A global bifurcation theorem for Darwinian matrix modelsMeissen, Emily P., Salau, Kehinde R., Cushing, Jim M. 09 May 2016 (has links)
Motivated by models from evolutionary population dynamics, we study a general class of nonlinear difference equations called matrix models. Under the assumption that the projection matrix is non-negative and irreducible, we prove a theorem that establishes the global existence of a continuum with positive equilibria that bifurcates from an extinction equilibrium at a value of a model parameter at which the extinction equilibrium destabilizes. We give criteria for the global shape of the continuum, including local direction of bifurcation and its relationship to the local stability of the bifurcating positive equilibria. We discuss a relationship between backward bifurcations and Allee effects. Illustrative examples are given

Étude des conditions d'extinction d'un système prédateur-proie généralisé avec récolte contrôléeCourtois, Julien 09 1900 (has links)
Dans ce mémoire, nous étudions un système prédateur-proie de Gause généralisé avec une récolte de proie contrôlée et une fonction de réponse de Holling de type III généralisée. Nous introduisons une fonction de récolte contrôlée sur les proies tenant compte du nombre de proies et dépendant d'un seuil de récolte. Ceci permet de rendre le système réaliste, d'optimiser la récolte, et de prévenir la possibilité d'extinction des espèces que le système avec récolte constante pouvait avoir pour toutes valeurs de paramètres. Ce type de fonction de récolte implique a priori la manipulation d'un système discontinu: nous étudions donc des techniques de lissage de ces discontinuités par régularisation. Nous faisons d'abord un retour sur les systèmes sans et avec récolte de proie constante en traçant les diagrammes de bifurcations exacts et les portraits de phase de ces systèmes. Ensuite, nous étudions le système discontinu et les méthodes de régularisation afin de choisir la plus optimale. Finalement, nous assemblons le tout avec l'étude du système avec récolte de proie régularisé, en passant par l'étude complète du système avec approvisionnement de proie, et donnons les différents effets sur les portraits de phase selon les conditions initiales. / In this master thesis, we study a generalized Gause predator-prey system with controlled prey harvest and a generalized Holling response function of type III. We introduce a controlled prey harvesting function taking into account the number of preys with a harvesting threshold. This makes the system realistic, it optimizes the harvesting, and it prevents the possibility of species' extinction which exists in the system with constant harvest for all parameters. This type of harvesting function a priori implies handling a discontinuous system : therefore we study smoothing techniques of such discontinuities by regularization. We first return on systems without and with constant harvest by drawing the exact bifurcation diagrams and phase portraits of those systems. Then, we study the discontinuous system and the regularization methods in order to choose the optimal one. Finally, we put together everything by studying the regularized prey harvesting system through a complete study of the prey stocking system, and we highlight the different effects on the phase portraits under the initial conditions.

Parametric Study of Magnetic PendulumDelCioppo, Peter January 2007 (has links)
Thesis advisor: Andrzej Herczynski / The magnetic pendulum investigated in this experiment closely models various forms of the gravitational pendulum. However, the apparatus used in this experiment allows for greater insight as the constant and periodic forces can be easily varied. This project extends the previous work of Sang-Yoon Kim and Francis Moon on the magnetic pendulum by including an additional degree of freedom. This additional degree of freedom allows for a greater understanding of the bifurcation points observed. / Thesis (BS) — Boston College, 2007. / Submitted to: Boston College.

