On a population model in discrete periodic habitat. I. spreading speed and optimal dispersal strategy (2003.07777v1)

Published 12 Mar 2020 in math.AP

Abstract: Starting from an age-structured diffusive population growth law for single species in a discrete and periodic habitat, we formulate a stage structured population model with spatially periodic dispersal, mortality and recruitment. With a KPP type setting, after establishing the fundamental solution of a discretized heat equation with spatially periodic dispersal, we apply some recently developed dynamical system theories to obtain the existence of the spreading speed and its coincidence with the minimal speed of pulsating waves, as well as the variational characterization of the speed, by which we further analyze how the habitat periodicity influences the speed. In particular, there is a unique optimal dispersal strategy to maximize the speed.
