Numerical modeling of dynamics of a population system with time delay

Abstract

Funding information UNWE project ; NID NI -21/2016 MOS Classification: 34C28Mathematical models of interacting populations are often constructed as systems of differential equations, which describe how populations change with time. Below we study such a model connected to the nonlinear dynamics of a system of populations in presence of time delay. The consequence of the presence of the time delay is that the nonlinear dynamics of the studied system become more rich, eg, new orbits in the phase space of the system arise, which are dependent on the time-delay parameters. In more detail, we introduce a time delay and generalize the model system of differential equations for the interaction of 3 populations based on generalized Volterra equations in which the growth rates and competition coefficients of populations depend on the number of members of all populations. Then we solve numerically the system with and without time delay. We use a modification of the method of Adams for the numerical solution of the system of model equations with time delay. By appropriate selection of the parameters and initial conditions, we show the impact of the delay time on the dynamics of the studied population system.

Inferred Rate of Default as a Credit Risk Indicator in the Bulgarian Bank System

“…In the context of ECL estimation, there has been a large volume of literature on PD forecasting, including normative documents (cf., e.g., [2]); studies of credit risk (cf., e.g., [4][5][6][7][8]); economic factors determining market performance (e.g., [9]); general forecasting techniques (e.g., [10][11][12][13][14][15]); and the relationship between point-in-time and through-the-cycle PD is developed in detail in, e.g., [16].…”

“…This evidence confirms the understanding that the larger retail portfolios are managed collectively with a great degree of automation. In addition, the alternative retail model (12) for Group 2 shows a strong positive momentum from one quarter to the next. As historic data become more ample in the future, the dynamic of IRD for Group 2 could be a subject of more intricate modeling.…”

Generic Noninteger Order Controller for Time-Delay Systems

“…Time delay usually appears in many real-time engineering systems in the state, the measurements, or the control input [1,2]. Delays are involved in challenging areas of robotics and real-time systems [3], which are generally sources of instability.…”
