论文摘要
我们表明,通过类似于抑制的谐波振荡器的比喻,可以将许多模型,流行病学和植物生物学用于Lotka-volterra Predator-Prey模型的``抑制作用''版本。
We show that a number of models in virus dynamics, epidemiology and plant biology can be presented as ``damped" versions of the Lotka-Volterra predator-prey model, by analogy to the damped harmonic oscillator. The analogy deepens with the use of Lyapunov functions, which allow us to characterize their dynamics and even make some estimates.
