Morse index of steady-states to the SKT model with Dirichlet boundary conditions

This paper deals with the stability analysis for steady-states perturbed by the full cross-diffusion limit of the SKT model with Dirichlet boundary conditions. Our previous result showed that positive steady-states consist of the branch of small coexistence type bifurcating from the trivial solution and the branches of segregation type bifurcating from points on the branch of small coexistence type. This paper shows the Morse index of steady-states on the branches and constructs the local unstable manifold around each steady-state of which the dimension is equal to the Morse index.

Coexistence-segregation dichotomy in the full cross-diffusion limit of the stationary SKT model

This paper studies the Lotka-Volterra competition model with cross-diffusion terms under homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions. We consider the asymptotic behavior of positive steady-states as equal two cross-diffusion coefficients tend to infinity (so-called the full cross-diffusion limit). The first result shows that, at the full cross-diffusion limit, the set of positive steady-state solutions can be classified into two types: the small coexistence or the complete segregation. The small coexistence can be characterized by the set of positive solutions of a nonlinear elliptic equation, while the complete segregation can be characterized by the set of nodal solutions of another nonlinear elliptic equation. The second result concerns the global bifurcation structure of the 1d model with large cross-diffusion terms to show that the branch of small coexistence bifurcates from the trivial solution and many branches of complete segregation bifurcate from solutions on the branch of small coexistence. Finally, in order to verify the theoretical results, we chase some bifurcation branches numerically via the continuation software pde2path.
