Lotka-Volterra equations

  • Numerical solutions of Lotka–Volterra predator–prey model
  • Jul. 1, 2021 ~ Dec. 1, 2021
  • The Lotka-Volterra equations are a system of two first-order, nonlinear ODEs that describe the populations of predators and prey in a biological system. Over time, the populations of the predators and prey change according to the equations :

dx/dt = α x - β xy
dy/dt = δ xy - γ y
