characteristic number is proportional to the amount of available food. (But since we are talking of an average birth rate for the entire predator population, shouldn't that be the amount of available food per predator, ie y/x?) However, this explanation only appears (approximately) valid for moderate ranges of populations: As I've already mentioned we ought to include a y factor if y is small. Similarly, we ought to model a cap on the birth rate in case of very abundant prey.

biology (in part by replacing previous text and figure). I also have replaced the words "baboon" and "cheetah" with "rabbit" and "fox". This is in the first place to keep to one example: the baboons didn't add anything (there is nothing baboon specific in the example), and now the predator ties in with the atto-fox. Also because the cheetah is not a main predator of the baboon. I hope this improves the quality of the article. --

slowly approaching 1. This is the best equation to use, unless you are looking for an easy equation. This ignores the effect that if carrots get low, the rabbits will have a hard time finding them. if you want to deal with that effect, see the F' equations below for ideas. In many situations, the foxes keep the rabbits from eating too many carrots.

Invasive Spices, I am ok with removal. (I'm not convinced the other sources we have on this, at the beginning of the section, are so great either.) Ami-de-la-Terre, it is often the case that people in one field re-invent ideas that have been known in other fields for a long time, thereby losing the

Incidentally, attentive readers may also have noticed that the population numbers in some of the graphs fall below 1. Actually, they can become infinitely small in this model, and still no-one will go extinct. This is a general problem with these types of population models. In computer simulations it

Hi,you provide two references, for the exact solutions. The first reference has a broken link, and the second one links to an article by 'Martin J. Gander' that gives an analytical solution without derivation , and cites: A. Steiner and M. Arrigoni, \Die Losung gewisser Rauber-Beute-Systeme", Studia

You are right that the delta-x-y-term shows dependency on food supply for the predators, whereby delta is the conversion-efficiency of prey into predators. This, is a simple mass-action term, like in chemical kinetics. It is the simplest way of stating that the birth-rate of predators depends on the
819:
Or maybe the x-y term is meant to show the dependency on food supply. (This would make sense, else why introduce the relationships predator and prey). In this case, the xy proportionality of the term would seem to say that predators on average have some characteristic number of progeny and that this
815:
More troubling is question, why the birth rate is proportional to meetings between predator and prey. Wouldn't it be more logical to say that births among predators are proportional to meetings between male and female predators, i.e. proportional to y? However, this would seem to be only appropriate
811:
Most simply, it seems to be saying that the Delta-x-y term represents the totality of change in y. This is clearly in error, since there is a second term as well. However, this problem is certainly just a matter of carelessness. Presumably the writer meant that the Delta-x-y term represents the rate

Finding the regions in (b,e,f,h,m,p) space where these two events happen would be nice, but likely involve a lot of UGLY work, maybe Monte Carlo simulation. (BTW be sure to use a GOOD random number generator. Contact me for advice. It might be a good time to find some realistic value ranges for b,

C3. C' = a ( 1 - C/maxC ) C - bR. This is called a 'logistic' equation, it assumes a 'maximum mass of carrots' called MaxC. This is appropriate in the likely event that you are dealing with a finite area for your ecology experiment. This ODE gives an 'S shaped curve', rapidly growing from 0, and

I can't believe this title said "Lotka–Volterra equation", with no final "s". I changed it. This is not about a type of equation of which any particular instance is a "Lotka–Volterra equation", nor about just one equation. In either of those situations, the singular title would be required under

You have to eliminate the time dependance by dividing the dy/dt equation by dx/dt equation, which by the chain rule gives a single seperable equation for dy/dx. When you seperate this and integrate you are left with an equation in x and y which you can relate to a third variable (magnitude) giving

R2. R' = R / = R / . This is a pretty good equation for the rabbit food aspect, ignoring the foxes for the moment. Here -e indicates how fast rabbits starve if the ratio C/R goes to zero, and f/g indicates how fast rabbit population grows when there are plenty of carrots to go around. For a

I agree that Leconte is a strange choice for a source here. There are several contradictory factors: Highly regarded journal from a legitimate Association; entirely incorrect journal subject area; physics is math; recentism; utter lack of cites. I think we should ignore the other factors and rm on

The point (and also perhaps the problem) of the Lotka-Volterra model is that it is a highly simplified model. It is nice for showing that a predator-prey relationship can produce oscillating behaviour, but other than that it doesn't have much biological significance. Even less if the nullclines of

