Pattern formation in a predator-prey model with Allee effect and hyperbolic mortality on networked and non-networked environments

With the development of network science, Turing pattern has been proven to be formed in discrete media such as complex networks, opening up the possibility of exploring it as a generation mechanism in the context of biology, chemistry, and physics. Turing instability in the predator-prey system has been widely studied in recent years. We hope to use the predator-prey interaction relationship in biological populations to explain the influence of network topology on pattern formation. In this paper, we establish a predator-prey model with weak Allee effect, analyze and verify the Turing instability conditions on the large ER (Erdös-Rényi) random network with the help of Turing stability theory and numerical experiments, and obtain the Turing instability region. The results indicate that diffusion plays a decisive role in the generation of spatial patterns, whether in continuous or discrete media. For spatiotemporal patterns, different initial values can also bring about changes in the pattern. When we analyze the model based on the network framework, we find that the average degree of the network has an important impact on the model, and different average degrees will lead to changes in the distribution pattern of the population.

Pattern formation and bifurcation analysis of delay induced fractional-order epidemic spreading on networks

The spontaneous emergence of ordered structures, known as Turing patterns, in complex networks is a phenomenon that holds potential applications across diverse scientific fields, including biology, chemistry, and physics. Here, we present a novel delayed fractional-order susceptible-infected-recovered-susceptible (SIRS) reaction-diffusion model functioning on a network, which is typically used to simulate disease transmission but can also model rumor propagation in social contexts. Our theoretical analysis establishes the Turing instability resulting from delay, and we support our conclusions through numerical experiments. We identify the unique impacts of delay, average network degree, and diffusion rate on pattern formation. The primary outcomes of our study are: (i) Delays cause system instability, mainly evidenced by periodic temporal fluctuations; (ii) The average network degree produces periodic oscillatory states in uneven spatial distributions; (iii) The combined influence of diffusion rate and delay results in irregular oscillations in both time and space. However, we also find that fractional-order can suppress the formation of spatiotemporal patterns. These findings are crucial for comprehending the impact of network structure on the dynamics of fractional-order systems.

Pattern formation of parasite-host model induced by fear effect

In this paper, based on the epidemiological microparasite model, a parasite-host model is established by considering the fear effect of susceptible individuals on infectors. We explored the pattern formation with the help of numerical simulation, and analyzed the effects of fear effect, infected host mortality, population diffusion rate and reducing reproduction ability of infected hosts on population activities in different degrees. Theoretically, we give the general conditions for the stability of the model under non-diffusion and considering the Turing instability caused by diffusion. Our results indicate how fear affects the distribution of the uninfected and infected hosts in the habitat and quantify the influence of the fear factor on the spatiotemporal pattern of the population. In addition, we analyze the influence of natural death rate, reproduction ability of infected hosts, and diffusion level of uninfected (infected) hosts on the spatiotemporal pattern, respectively. The results present that the growth of pattern induced by intensified fear effect follows the certain rule: cold spots $\rightarrow$ cold spots-stripes $\rightarrow$ cold stripes $\rightarrow$ hot stripes $\rightarrow$ hot spots-stripes $\rightarrow$ hot spots. Interestingly, the natural mortality and fear effect take the opposite effect on the growth order of the pattern. From the perspective of biological significance, we find that the degree of fear effect can reshape the distribution of population to meet the previous rule.

Chemical-potential Multiphase Lattice Boltzmann Method with Superlarge Density Ratios

The liquid-gas density ratio is a key property of multiphase flow methods to model real fluid systems. Here, a chemical-potential multiphase lattice Boltzmann method is constructed to realize extremely large density ratios. The simulations show that the method reaches very low temperatures, at which the liquid-gas density ratio is more than 10^14, while the thermodynamic consistency is still preserved. Decoupling the mesh space from the momentum space through a proportional coefficient, a smaller mesh step provides denser lattice nodes to exactly describe the transition region and the resulting dimensional transformation has no loss of accuracy. A compact finite-difference method is applied to calculate the discrete derivatives in the mesh space with high-order accuracy. These enhance the computational accuracy of the nonideal force and suppress the spurious currents to a very low level, even if the density ratio is up to tens of thousands. The simulation of drop splashing verifies that the present model is Galilean invariant for dynamic flow field. An upper limit of the chemical potential is used to reduce the influence of nonphysical factors and improve the stability.
