Structural Sensitivity of Chaotic Dynamics in Hastings–Powell’s Model
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The classical Hastings–Powell model is well known to exhibit chaotic dynamics in a three-species food chain. Chaotic dynamics appear through period-doubling bifurcation of stable coexistence limit cycle around an unstable coexisting equilibrium point. A specific choice of parameter value leads to a situation, where the chaotic attractor disappears through a collision with an unstable limit cycle originated due to subcritical Hopf-bifurcation around the coexistence equilibrium. As a consequence, the top predator goes to extinction. The main objective of this work is to explore the structural sensitivity of this phenomenon by replacing the Holling-type II functional responses with Ivlev functional responses. In this work, we have shown the existence of two Hopf-bifurcation thresholds and numerically verified the existence of an unstable limit cycle. The model with Ivlev functional responses does not indicate any possibility of extinction of the top predator due to any collision of chaotic attractor with the unstable limit cycle for the chosen range of parameter values. Moreover, the model with Ivlev functional responses depicts an interesting scenario of bistable oscillatory coexistence.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