I reorganised the first section to bring various important parts mentioned downstream together, and made the text more relevant to a non-mathematical audience. I have added a sub-section on the biological relevance of the model by providing some examples how the behaviour of the model relates to

I am the contributor of the analytical solution contribution. Obviously, the cited source is recent (2022) which explains the lack of cites. About 'entirely incorrect journal subject area', I disagree, the Lotka-Volterra model may have been developed first in the ecology field, but has becomes a

Next you classify this critical point. Find the three eigenvalues of the frechet derivative (this is a three by three matrix of partial derivatives) evaluated at the CP. If you are looking for a cyclical population situation, you probably need a complex conjugate pair with positive real part, or
251:
Before working with this set of equations, simplify by 'scaling away parameters'. You can scale four paramiters (C, R, F, and time) which will allow you to eliminate 4 of the 11 parameters. The simplist is to measure C in units of maxC, so that maxC becomes 1. There are many ways to simplify the

F2. F' = F / . Here -m is the death rate due to starvation when there are no rabbits around. p/n is the birth - (old age) death rate for well fed rabbits. p and n can be adjusted to fit whatever. For example, if you have a guess for what the R/F ratio is that keeps the Fox population

A. Lotka originally proposed this equation in 1910 in chemistry and extended it in 1920 to biological interactions, most definitely not as late as 1925(cited two different ways). This article could do with at lot more citations and not just some vague ref list at the end.

for modelling in cases where predator-predator encounters are generally infrequent (in comparison with the period of gestation). For instance, the predators may be an endangered species. If predator-predator encounters are very frequent, we could ignore this term.
219:
Rabbit equations. Most Lotka-Volterra models use an absurd simple Rabbit - fox interaction term of R*F, which would indicate each fox eats a fixed proportion of all the rabbits. The only good thing about that is it leads to the simplest nonlinear term.
345:
R Kelsey's contribution is a great example of a population model with three species. But it does not belong in this article. The Lotka-Volterra model has only a predator and a prey, per definition (otherwise it's not a Lokta-Volterra model). :-) See

In any case, I think I've succeeded in making my point that the applicability for these equations needs to be addressed carefully and thorough if intelligent newcomers to the subject (I include myself) are to be able to learn from the article.
252:
remaining equations. For example, letting replacing R with gR and F with (g/k)F removes the parameters in the denominators of the R' equation. Scaling time by a eliminates the a. This leads to ( the parameters will now have different values ):
325:
better than the article itself; both in terms of depth, as well as in clarifying the physical significance of each term. What a shame R Kelsey is not accessible, as he deserves to be encouraged to adapt his contribution to the main article.
837:
the ODEs are perpendicular, as shown in many textbooks (mathematically elegant perhaps, but biologically unlikely). I think it needs to be mentioned in the article that this model is meant as a paradigm system, not a realistic model.
332:
BTW my initial reaction is to be skeptical of the independence of the parameter n (RK writes takes note that this is 'interesting'. I have not done the work, but I can't suppress suspicion that this may mask a computational fault.)

I know the competetive version of the equations produce chaos in 4d and up systems. I've also run across papers indicating that higher dimensional systems will also produce period doubling and limit cycles.

C2. C' = aC - bR. This assumes a = p - d is the difference of the propagation rate and the 'old age' death rate for carrots. This implies unlimited exponential growth in the abscence of rabbits.

R4. R' = R / - hRF / . Here each fox eats h rabbits if there are plenty to go around, and 0 as the R/F ratio goes to zero. k is a free parameter to help fit whatever curve you thing is best.

I also regret that R Kelsey did not leave a reference. His last paragraph points out a way: I can surely anticipate the outcome, but would be glad to have a book as my companion enroute.

C1. C' = a - bR. This assumes the number of carrots is fixed ( they do not get killed, or propagate), a is the total growth due to sunlight, and b is how much is eaten by a rabbit.

prey density (because higher densities increase the probability of a predator catching a prey). For a more realistic model this should indeed include a saturation term.

level sets of the origional equations. Since f(x) and f(y) approach 0 as x&y approach infinity, the level curve is closed. This translates into the closed orbits.

That's correct and I noticed it too. All the complex eigen values reveal is that the fixed point is periodic, but does not reveal if it is a center or a stable spiral.
