In this paper, a dynamic two-stage Cournot duopoly game with R&D efforts is built. Then, the local stability of the equilibrium points are discussed, and the stability condition of the Nash equilibrium point is also deduced through Jury criterion. The complex dynamical behaviors of the built model are investigated by numerical simulations. We found that the unique route to chaos is flip bifurcation, and the increase of adjusting speed will cause the system to lose stability and produce more complex dynamic behavior. In addition, we also found the phenomenon of multistability in the given model. Several kinds of coexistence of attractors are shown. In particular, we found that boundary attractors can coexist with internal attractors, which also aggravates the complexity of the system. At last, the chaotic state in the built system has been successfully controlled.

A two-parameter autonomous jerk oscillator with a cosine hyperbolic nonlinearity is proposed in this paper. Firstly, the stability of equilibrium points of proposed autonomous jerk oscillator is investigated by analyzing the characteristic equation and the existence of Hopf bifurcation is verified using one of the two parameters as a bifurcation parameter. By tuning its two parameters, various dynamical behaviors are found in the proposed autonomous jerk oscillator including periodic attractor, one-scroll chaotic attractor, and coexistence between chaotic and periodic attractors. The proposed autonomous jerk oscillator has period-doubling route to chaos with the variation of one of its parameters and reverse period-doubling route to chaos with the variation of its other parameter. The proposed autonomous jerk oscillator is modelled on Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) and the FPGA chip statistics and phase portraits are derived. The chaotic and coexistence of attractors generated in the proposed autonomous jerk oscillator are confirmed by FPGA implementation of the proposed autonomous jerk oscillator. A good qualitative agreement is illustrated between the numerical and FPGA results. Finally synchronization of unidirectional coupled identical proposed autonomous jerk oscillators is achieved using adaptive sliding mode control method.

Mathematical modeling of Japanese encephalitis (JE) disease in human population with pig and mosquito has been presented in this paper. The proposed model, which involves three compartments of human (Susceptible, Vaccinated, Infected), two compartments of mosquito (Susceptible, Infected) and three compartments of the pig (Susceptible, Vaccinated, Infected). In this work, it is assumed that JE spreads between susceptible class and infected mosquitoes only. Basic results like boundedness of the model, the existence of equilibrium and local stability issues are investigated. Here, to measure the disease transmission potential in the population the basic reproduction number (R0) from the system has been analyzed w.r.t. control parameters both numerically and theoretically. The dynamical behaviors of the system have been analyzed by using the stability theory of differential equations and numerical simulations at equilibrium points. A numerical verification of results is carried out of the model under consideration.

The objective of the article is to study the dynamics of the proposed fractional-order Cournot triopoly game. Sufficient conditions for the existence and uniqueness of the triopoly game solution are obtained. Stability analysis of equilibrium points of the fractional-order game is also discussed. The conditions for the presence of Nash equilibrium point along with its global stability analysis are studied. The interesting dynamical behaviors of the arbitrary-order Cournot triopoly game are discussed. Moreover, the effects of seasonal periodic forcing on the game’s behaviors are examined. The 0–1 test is used to distinguish between regular and irregular dynamics of system behaviors. Numerical analysis is used to verify the theoretical results that are obtained, and revealed that the nonautonomous fractional-order model induces more complicated dynamics in the Cournot triopoly game behavior and the seasonally forced game exhibits more complex dynamics than the unforced one.

SIR epidemic models with distributed delay are proposed. Firstly, the dynamical behaviors of the model without vaccination are studied. Using the Jacobian matrix, the stability of the equilibrium points of the system without vaccination is analyzed. The basic reproduction numberRis got. In order to study the important role of vaccination to prevent diseases, the model with distributed delay under impulsive vaccination is formulated. And the sufficient conditions of globally asymptotic stability of “infection-free” periodic solution and the permanence of the model are obtained by using Floquet’s theorem, small-amplitude perturbation skills, and comparison theorem. Lastly, numerical simulation is presented to illustrate our main conclusions that vaccination has significant effects on the dynamical behaviors of the model. The results can provide effective tactic basis for the practical infectious disease prevention.

AbstractIn a homogenous product market, customers’ different demand elasticities may lead to different prices. This study examined price discrimination’s effect on equilibrium points in Cournot duopoly games by assuming that each firm charges K prices and adjusts its strategies based on bounded rationality. In consideration of price discrimination, two discrete dynamic game systems with 2K variables were introduced for players with homogenous or heterogenous expectations. The stability of the Nash equilibrium point was found to be independent of price discrimination. Given price discrimination, the stability of boundary stationary points for the system with homogenous players is different from that for the system with heterogenous players. Numerical simulations verified the critical point for the system with homogenous players from being stable to its bifurcation.

In this work, we analyze the dynamical behaviors of two five-parameter families of planar quadratic maps by utilizing strategies of symbolic computation. We are going to use computer algebra methods to clarify how to detect the stability of equilibrium points to analyze chaos and also the bifurcation of planar maps. Based on strategies for solving the systems in types of semi-algebraic and by utilizing an algorithmic approach, we obtain respectively for the two maps, sufficient conditions on the parameters to have a prescribed number of (stable) equilibrium points; necessary conditions on the parameters to undergo a certain type of bifurcation or to have chaotic behavior induced by snapback repeller.

In this paper, a decision-making competition game model concerning governments, agricultural enterprises, and the public, all of which participate in the reduction of nitrogen emissions in the watersheds, is established based on bounded rationality. First, the stability conditions of the equilibrium points in the system are discussed, and the stable region of the Nash equilibrium is determined. Then, the bifurcation diagram, maximal Lyapunov exponent, strange attractor, and sensitive dependence on the initial conditions are shown through numerical simulations. The research shows that the adjustment speed of three players’ decisions may alter the stability of the Nash equilibrium point and lead to chaos in the system. Among these decisions, a government’s decision has the largest effect on the system. In addition, we find that some parameters will affect the stability of the system; when the parameters become beneficial for enterprises to reduce nitrogen emissions, the increase in the parameters can help control the chaotic market. Finally, the delay feedback control method is used to successfully control the chaos in the system and stabilize it at the Nash equilibrium point. The research of this paper is of great significance to the environmental governance decisions and nitrogen reduction management.

In this paper, we investigate the complex dynamical behaviors of a biological network that is derived from innate immune responses and that couples positive and negative feedback loops. The stability conditions of the non-negative equilibrium points (EPs) of the system are obtained, using the theory of dynamical systems, and we deduce that no more than three stable EPs exist in this system. Through bifurcation analysis and numerical simulations, we find that the system presents rich dynamical behaviors, such as monostability, bistability and oscillations. These results reveal how positive and negative feedback cooperatively regulate the dynamical behavior of the system.

In this paper, a repeated two-stage oligopoly game where two boundedly rational firms produce homogeneous product and apply gradient adjustment mechanism to decide their individual R&D investment is considered. Results concerning the equilibrium in the built model and the stability are discussed. The effects of system parameters on the complex dynamical behaviors of the built game are analyzed. We find that the system can lose stability through a flip bifurcation or a Neimark–Sacker bifurcation. In addition, the coexistence of multiattractors is also discussed using the so-called basin of attraction. At the end of this research, the social welfare of the given duopoly game is also studied.
