Nontrivial Effect of Time-Varying Migration on the Three Species Prey-Predator System

【摘要】 Migration is ubiquitous in ecosystem and often plays an important role in biological diversity. In this work,by introducing a time-varying migration rate associated with the difference of subpopulation density into a prey, we study the Hopf bifurcation and the critical phenomenon of predator extinction of the three species prey-predator system,which consists of a predator, a prey and a mobile prey. It is found that the system with migration exhibits richer dynamic behaviors than that without migration, including two Hopf bifurcations and two limit cycles. Interestingly,the parameters of migration have a drastically influence on the critical point of predator extinction, determining the coexistence of species. Moreover, the population evolution dynamics of one-dimensional multiple prey-predator system are also discussed.更多还原
