Information Propagation in Predator-Prey Dynamics of Turbulent Plasma
Magnetically confined fusion plasmas exhibit predator-prey-like cyclic oscillations through the self-regulating interaction between drift-wave turbulence and zonal flow. To elucidate the detailed mechanism and causality underlying this phenomenon, we construct a simple stochastic predator-prey model that incorporates intrinsic fluctuations and analyze its statistical properties from an information-theoretic perspective. We first show that the model exhibits persistent fluctuating cyclic oscilla…

Modeling the Impact of NATO Policy Actions on Taliban Disinformation Campaigns with Lotka-Volterra Models
In this paper, we use an adaptation of the Lotka-Volterra Predator-Prey framework (via Affili Et. Al.) to model the relationship between Taliban disinformation campaigns and NATO's attempts to counter them. We find that aggression is a significantly preferred strategy over stagnation; this result should prompt decisionmakers to take strong stances against disinformation campaigns while maintaining a healthy defense against retribution. This leads us to propose the NATO Afghan Youth for Change p…

Complex dynamic transformations and strange attractors in a tri-trophic predator-prey system
Understanding predator-prey interactions is a fundamental issue in ecology, and the complex dynamics they induce are highly significant for maintaining community stability and self-organising biodiversity. Here, we investigate complex dynamical behaviors and bifurcation structures in a tri-trophic food web comprising a basal prey, an intermediate predator, and an omnivorous top predator. By combining Jacobian analysis with Hopf bifurcation theory, we derive explicit stability conditions and ide…

Analysis of Reaction-Diffusion Predator-Prey System under Random Switching

Abstract: This paper investigates the long-term dynamics of a reaction-diffusion predator-prey system subject to random environmental fluctuations modeled by Markovian switching. The model is formulated as a hybrid system of partial differential equations (PDEs), where the switching between different ecological regimes captures the randomness in environmental conditions. We derive a critical threshold parameter that determines whether the predator species will eventually go extinct or persist. We further characterize the system's asymptotic behavior by providing a detailed pathwise description of the omega-limit set of solutions. This analysis reveals how the effects of random switching shape the distribution and long-term coexistence of the species. Numerical simulations are provided to validate and illustrate the theoretical findings, highlighting transitions between different dynamical regimes. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first work that rigorously analyzes a spatially diffusive predator-prey model under Markovian switching, thereby bridging the gap between spatial ecology and stochastic hybrid PDE systems.

Turing-Turing Bifurcation Analysis and Normal Form in a Predator-Prey Model with Predator-Taxis and Prey Refuge
This paper investigates a predator-prey reaction-diffusion model incorporating predator-taxis and a prey refuge mechanism, subject to homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions. Our primary focus is the analysis of codimension-two Turing-Turing bifurcation and the calculation of its associated normal form for this model. Firstly, employing the maximum principle and Amann's theorem, we rigorously establish the local existence and uniqueness of classical solutions. Secondly, utilizing linear stabili…

Stabilization of Age-Structured Competing Populations
Age-structured models represent the dynamic behaviors of populations over time and result in integro-partial differential equations (IPDEs). Such processes arise in biotechnology, economics, demography, and other domains. Coupled age-structured IPDE population dynamics with two or more species occur in epidemiology and ecology, but have received little attention thus far. This work considers an exponentially unstable model of two competing predator populations, formally referred to in the liter…

Paper-Scissors-Stone Model for Interacting Population and its Limit Theorem
This paper treats a random collision model of three species, which is represented by the random time change of three standard Poisson processes. The prey-predator relation in the random collision model looks like paper-scissors-stone game, and the model is called the paper-scissors model. At first, we investigate the stochastic structure of our model. By using stochastic calculus, the model is decomposed into a semi-martingale, and we prove a weak law of large numbers and a central limit theore…

Extracting a stochastic model for predator-prey dynamic of turbulence and zonal flows with limited data
Understanding the interaction between turbulence and zonal flows is critical for modeling turbulence transport in fusion plasmas, often described through predator-prey dynamics. However, traditional deterministic models like the Lotka-Volterra equations simplify this interaction and fail to capture the small fluctuations in simulation data. In this study, we develop a neural network model based on stochastic differential equations (SDEs) to represent the predator-prey dynamics using limited dat…

Unraveling the temporal dependence of ecological interaction measures
Species interactions (ranging from direct predator prey relationships to indirect effects mediated by the environment) are central to ecosystem balance and biodiversity. While empirical methods for measuring these interactions exist, their interpretability and limitations remain unclear. Here we examine the empirical matrix of pairwise interactions, a widely used tool, and analyze its temporal variability. We show that apparent fluctuations in interaction strength (and even shifts in interactio…

Periodicity in delayed self-regulation is a predator-prey process

Periodicity in delayed self-regulation is a predator-prey process
We unify two different periodicity mechanisms: delayed self-regulation and planar predator-prey feedback. We consider scalar delay differential equations $\dot x(t) = rf(x(t), x(t - 1))$ where $f$ is monotone in the delayed component. Due to a Poincaré--Bendixson theorem for monotone delayed feedback systems, the typical global dynamics present periodic orbits as the delay parameter $r$ increases. In this article, we show that, as we vary the delay, each connected component of periodic orbits …

Self-induced Floquet states via three-wave processes in synthetic antiferromagnets
We present a mechanism for self-induced Floquet states involving acoustic and optical modes in synthetic antiferromagnets. By driving optical modes off-resonantly with radiofrequency fields in the canted antiferromagnetic state, limit cycles arising from the predator-prey dynamics of the acoustic and optical mode populations can appear. The cyclic growth and decay of these mode populations induce a time-periodic modulation of the canted state, which subsequently generates Floquet states. These …

High multiplicity and global structure of coexistence states in a predator-prey model with saturation
This paper establishes that, under the appropriate range of values of the parameters involved in the formulation of the model, a diffusive predator-prey system with saturation can have an arbitrarily large number of coexistence states for sufficiently large saturation rates. Moreover, it ascertains the global structure of the set of coexistence states in the limiting system as the saturation rate blows-up.

Prey-taxis VS a Shortwave External Signal in Multiple Dimensions
We consider a model of the predator--prey community with prey-taxis. By that we mean the capability of the predators to get moving in a certain direction on the macroscopic level in response to the prey density gradients. Additionally, we suppose the same kind of sensitivity with respect to one more signal, called external, the production of which goes on independently of the community state. Such a signal can be due to the spatiotemporal inhomogeneity of the environment that results from the n…