Bifurcações de campos vetoriais descontínuos / Bifurcations of discontinuous vector fieldsMaciel, Anderson Luiz 14 August 2009 (has links)
Seja M um conjunto compacto e conexo do plano que seja a união dos subconjuntos conexos N e S. Seja Z_L=(X_L,Y_L) uma família a um parâmetro de campos vetoriais descontínuos, onde X_L está definida em N e Y_L em S. Ambos os campos X_L e Y_L, assim como as suas dependências em L, são suaves i. e. de classe C^\\infty; a descontinuidade acontece na fronteira comum entre N e S. O objetivo deste trabalho é estudar as bifurcações que ocorrem em certas famílias de campos vetoriais descontínuos seguindo as convenções de Filippov. Aplicando o método da regularização, introduzido por Sotomayor e Teixeira e posteriormente aprofundado por Sotomayor e Machado à família de campos vetoriais descontínuos Z_L obtemos uma família de campos vetoriais suaves que é próxima da família descontínua original. Usamos esta técnica de regularização para estudar, por comparação com os resultados clássicos da teoria suave, as bifurcações que ocorrem nas famílias de campos vetoriais descontínuos. Na literatura há uma lista de bifurcações de codimensão um, no contexto de Filippov, apresentada mais completamente, no artigo de Yu. A. Kuznetsov, A. Gragnani e S. Rinaldi, One-Parameter Bifurcations in Planar Filippov Systems, Int. Journal of Bifurcation and Chaos, vol. 13, No. 8: 2157--2188, (2003). Alguns dos casos dessa lista já eram conhecidos por Kozlova, Filippov e Machado. Neste trabalho nos propomos a estudar as bifurcações de alguns dos casos, apresentados no artigo de Kuznetsov et. al, através do método da regularização dessas famílias. Nesta Tese consubstanciamos matematicamente a seguinte conclusão: As bifurcações das famílias descontínuas analisadas ficam completamente conhecidas através das bifurcações apresentadas pelas respectivas famílias regularizadas, usando recursos da teoria clássica suave. / Let M be a connected and compact set of the plane which is the union of the connected subsets N and S. Let Z_L=(X_L,Y_L) be a one-parameter family of discontinuous vector fields, where X_L is defined on N and Y_L on S. The two fields X_L, Y_L and their dependences on L are smooths, i. e., are of C^\\infty class; the discontinuity happens in the common boundary of N and S. The objective of this work is to study the bifurcations which occurs in certains families of discontinuous vector fields following the conventions of Filippov. Applying the regularization method, introduced by Sotomayor and Teixeira, to the family of discontinuous vector fields Z_L we obtain a family of regular vector fields which is close to the original family of discontinuous vector fields. In the literature there is a list of codimension one bifurcation, in the Filippov sense, presented more completely, in the article of Yu. A. Kuznetsov, A. Gragnani e S. Rinaldi, One-Parameter Bifurcations in Planar Filippov Systems, Int. Journal of Bifurcation and Chaos, vol. 13, No. 8: 2157--2188, (2003). Some of those cases was already known by Kozlova, Filippov and Machado. In this work we propose to study the bifurcations of some of those cases, presented in the article of Kuznetsov et. al, by the method of regularization of those families. In this thesis we justify mathematically the following conclusion: The bifurcations of the analysed discontinuous families are completelly known by the bifurcations contained in the respective regularized families, using the methods of the classical theory of regular vector fields.

Bifurcation perspective on topologically protected and non-protected states in continuous systemsLee-Thorp, James Patrick January 2016 (has links)
We study Schrödinger operators perturbed by non-compact (spatially extended) defects. We consider two models: a one-dimensional (1D) dimer structure with a global phase shift, and a two-dimensional (2D) honeycomb structure with a line-defect or "edge''. In both the 1D and 2D settings, the non-compact defects are modeled by adiabatic, domain wall modulations of the respective dimer and honeycomb structures. Our main results relate to the rigorous construction of states via bifurcations from continuous spectra. These bifurcations are controlled by asymptotic effective (homogenized) equations that underlie the protected or non-protected character of the states.
In 1D, the states we construct are localized solutions. In 2D, they are "edge states'' - time-harmonic solutions which are propagating (plane-wave-like) parallel to a line-defect or "edge'' and are localized transverse to it. The states are described as protected if they persist in the presence of spatially localized (even strong) deformations of the global phase defect (in 1D) or edge (in 2D). The protected states bifurcate from "Dirac points'' (linear/conical spectral band-crossings) in the continuous spectra and are seeded by an effective Dirac equation. The (more conventional) non-protected states bifurcate from spectral band edges are seeded by an effective Schrödinger equation.
Our 2D model captures many aspects of the phenomenon of topologically protected edge states observed in honeycomb structures such as graphene and "artificial graphene''. The protected states we construct in our 1D dimer model can be realized as highly robust TM- electromagnetic modes for a class of photonic waveguides with a phase-defect. We present a detailed computational study of an experimentally realizable photonic waveguide array structure.
