Persistence in mean and extinction on stochastic competitive Gilpin-Ayala systems with regime switching

Abstract

We are interested in the persistence in mean and extinction for a stochastic competitive Gilpin-Ayala system with regime switching. Based on the stochastic LaSalle theorem and the space-decomposition method, we derive generalized sufficient criteria on persistence in mean and extinction. By constructing a novel Lyapunov function we establish sufficient criteria on partial persistence in mean and partial extinction for the system. Finally, we provide two examples to demonstrate the feasibility and validity of our proposed methods.
