The system of two resources and and one consumer C is investigated within the Rosenzweig-MacArthur model with a Holling type II functional response. The rates of consumption of particular resources are normalized as to keep their sum constant. Dynamic switching is introduced as to increase the variable C in a process of finite speed. The space of parameters where both resources coexist is explored numerically. The results indicate that oscillations of C and mutually synchronized , which appear equal for the rates of consumption, are destabilized when these rates are modified. Then, the system is driven to one of fixed points or to a limit cycle with a much smaller amplitude. As a consequence of symmetry between the resources, the consumer cannot change the preferred resource once it is chosen.

Integrated pest management (IPM) combines chemical and biological control to maintain pest populations below economic thresholds. The impact of providing additional food for predators on pest-predator dynamics, along- side pesticide use, in the IPM context remains unstudied. To address this issue, in this work a theoretical model was developed using differential equations, assuming Holling type II functional response for the predator, with additional food sources included.

This paper explores a discrete-time system derived from the well-known continuous-time Rosenzweig-MacArthur model using the piecewise constant argument. Examining the impact of increasing carrying capacity and harvesting efforts, we uncover intricate phenomena, such as periodicity, quasiperiodicity, period-doubling, period-bubbling, and chaos. Our analysis reveals that increasing the carrying capacity of prey species can lead to both system stabilization and destabilization.

Higher-order interactions have been instrumental in characterizing the intricate complex dynamics in a diverse range of large-scale complex systems. Our study investigates the effect of attractive and repulsive higher-order interactions in globally and non-locally coupled prey-predator Rosenzweig-MacArthur systems. Such interactions lead to the emergence of complex spatiotemporal chimeric states, which are otherwise unobserved in the model system with only pairwise interactions.

We consider the system of the Rosenzweig-MacArthur equations with one consumer and two resources. Recently, the model has been generalized by including an optimization of the consumption rates β_{i} [P. Gawroński et al.

In this paper, we explore the local dynamics, chaos, and bifurcations of a discrete Rosenzweig-Macarthur prey-predator model. More specifically, we explore local dynamical characteristics at equilibrium solutions of the discrete model. The existence of bifurcations at equilibrium solutions is also studied, and that at semitrivial and trivial equilibrium solutions, the model does not undergo flip bifurcation, but at positive equilibrium solutions, it undergoes flip and Neimark-Sacker bifurcations when parameters go through certain curves.
