Reaction Diffusion Equation general solution
I have been struggling to find the general solution of the following BVP of reaction-diffusion equation:
$$\frac{\partial N}{\partial t}=\frac{\partial^2 N}{\partial x^2}+N(1-N)-\sigma N$$
$$N(0,x)=...

Can you modeling complicated dynamics without using differential/difference equations?
Let's imagine there is a phenomenon I want to understand. I have a few multivariate time series about the phenomenon but not a lot. I don't know how the variables are related to each other but from ...

Systems that Display Chaotic Behavior
I take a course in 'nonlinear dynamics and chaos'.
For our final project, we have to choose a dynamical system in that is nonlinear and specifically one that displays chaotic behavior.
I know that ...

Lyapunov Function at Fixed Point
Given the following system:
$$\frac{dx}{dt} = x\left(2-x-y\right)$$
$$\frac{dy}{dt} = x-y$$
I found fixed points $(0,0)$ and $(1,1)$. I then want to show that this function is Lyapunov for $x>0$ :...

Constructing a trapping region in a 2D dynamical system
Consider a system of the form $$\frac{d}{dt}x \enspace = \enspace 2-\left(b+1\right)x + ax^2y$$ $$\frac{d}{dt}y\enspace=\enspace bx-ax^2y$$
This is the context of some homework I have. I've already ...

What was the idea behind Logistic growth model?
The Malthus model is given by
$\frac{dP(t)}{dt}=rP(t)$, where $r$ is the growth rate. This model ignores the competition for resources among individuals. So, Verhulst came up with a model
$\frac{...

Partial differential equations that involve an infinite "continuum" of variables: "Each point in space contributes additional degrees of freedom"?
Page 11, Nonlinear Dynamics and Chaos, by Strogatz, says the following:
This is the domain of classical applied mathematics and mathematical physics where the linear partial differential equations ...

Improved model of a fishery: $\dot N=rN(1-\frac{N}{K})-H\frac{N}{A+N}$
Strogatz exercise $3.7.4.a:$
An improved model of a fishery is:
$$\dot N=rN\left(1-\frac{N}{K}\right)-H\frac{N}{A+N}.$$
a) Give a biological interpretation of the parameter $A$; what does it ...
