In this paper, we consider a reaction-diffusion model with Degn-Harrison reaction scheme. Some fundamental analytic properties of nonconstant positive solutions are first investigated. We next study the stability of constant steady-state solution to both ODE and PDE models. Our result also indicates that if either the size of the reactor or the effective diffusion rate is large enough, then the system does not admit nonconstant positive solutions. Finally, we establish the global structure of steady-state bifurcations from simple eigenvalues by bifurcation theory and the local structure of the steady-state bifurcations from double eigenvalues by the techniques of space decomposition and implicit function theorem.
In this paper, we are concerned with positive solutions of a predator–prey model with Crowley–Martin functional response under homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions. First, we prove the existence and reveal the structure of the positive solutions by using bifurcation theory. Then, we investigate the uniqueness and stability of the positive solutions for a large key parameter. In addition, we derive some sufficient conditions for the uniqueness of the positive solutions by using some specific inequalities. Moreover, we discuss the extinction and persistence results of time-dependent positive solutions to the system. Finally, we present some numerical simulations to supplement the analytic results in one dimension.
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.
