The Hugenholz-Boltzmann-evolution is generalized to strongly interacting systems on the lattice. Under appropriate assumptions states stable under this evolution are shown to satify the KMS-condition. How far these assumptions are…

The eigenvalue spectrum of a random matrix often only depends on the first and second moments of its elements, but not on the specific distribution from which they are drawn. The validity of this universality principle is often assumed…
Game theory ideas provide a useful framework for studying evolutionary dynamics in a well-mixed environment. This approach, however, typically enforces a strictly fixed overall population size, deemphasizing natural growth processes. We…

We consider a system of $N$ individuals consisting of $S$ species that interact pairwise: $x_m+x_\ell \rightarrow 2x_m\,\,$ with arbitrary probabilities $p_m^\ell $. With no spatial structure, the master equation yields a simple set of rate…
The aim of this paper is to give a sufficient and necessary condition of the generalized polynomial Li\'enard system with a global center (including linear typer and nilpotent type). Recently, Llibre and Valls [J. Differential Equations,…
We show that any system of ODEs can be modified whilst preserving its homogeneous Darboux polynomials. We employ the result to generalise a hierarchy of integrable Lotka-Volterra systems.
The generalized Lotka-Volterra (gLV) equations model the microbiome as a collection of interacting ecological species. Here we use a particular experimentally-derived gLV model of C. difficile infection (CDI) as a case study to generate…

A detailed analysis of the stability of equilibriums and bifurcations of the two-dimensional autonomous competitive Lotka-Volterra dynamical system is performed. Necessary and sufficient conditions are determined for equilibriums (without…

In this paper, plane polynomial systems having a singular point attracting all orbits in positive time are classified up to topological equivalence. This is done by assigning a combinatorial invariant to the system (a so-called "feasible…
We consider a dynamical system obtained by the random switching between $N$ Lotka-Volterra food chains. Our key assumption will be that at least two vector fields only differ on the resources allocated to the growth rate of the first…
