A general monotone scheme for elliptic systems with applications to ecological models

Abstract: SynopsisWe consider weakly-coupled elliptic systems of the typewith each fi being either an increasing or a decreasing function of each uj. Assuming the existence of coupled super- and subsolutions, we prove the existence of solutions, and provide a constructive iteration scheme to approximate the solutions. We then apply our results to study the steady-states of two-species interaction in the Volterra–Lotka model with diffusion.

“…Observe that this method applies for cooperative elliptic systems, which is the case here, since the functions f are quasi-monotone. For the reader's convenience we state the following result, which will be sufficient for our purposes (see for example [23] for more general statement).…”

“…The dependence on the space variable x of these coefficient functions represents the fact that the two species u and v are competing in a spatially heterogeneous environment. In a spatially homogeneous environment, these coefficient functions should be replaced by positive constants; in such a case, the above system is known as the classical Lotka-Volterra competition model with diffusion, which has attracted considerable amounts of study, see, for example, [BB1,BB2,CL,DD,DB,EFL,GL,HL,KL,RP] and the references therein.…”
