This paper reports applying Minimax principle and impulsive differential inequality to derive the existence of multiple stationary solutions and the global stability of a positive stationary solution for a delayed feedback Gilpin-Ayala competition model with impulsive disturbance. The conclusion obtained in this paper reduces the conservatism of the algorithm compared with the known literature, for the impulsive disturbance is not limited to impulsive control.

We present a classical interspecific competition model. Individuals compete for a resource on a common patch and can go to a refuge. It is assumed that if species would remain on the competition patch, species 1 survives and species 2 would go extinct. Therefore, species 1 is Locally Superior Competitor (LSC) and species 2 Locally Inferior Competitor (LIC). We study the effects of density dependent dispersal from the competition patch to the refuge on the global outcome of competition. We study two cases. The first case considers LSC density dependent dispersal of the LIC trying to escape competition and going to its refuge when the LSC density is large. The second case considers aggressiveness of LIC leading to LIC density dependent dispersal of the LSC. We show that under some conditions, tactic 2 can allow the LIC to survive and even provoke global extinction of the LSC.

In this paper, stability of reaction-diffusion Gilpin-Ayala competition model with Dirichlet boundary value, involved in harmful species, was investigated. Employing Mountain Pass Lemma and linear approximation principle results in the local stability criterion of the null solution of the ecosystem which owns at least three stationary solutions. On the other hand, globally asymptotical stability criterion for the null solution of the ecosystem was derived by variational methods and LMI approach. It is worth mentioning that the stability criteria of null solution presented some useful hints on how to eliminate pests and bacteria. Finally, two numerical examples show the effectiveness of the proposed methods.
