In recent decades, many researchers have investigated the ecological models with three and more species to understand complex dynamical behaviors of ecological systems in nature. However, when they studied the models with three species, they have just considered the functional responses between prey and mid-predator and between mid-predator and top predator as the same type. However, in the paper, in order to describe more realistic ecological world, a three-species food chain system with two types of functional response, Holling type and Beddington-DeAngelis type, is considered. It is shown that this system is dissipative. Also, the local and global stability of equilibrium points of the system is established. In addition, conditions for the persistence of the system are found according to the existence of limit cycles. Some numerical examples are given to substantiate our theoretical results. Moreover, we provide numerical evidence of the existence of chaotic phenomena by illustrating bifurcation diagrams of system and by calculating the largest Lyapunov exponent.

The dynamics of an impulsively controlled three-species food chain system with the Beddington-DeAngelis functional response are investigated using the Floquet theory and a comparison method. In the system, three species are prey, mid-predator, and top-predator. Under an integrated control strategy in sense of biological and chemical controls, the condition for extinction of the prey and the mid-predator is investigated. In addition, the condition for extinction of only the mid-predator is examined. We provide numerical simulations to substantiate the theoretical results.

In this paper, we study mathematical model of ecology with a tritrophic food chain composed of a classical Lotka-Volterra functional response for prey and predator, and a Holling type-III functional response for predator and super predator. There are two equilibrium points of the system. In the parameter space, there are passages from instability to stability, which are called Hopf bifurcation points. For the first equilibrium point, it is possible to find bifurcation points analytically and to prove that the system has periodic solutions around these points. Furthermore the dynamical behaviors of this model are investigated. Models for biologically reasonable parameter values, exhibits stable, unstable periodic and limit cycles. The dynamical behavior is found to be very sensitive to parameter values as well as the parameters of the practical life. Computer simulations are carried out to explain the analytical findings.

The objective of the article is to study the dynamics of the proposed fractional-order Cournot triopoly game. Sufficient conditions for the existence and uniqueness of the triopoly game solution are obtained. Stability analysis of equilibrium points of the fractional-order game is also discussed. The conditions for the presence of Nash equilibrium point along with its global stability analysis are studied. The interesting dynamical behaviors of the arbitrary-order Cournot triopoly game are discussed. Moreover, the effects of seasonal periodic forcing on the game’s behaviors are examined. The 0–1 test is used to distinguish between regular and irregular dynamics of system behaviors. Numerical analysis is used to verify the theoretical results that are obtained, and revealed that the nonautonomous fractional-order model induces more complicated dynamics in the Cournot triopoly game behavior and the seasonally forced game exhibits more complex dynamics than the unforced one.

Using the discrete fractional calculus, a novel discrete fractional-order food chain model for the case of strong pressure on preys map is proposed. Dynamical behaviors of the model involving stability analysis of its equilibrium points, bifurcation diagrams and phase portraits are investigated. It is demonstrated that the model can exhibit a variety of dynamical behaviors including stable steady states, periodic and quasiperiodic dynamics. Then, a hybrid encryption scheme based on chaotic behavior of the model along with elliptic curve key exchange scheme is proposed for colored plain images. The hybrid scheme combines the characteristics of noise-like chaotic dynamics of the map, including high sensitivity to values of parameters, with the advantages of reliable elliptic curves-based encryption systems. Security analysis assures the efficiency of the proposed algorithm and validates its robustness and efficiency against possible types of attacks.

We propose a meminductor-based chaotic system. Theoretical analysis and numerical simulations reveal complex dynamical behaviors of the proposed meminductor-based chaotic system with five unstable equilibrium points and three different states of chaotic attractors in its phase trajectory with only a single change in circuit parameter. Lyapunov exponents, bifurcation diagrams, and phase portraits are used to investigate its complex chaotic and multi-stability behaviors, including its coexisting chaotic, periodic and point attractors. The proposed meminductor-based chaotic system was implemented using analog integrators, inverters, summers, and multipliers. PSPICE simulation results verified different chaotic characteristics of the proposed circuit with a single change in a resistor value.

In this work, three-dimensional nonlinear food chain system is numerically treated using the computational heuristic framework of artificial neural networks (ANNs) together with the proficiencies of global and local search approaches based on genetic algorithm (GA) and interior-point algorithm scheme (IPAS), i.e. ANN–GA–IPAS. The three-dimensional food chain system consists of prey populations, specialist predator and top-predator. The formulation of an objective function using the differential system of three-species food chain and its initial conditions is presented and the optimization is performed by using the hybrid computing efficiency of GA–IPAS. The achieved numerical solutions through ANN–GA–IPAS to solve the nonlinear three-species food chain system are compared with the Adams method to validate the exactness of the designed ANN–GA–IPAS. The comparison of the results is presented to authenticate the correctness of the designed ANN–GA–IPAS for solving the nonlinear three-species food chain system. Moreover, statistical representations for 40 independent trials and 30 variables validate the efficacy, constancy and reliability of ANN–GA–IPAS.

In this paper, the dynamical behavior of a three-dimensional fractional-order prey-predator model is investigated with Holling type III functional response and constant rate harvesting. It is assumed that the middle predator species consumes only the prey species, and the top predator species consumes only the middle predator species. We also prove the boundedness, the non-negativity, the uniqueness, and the existence of the solutions of the proposed model. Then, all possible equilibria are determined, and the dynamical behaviors of the proposed model around the equilibrium points are investigated. Finally, numerical simulations results are presented to confirm the theoretical results and to give a better understanding of the dynamics of our proposed model.

A predator-prey system with two preys and one predator is considered. Especially, two different types of functional responses, Holling type and Beddington-DeAngelis type, are adopted. First, the boundedness of system is showed. Stabilities analysis of system is investigated via some properties about equilibrium points and stabilities of two subsystems without one of the preys of system. Also, persistence conditions of system are found out and some numerical examples are illustrated to substantiate our theoretical results.

We investigate a three-species food chain system with density-dependent birth rate and impulsive effect concerning biological and chemical control strategy — periodic releasing of natural enemies or spraying pesticide at different fixed times. Conditions for the extinction of the prey and top predator are given. By using the Floquet theory of impulsive differential equations and small amplitude perturbation skills, we consider the local stability of the prey and top predator eradication periodic solution. Further, we obtain the conditions of permanence of the system.
