On chaos in Lotka-Volterra systems: an analytical approach (original) (raw)
ADS
Abstract
In this paper, we study Lotka-Volterra systems with N species and n resources. We show that the long time dynamics of these systems may be complicated. Depending on parameter choice, they can generate all types of hyperbolic dynamics, in particular, chaotic ones. Moreover, Lotka-Volterra systems can generate Lorenz dynamics. We state the conditions on the strong persistence of Lotka-Volterra systems when the number of resources is less than the number of species.
