A local agglomeration of cooperators can support the survival or spreading of cooperation, even when cooperation is predicted to die out according to the replicator equation, which is often used in evolutionary game theory to study the…
Many animals have patterned fur, feathers, or scales, such as the stripes of a zebra. Turing models, or reaction-diffusion systems, are a class of mathematical models of interacting species that have been successfully used to generate…
A general system of several ordinary differential equations coupled with a reaction-diffusion equation in a bounded domain with zero-flux boundary condition is studied in the context of pattern formation. These initial-boundary value…
Spatial distribution of the human population is distinctly heterogeneous, e.g. showing significant difference in the population density between urban and rural areas. In the historical perspective, i.e. on the timescale of centuries, the…
We show that the Turing patterns in reaction systems with subdiffusion can be replicated in an effective system with Markovian cross-diffusion. The effective system has the same Turing instability as the original system, and the same…
We construct a global bifurcation diagram of the plane differential system $$ {l} \dot x = x(1-x)-x y/(a+x^2), \dot y = y(\delta-\beta y/x), x(t)>0, y(t)>0, a>0, \delta>0, \beta>0, $$ which describes the predator-prey interaction.
Pattern formation in reaction-diffusion systems where the diffusion terms correspond to a Sturm-Liouville problem are studied. These correspond to a problem where the diffusion coefficient depends on the spatial variable: $\nabla \cdot…
Spatial and temporal pattern formation in reaction-diffusion systems is typically studied with two or more equations, as scalar reaction-diffusion equations confined to convex domains do not admit stable inhomogeneous states in time or…
This work examines the global dynamics of classical solutions of a two-stage (juvenile-adult) reaction-diffusion population model in time-periodic and spatially heterogeneous environments. It is shown that the sign of the principal…
We perform dynamical analysis on a stochastic Rosenzweig-MacArthur model driven by {\alpha}-stable L\'evy motion. We analyze the existence of the equilibrium points, and provide a clear illustration of their stability. It is shown that the…
This paper examines a discrete predator-prey model that incorporates prey refuge and its detrimental impact on the growth of the prey population. Age structure is taken into account for predator species. Furthermore, juvenile hunting as…
The paper is concerned with a system consisting of two coupled nonlinear parabolic equations with a cross-diffusion term, where the solutions at positive times define the initial states. The equations arise as steady state equations of an…
We describe pattern formation in ecological systems using a version of the classical Lotka-Volterra model characterized by a spatial scale which controls the predator-prey interaction range. Analytical and simulational results show that…
The Turing instability paradigm is revisited in the context of a multispecies diffusion scheme derived from a self-consistent microscopic formulation. The analysis is developed with reference to the case of two species. These latter share…
A model of six-species food web is studied in the viewpoint of spatial interaction structures. Each species has two predators and two preys, and it was previously known that the defensive alliances of three cyclically predating species…
The diffusion-driven Turing instability is a potential mechanism for spatial pattern formation in numerous biological and chemical systems. However, engineering these patterns and demonstrating that they are produced by this mechanism is…
In this work, we present and analyze a general framework for vegetation dynamics in arid and semi-arid ecosystems in which non-local interactions are purely competitive. The generality of the formulation enables a systematic search for…
We propose conditions for the emergence of Turing patterns in a domain that changes in size by homogeneous growth/shrinkage. These conditions to determine the bifurcation are based on considering the geometric change of a potential function…
Alan Turing's work in Morphogenesis has received wide attention during the past 60 years. The central idea behind his theory is that two chemically interacting diffusible substances are able to generate stable spatial patterns, provided…
This paper is concerned with a diffusive predator-prey model with predator-taxis and prey-taxis. Based on the Schauder fixed point theorem, we prove the global existence, uniqueness and boundedness of the classical solutions under the…
