Abstract

In this paper, we study the classical two-predators-one-prey model. The classical model described by a system of 3 ordinary differential equations can be reduced to a one-dimensional bimodal map. We prove that this map has at most two stable periodic orbits. Besides, we describe the structure of bifurcations of the map. Taking this mechanism into account, one can easily detect parameter regions where cycles with arbitrary high periods or chaotic attractors with arbitrary high numbers of bands coexist pairwise.
