Existence of global solutions for a predator-prey model with cross-diffusion.
An SEIR model with periodic coefficients in epidemiology is considered. The global existence of periodic solutions with strictly positive components for this model is established by using the method of coincidence degree. Furthermore, a sufficient condition for the global stability of this model is obtained. An example based on the transmission of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is included.
We prove the existence of solutions to a differential-functional system which describes a wide class of multi-component populations dependent on their past time and state densities and on their total size. Using two different types of the Hale operator, we incorporate in this model classical von Foerster-type equations as well as delays (past time dependence) and integrals (e.g. influence of a group of species).
In this work we study a nonlocal reaction-diffusion equation arising in population dynamics. The integral term in the nonlinearity describes nonlocal stimulation of reproduction. We prove existence of travelling wave solutions by the Leray-Schauder method using topological degree for Fredholm and proper operators and special a priori estimates of solutions in weighted Hölder spaces.
We consider nonautonomous competitive Kolmogorov systems, which are generalizations of the classical Lotka-Volterra competition model. Applying Ahmad and Lazer's definitions of lower and upper averages of a function, we give an average condition which guarantees that all but one of the species are driven to extinction.
A two species non-autonomous competitive phytoplankton system with Beddington-DeAngelis functional response and the effect of toxic substances is proposed and studied in this paper. Sufficient conditions which guarantee the extinction of a species and global attractivity of the other one are obtained. The results obtained here generalize the main results of Li and Chen [Extinction in two dimensional nonautonomous Lotka-Volterra systems with the effect of toxic substances, Appl. Math. Comput. 182(2006)684-690]....
