Random and stochastic disturbances on the input flow in chemostat models with wall growth (2401.06943v1)

Abstract: In this paper we analyze a chemostat model with wall growth where the input flow is affected by two different stochastic processes: the well-known standard Wiener process, which leads into several drawbacks from the biological point of view, and a suitable Orsntein-Uhlenbeck process depending on some parameters which allow us to control the noise to be bounded inside some interval that can be fixed previously by practitioners. Thanks to this last approach, which has already proved to be very realistic when modeling other simplest chemostat models, it will be possible to prove the persistence and coexistence of the species in the model without needing the theory of random dynamical systems and pullback attractors needed when dealing with the Wiener process which, moreover, does not provide much information about the long-time behavior of the systems in many situations.
