Abstract

Ecological systems have all the properties to produce chaotic dynamics. To predict the chaotic behavior in an ecological system and its possible control mechanism is interesting. Aziz-Alaoui [1] considered a tri-trophic food-chain model with modified Leslie-Gower type growth rate for top-predator population and established the chaotic dynamics exhibited by the model system for a certain choice of parameter values. We have modified the said model by incorporating density dependent death rate for predator population. Our mathematical findings reveal the fact that there are two coexisting equilibrium points one of which is a source and the other one is a sink. The positive equilibrium point which is sink is actually globally asymptotically stable under certain parametric conditions. Numerical experiment analysis shows that the model system are capable to produce chaotic dynamics when the rate of intra specific completion is very low and chaotic dynamics disappears for a certain value of the rate of intra specific completion for predator species. Our results suggest that the consideration of density dependent death rate for predator species have the ability to control the chaotic dynamics.
