Abstract:
A modification of the Lotka-Volterra model was proposed. The modification takes into account the factor of seasonal fluctuations in a "predator-prey" model. In this modification, interactions between species in summer are described by the Lotka-Volterra equations; in winter, individuals of both species extinct. This generalization makes the classic model unrough, which substantially extends the field of its application. The results of numerical simulation illustrate the statement formulated above.
