilibrium point by the center manifold theorem.     

Global dynamics of two phytoplankton-zooplankton models with toxic substances effect

In this paper, we investigate phytoplankton-zooplankton models with toxic substances effect and two different kinds of predator functional responses. For Holling type II predator functional response, it is shown that the local stability of the positive equilibrium implies global stability if there exists a unique positive equilibrium. When there exist multiple positive equilibria, the local stability of the positive equilibrium with small phytoplankton population density implies that the model occurs bistable phenomenon. These results also hold for Holling type III predator functional response under certain conditions.     

Dependence of stability of Nicholson's blowflies equation with maturation stage on parameters

The stability of Nicholson''s blowflies equation with maturation stage is investigated by reducing the number of parameters in the original model. We derive the condition on the stability of the positive equilibrium of the model, and discuss the dependence of the stability on the parameters by analyzing geometrically the dependence of real parts of eigenvalues of the characteristic equation with fewer parameters on the parameters. By restoring parameters, the condition on the stability of the positive equilibrium of the original model are formulated explicitly, and the corresponding regions are depicted for some different cases. The obtained result shows that the parameter determining the maximum reproductive success of the population affects only the size of the positive equilibrium, but plays no role in determining its stability.

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.     

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.     

Local and global stability analysis of a two prey one predator model with help

In this paper we propose and study a three dimensional continuous time dynamical system modelling a three team consists of two preys and one predator with the assumption that during predation the members of both teams of preys help each other and the rate of predation of both teams are different. In this work we establish the local asymptotic stability of various equilibrium points to understand the dynamics of the model system. Different conditions for the coexistence of equilibrium solutions are discussed. Persistence, permanence of the system and global stability of the positive interior equilibrium solution are discussed by constructing suitable Lyapunov functional. At the end, numerical simulations are performed to substantiate our analytical findings.     

KCC theory and its application in a tumor growth model

In this study, we consider the stability of tumor model by using the standard differential geometric method that is known as Kosambi‐Cartan‐Chern (KCC) theory or Jacobi stability analysis. In the KCC theory, we describe the time evolution of tumor model in geometric terms. We obtain nonlinear connection, Berwald connection and KCC invariants. The second KCC invariant gives the Jacobi stability properties of tumor model. We found that the equilibrium points are Jacobi unstable for positive coordinates. We also discussed the time evolution of components of deviation tensor and the behavior of deviation vector near the equilibrium points.     

Mathematical Modeling and Analysis of an Epidemic Model with Quarantine, Latent and Media Coverage

Epidemic models are very important in today''s analysis of diseases. In this paper, we propose and analyze an epidemic model incorporating quarantine, latent, media coverage and time delay. We analyze the local stability of either the disease-free and endemic equilibrium in terms of the basic reproduction number $\mathcal{R}_{0}$ as a threshold parameter. We prove that if $\mathcal{R}_{0}<1,$ the time delay in media coverage can not affect the stability of the disease-free equilibrium and if $\mathcal{R}_{0}>1$, the model has at least one positive endemic equilibrium, the stability will be affected by the time delay and some conditions for Hopf bifurcation around infected equilibrium to occur are obtained by using the time delay as a bifurcation parameter. We illustrate our results by some numerical simulations such that we show that a proper application of quarantine plays a critical role in the clearance of the disease, and therefore a direct contact between people plays a critical role in the transmission of the disease.     

Asymptotic behavior of a Lotka–Volterra food chain stochastic model in the Chemostat

This article studies the asymptotic behavior of a stochastic Chemostat model with Lotka–Volterra food chain in which the dilution rate was influenced by white noise. The long-time behavior of the model is studied. Using Lyapunov function and Itô's formula, we show that there is a unique positive solution to the system. Moreover, the sufficient conditions for some population dynamical properties including the boundedness in mean and the stochastically asymptotic stability of the washout equilibrium were obtained. Furthermore, we show how the solutions spiral around the predator-free equilibrium and the positive equilibrium of deterministic system. Besides, the existence of the stationary distribution is proved for the considered model. Numerical simulations are introduced finally to support the obtained results.     

Stability Analysis of an Enterprise Competitive Model with Time Delay

A three-dimensional enterprise competitive model with time delay is considered. Where the delay is regarded as bifurcation parameters. By analyzing the corresponding characteristic equation of positive equilibrium,the local stability of positive equilibrium is regarded. By using the normal form method and center manifold theorem, we give the formula for determining the direction of the Hopf bifurcation and the stability of bifurcating periodic solutions. Numerical simulations are shown to illustrate the obtained results.     

Epidemic spreading of an SEIRS model in scale-free networks

An SEIRS epidemic model on the scale-free networks is presented, where the active contact number of each vertex is assumed to be either constant or proportional to its degree for this model. Using the analytical method, we obtain the two threshold values for above two cases and find that the threshold value for constant contact is independent of the topology of the underlying networks. The existence of positive equilibrium is determined by threshold value. For a finite size of scale-free network, we prove the local stability of disease-free equilibrium and the permanence of the disease on the network. Furthermore, we investigate two major immunization strategies, random immunization and targeted immunization, some similar results are obtained. The simulation shows the positive equilibrium is stable.     

Dynamics of the density dependent predator-prey system with Beddington-DeAngelis functional response

Two models of a density dependent predator-prey system with Beddington-DeAngelis functional response are systematically considered. One includes the time delay in the functional response and the other does not. The explorations involve the permanence, local asymptotic stability and global asymptotic stability of the positive equilibrium for the models by using stability theory of differential equations and Lyapunov functions. For the permanence, the density dependence for predators is shown to give some negative effect for the two models. Further the permanence implies the local asymptotic stability for a positive equilibrium point of the model without delay. Also the global asymptotic stability condition, which can be easily checked for the model is obtained. For the model with time delay, local and global asymptotic stability conditions are obtained.
