Abstract
A modified Leslie–Gower model with cross-diffusion and Allee effect is studied. First temporal dynamics of the system is analyzed and the existence of equilibrium points and their corresponding stability analysis are performed. Variation in the Allee effect parameter results in saddle node and Hopf bifurcations. Further, the spatio-temporal model is analyzed and observed that as cross-diffusion gradually increases, prey and predator disperse over the region. Turing instability conditions are derived for cross-diffusion and stability analysis of the amplitude equations is computed to identify the type of the Turing pattern. Analytical conclusions are validated through numerical simulations. As the Allee effect increases, it affects the spatial and temporal dynamics of the prey population. Turing pattern changes from spots to stripes, indicating a large dispersion and a variety of predator interactions, which reduces confinement to secure small areas. In the absence of cross-diffusion, there will be a positive correlation between prey and predator populations. In contrast, when cross-diffusion is present, a negative correlation between prey and predator populations arises.
期刊介绍:
The aim of the journal is to provide an international forum for the dissemination of up-to-date information in the fields of the mathematics and computers, in particular (but not exclusively) as they apply to the dynamics of systems, their simulation and scientific computation in general. Published material ranges from short, concise research papers to more general tutorial articles.
Mathematics and Computers in Simulation, published monthly, is the official organ of IMACS, the International Association for Mathematics and Computers in Simulation (Formerly AICA). This Association, founded in 1955 and legally incorporated in 1956 is a member of FIACC (the Five International Associations Coordinating Committee), together with IFIP, IFAV, IFORS and IMEKO.
Topics covered by the journal include mathematical tools in:
•The foundations of systems modelling
•Numerical analysis and the development of algorithms for simulation
They also include considerations about computer hardware for simulation and about special software and compilers.
The journal also publishes articles concerned with specific applications of modelling and simulation in science and engineering, with relevant applied mathematics, the general philosophy of systems simulation, and their impact on disciplinary and interdisciplinary research.
The journal includes a Book Review section -- and a "News on IMACS" section that contains a Calendar of future Conferences/Events and other information about the Association.
