Exploring the Dynamics of Lotka-Volterra Systems: Efficiency, Extinction Order, and Predictive Machine Learning
Sepideh Vafaie, Deepak Bal, Michael A. S. Thorne +1
For years, a main focus of ecological research has been to better understand the complex dynamical interactions between species which comprise food webs. Using the connectance prop…

Eric Forgoston, Sarah Day, Peter C. de Ruiter +24
From 08-12 August, 2022, 32 individuals participated in a workshop, Stability and Fluctuations in Complex Ecological Systems, at the Lorentz Center, located in Leiden, The Netherla…
Tipping Cycles
Michael Thorne
Ecological systems are studied using many different approaches and mathematical tools. One approach, based on the Jacobian of Lotka-Volterra type models, has been a staple of mathe…
-Stable Matrices
Michael Thorne
-Stable matrices are introduced and it is shown that the real roots of the polynomials comprising the coefficients of the characteristic polynomial indicate the coefficient sign…
