We will investigate the stability and invariant manifolds of a new discrete host-parasitoid model. It is a generalization of the Beddington-Nicholson-Bailey model. Our study establishes analytically, for the first time, the stability of the coexistence fixed point.
Host parasite models are similar to host parasitoid models except that the parasite does not necessarily kill the host. Leslie/Gower model (Leslie and Gower in Biometrika 47(3/4):219-234, 1960) played a historical role in ecology. We consider the stability of Misra and Mitra's model (Misra and Mitra in Comput. Math. Appl. 52:525-538, 2006). We study this system analytically and improve the results of Misra and Mitra (Comput. Math. Appl. 52:525-538, 2006). MSC: 39A11; 92D25
Predator-prey models are similar to host-parasite and host-parasitoid models. We investigate the stability and invariant manifolds of a discrete predator-prey model by using center manifold theory which is not addressed in Çelik and Duman (Chaos Solitons
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
