Consider the nonautonomous semilinear evolution equation of type: $(\star) \; u'(t)=A(t)u(t)+f(t,u(t)), \; t \in \mathbb{R},$ where $ A(t), \ t\in \mathbb{R} $ is a family of closed linear operators in a Banach space $X$, the nonlinear term $f$, acting on some real interpolation spaces, is assumed to be almost periodic just in a weak sense (i.e. in Stepanov sense) with respect to $t$ and Lipschitzian in bounded sets with respect to the second variable. We prove the existence and uniqueness of almost periodic solutions in the strong sense (Bohr sense) for equation $ (\star) $ using the exponential dichotomy approach. Then, we establish a new composition result of Stepanov almost periodic functions by assuming just the continuity of $f$ in the second variable. Moreover, we provide an application to a nonautonomous system of reaction-diffusion equations describing a Lotka-Volterra predator-prey model with diffusion and time-dependent parameters in a generalized almost periodic environment.
We study the reaction-diffusion Lotka-Volterra predator-prey model with Dirichlet boundary condition. In the case of equal diffusion rates and equal growth rates, the synchronized steady state solution is proved to be locally asymptotically stable.
This paper investigates the global well-posedness of a class of reaction-advection-diffusion models with nonlinear diffusion and Lotka-Volterra dynamics. We prove the existence and uniform boundedness of the global-in-time solutions to the fully parabolic systems under certain growth conditions on the diffusion and sensitivity functions. Global existence and uniform boundedness of the corresponding parabolic-elliptic system are also obtained. Our results suggest that attraction (positive taxis) inhibits blowups in Lotka-Volterra competition systems.
We consider the classical two-species Lotka-Volterra competition-diffusion system in the strong-weak competition case. When the corresponding minimal speed of the traveling waves is not linear determined, we establish the precise asymptotic behavior of the solution of the Cauchy problem in two different situations: (i) one species is an invasive one and the other is a native species; (ii) both two species are invasive species.
This paper is concerned with the classical two-species Lotka-Volterra diffusion system with strong competition. The sharp dynamical behavior of the solution is established in two different situations: either one species is an invasive one and the other is a native one or both are invasive species. Our results seem to be the first that provide a precise spreading speed and profile for such a strong competition system. Among other things, our analysis relies on the construction of new types of supersolution and subsolution, which are optimal in certain sense.
In this paper, we study three two competing species Lotka-Volterra competition models on finite connected graphs, with Dirichlet, Neumann or no boundary conditions. We get that when time goes to infinity, either one specie extincts while the other becomes surviving or both competing species coexist, which depend crucially on the strengh of species' competitiveness and the size of the initial population under the Neumann boundary condition and the condition that there is no boundary condition. One of our results partially answer a question posed by Slav\'ık in [SIAM J. Appl. Dyn. Syst., 19 (202…
A diffusive Lotka-Volterra competition model is considered for the combined effect of spatial dispersal and spatial variations of resource on the population persistence and exclusion. First it is shown that in a two-species system in which the diffusion coefficients, resource functions and competition rates are all spatially heterogeneous, the positive equilibrium solution is globally asymptotically stable when it exists. Secondly the existence and global asymptotic stability of the positive and semi-trivial equilibrium solutions are obtained for the model with arbitrary number of species unde…

We consider the reaction-diffusion competition system in the so-called {\it critical competition case}. The associated ODE system then admits infinitely many equilibria, which makes the analysis intricate. We first prove the non-existence of {\it ultimately monotone} traveling waves by applying the phase plane analysis. Next, we study the large time behavior of the solution of the Cauchy problem with a compactly supported initial datum. We not only reveal that the "faster" species excludes the "slower" one (with a known {\it spreading speed}), but also provide a sharp description of the profil…

This paper is concerned with the existence of traveling wave solutions for diffusive two-species Lotka-Volterra systems with delay in both the reaction and diffusion terms without monotonicity. We extend the partial or cross monotone iteration method to systems that satisfy the partial quasi-monotone condition via construction appropriate upper and lower solutions. This is done by using Schauder's fixed point theorem.
We prove that the critical pulled front of Lotka-Volterra competition systems is nonlinearly asymptotically stable. More precisely, we show that perturbations of the critical front decay algebraically with rate $t^{-3/2}$ in a weighted $L^\infty$ space. Our proof relies on pointwise semigroup methods and utilizes in a crucial way that the faster decay rate $t^{-3/2}$ is a consequence of the lack of an embedded zero of the Evans function at the origin for the linearized problem around the critical front.
Traveling Wave Solutions for Delayed Reaction-Diffusion Systems and Applications to Lotka-Volterra Competition-Diffusion Models with Distributed Delays
In this work we investigate some asymptotic properties of an age-structured Lotka-Volterra model, where a specific choice of the functional parameters allows us to formulate it as a delayed problem, for which we prove the existence of a unique coexistence equilibrium and characterize the existence of a periodic solution. We also exhibit a Lyapunov functional that enables us to reduce the attractive set to either the nontrivial equilibrium or to a periodic solution. We then prove the asymptotic stability of the nontrivial equilibrium where, depending on the existence of the periodic trajectory,…
