We consider a stochastic individual based model where each predator searches during a random time and then manipulates its prey or rests. The time distributions may be non-exponential. An age structure allows to describe these interactions…
In this article, a non-smooth predator-prey dynamical system is considered. Here, we discuss about sustainable harvesting in a Filippov predator-prey system, which can produce yield and at the same time prevent over-exploitation of…
In this paper, the selective predator harvesting is considered in a predator prey system. The logistic growth of prey and ratio-dependent functional response is assumed. The dynamically varying effort is employed for selective harvesting of…
We explore the complex dynamical behavior of two simple predator-prey models of biological coevolution that on the ecological level account for interspecific and intraspecific competition, as well as adaptive foraging behavior. The…
This study presents a mathematical model that describes the relationship between the Puma concolor and its prey using delay differential equations, a Holling type III functional response, logistic growth for the prey, and a Ricker-type…
Drawing on the understanding of the logistic map, we propose a simple predator-prey model where predators and prey adapt to each other, leading to the co-evolution of the system. The special dynamics observed in periodic windows contribute…
A diffusive predator-prey system with predator interference and Neumann boundary conditions is considered in this paper. We derive some results on the existence and nonexistence of nonconstant stationary solutions. It is shown that there…
Most mechanistic predator-prey modelling has involved either parameterization from process rate data or inverse modelling. Here, we take a median road: we aim at identifying the potential benefits of combining datasets, when both population…
We study the effect of speciation, i.e. the introduction of new species through evolution into communities, in the setting of predator-prey systems. Predator-prey dynamics is classically well modeled by Lotka-Volterra equations, also when…
A swarm of preys when attacked by a predator is known to rely on their cooperative interactions to escape. Understanding such interactions of collectively moving preys and the emerging patterns of their escape trajectories still remain…
One of the best examples of traditional analysis of evolutionary stable strategies (ESS) is provided by the so called Dove-Hawk model. In this paper we present several enhancements to the model aimed at describing the evolution of…
We study a modified version of a prey-predator system with modified Leslie-Gower and Holling type II functional response studied by M.A. Aziz-Alaoui and M. Daher-Okiye. The modification consists in incorporating a refuge for preys, and…
We present numerical results based on a simplified ecological system in evolution, showing features of extinction similar to that claimed for the biosystem on Earth. In the model each species consists of a population in interaction with the…
This paper concerns pattern formation in a class of reaction-advection-diffusion systems modeling the population dynamics of two predators and one prey. We consider the biological situation that both predators forage along the population…
We address the question of an averaging principle for a general class of multi-scale hybrid predator-prey models. We consider prey-predator models where the kinetic of the prey population, described by a differential equation, is faster…
Using Mickens nonstandard method, we obtain a discrete family of nonautonomous eco-epidemiological models that include general functions corresponding to the predation of the infected and uninfected preys. We obtain results on the…
Forty years ago, Robert May questioned a central belief in ecology by proving that sufficiently large or complex ecological networks have probability of persisting close to zero. To prove this point, he analyzed large networks in which…
Explaining the evolution of cooperation in the strong altruism scenario, where a cooperator does not benefit from her contribution to the public goods, is a challenging problem that requires positive assortment among cooperators (i.e.,…
In this paper, an attempt is made to understand the dynamics of a three-dimensional discrete fractional-order eco-epidemiological model with Holling type II functional response. We first discretize a fractional-order predator-prey-parasite…
The goal of this paper is to explain how to derive the classical Rosenzweig-MacArthur's model by using a model with two groups of predators in which we can separate the vital dynamic and consumption of prey to describe the behavior of the…
