Periodic dynamics of a general switching dynamical system
Seasonal changes and cyclical human activities (such as periodic fishing bans, Wolbachia-based mosquito population control, and school term breaks) have significant impacts on population dynamics.

Flowering plants depend on some animals for pollination and contribute to nourish the animals in natural environments. We call these animals pollinators and build a plants-pollinators cooperative model with impulsive effect on a periodically evolving ...

Evaluating the Fidelity of Data-Driven Predator-Prey Models: A Dynamical Systems Analysis
In empirical predator-prey systems, understanding the inherent dynamics typically comes from analyzing a structural model fitted to observation data.

Bistability induced by generalist natural enemies can reverse pest invasions [PDF]
Reaction-diffusion analytical modeling of predator-prey systems has shown that specialist natural enemies can slow, stop and even reverse pest invasions, assuming that the prey population displays a strong Allee effect in its growth.

Spreading Speed, Traveling Waves, and Minimal Domain Size in\ud Impulsive Reaction-diffusion Models [PDF]
How growth, mortality, and dispersal in a species affect the species’ spread and persistence constitutes a central problem in spatial ecology. We propose impulsive reaction-diffusion equation models for species with distinct reproductive and dispersal ...

We consider a dynamic metapopulation involving one large population of size N surrounded by colonies of size \varepsilon_NN, usually called peripheral isolates in ecology, where N\to\infty and \varepsilon_N\to 0 in such a way that \varepsilon_NN\to\infty.

Splitting trees stopped when the first clock rings and Vervaat's transformation
We consider a branching population where individuals have i.i.d.\ life lengths (not necessarily exponential) and constant birth rate. We let $N_t$ denote the population size at time $t$. %(called homogeneous, binary Crump--Mode--Jagers process).

This article studies the quasi-stationary behaviour of multidimensional birth and death processes, modeling the interaction between several species, absorbed when one of the coordinates hits 0.
