The Lotka–Volterra equations, also known as the predator–prey equations, are a pair of first-order nonlinear differential equations, frequently used to describe the dynamics of biological systems in which two species interact, one as a predator and the other as prey. The populations change through time according to the pair of equations:

History

The Lotka–Volterra predator–prey model was initially proposed by Alfred J. Lotka in the theory of autocatalytic chemical reactions in 1910. This was effectively the logistic equation, originally derived by Pierre François Verhulst. In 1920 Lotka extended the model, via Andrey Kolmogorov, to "organic systems" using a plant species and a herbivorous animal species as an example and in 1925 he used the equations to analyse predator–prey interactions in his book on biomathematics. The same set of equations was published in 1926 by Vito Volterra, a mathematician and physicist, who had become interested in mathematical biology. Volterra's enquiry was inspired through his interactions with the marine biologist Umberto D'Ancona, who was courting his daughter at the time and later was to become his son-in-law. D'Ancona studied the fish catches in the Adriatic Sea and had noticed that the percentage of predatory fish caught had increased during the years of World War I (1914–18). This puzzled him, as the fishing effort had been very much reduced during the war years. Volterra developed his model independently from Lotka and used it to explain d'Ancona's observation.

洛特卡-沃尔泰拉捕食-被捕食模型最初是由阿尔弗雷德 · j · 洛特卡于1910年在自催化化学反应理论中提出的。这实际上就是逻辑方程式，最初由皮埃尔·弗朗索瓦·韦吕勒推导出来。1920年，Lotka 通过安德雷·柯尔莫哥洛夫，将这个模型扩展到“有机系统” ，以植物物种和草食动物物种为例，1925年，他在其关于生物数学的书中用这些方程分析了捕食者-猎物的相互作用。1926年，对数学生物学感兴趣的数学家和物理学家维托 · 沃尔泰拉发表了同样的方程组。沃尔泰拉的调查灵感来自于他与海洋生物学家翁贝托•安科纳(Umberto d’ ancona)的互动。安科纳当时正在追求自己的女儿，后来成了他的女婿。D’ ancona 研究了亚得里亚海的鱼类捕获量，并注意到在第一次世界大战期间(1914-1918年)捕获的捕食性鱼类的百分比有所增加。这使他感到困惑，因为在战争年代，捕鱼的努力大大减少了。沃尔泰拉独立于 Lotka 发展了他的模型，并用它来解释 d’ ancona 的观察。

The model was later extended to include density-dependent prey growth and a functional response of the form developed by C. S. Holling; a model that has become known as the Rosenzweig–MacArthur model. Both the Lotka–Volterra and Rosenzweig–MacArthur models have been used to explain the dynamics of natural populations of predators and prey, such as the lynx and snowshoe hare data of the Hudson's Bay Company and the moose and wolf populations in Isle Royale National Park.

该模型后来被扩展到包括密度依赖的猎物生长和由 C.s. 霍林开发的功能性反应形式，这个模型后来被称为 Rosenzweig-MacArthur 模型。Lotka-Volterra 模型和 Rosenzweig-MacArthur 模型都被用来解释捕食者和猎物的自然种群动态，例如哈德逊湾公司的猞猁和雪鞋兔的数据，以及皇家岛国家公园的驼鹿和狼的种群数据。

In the late 1980s, an alternative to the Lotka–Volterra predator–prey model (and its common-prey-dependent generalizations) emerged, the ratio dependent or Arditi–Ginzburg model. The validity of prey- or ratio-dependent models has been much debated.

Physical meaning of the equations

The Lotka–Volterra model makes a number of assumptions, not necessarily realizable in nature, about the environment and evolution of the predator and prey populations:

The Lotka–Volterra model makes a number of assumptions, not necessarily realizable in nature, about the environment and evolution of the predator and prey populations:

Lotka-Volterra 模型对捕食者和被捕食者种群的环境和进化做出了许多假设，但这些假设在自然界中不一定是可实现的:

1. The prey population finds ample food at all times.

The prey population finds ample food at all times.

猎物总能找到充足的食物。

1. The food supply of the predator population depends entirely on the size of the prey population.

The food supply of the predator population depends entirely on the size of the prey population.

捕食者种群的食物供应完全取决于猎物种群的大小。

1. The rate of change of population is proportional to its size.

The rate of change of population is proportional to its size.

人口的变化率与其规模成正比。

1. During the process, the environment does not change in favour of one species, and genetic adaptation is inconsequential.

During the process, the environment does not change in favour of one species, and genetic adaptation is inconsequential.

在这个过程中，环境并没有因为一个物种而改变，基因的适应也是无关紧要的。

1. Predators have limitless appetite.

Predators have limitless appetite.

食肉动物有无限的食欲。

As differential equations are used, the solution is deterministic and continuous. This, in turn, implies that the generations of both the predator and prey are continually overlapping.

由于微分方程的使用，解是确定的和连续的。反过来，这意味着捕食者和被捕食者的世代是不断重叠的。

数学 frac { dt } alpha x beta x y

The prey are assumed to have an unlimited food supply and to reproduce exponentially, unless subject to predation; this exponential growth is represented in the equation above by the term αx. The rate of predation upon the prey is assumed to be proportional to the rate at which the predators and the prey meet, this is represented above by βxy. If either x or y is zero, then there can be no predation.

The rate of predation upon the prey is assumed to be proportional to the rate at which the predators and the prey meet, this is represented above by βxy. If either or is zero, then there can be no predation.

被捕食者被假定有无限的食物供应并且以指数形式繁殖，除非被捕食; 这个指数增长在上面的方程中用术语 x 来表示。捕食食物的速率被假定为与捕食者和猎物相遇的速率成正比，这在上面用 xy 表示。如果其中一个或者等于零，那么就不存在捕食。

With these two terms the equation above can be interpreted as follows: the rate of change of the prey's population is given by its own growth rate minus the rate at which it is preyed upon.

With these two terms the equation above can be interpreted as follows: the rate of change of the prey's population is given by its own growth rate minus the rate at which it is preyed upon.

有了这两个项，上面的公式可以解释为: 猎物种群的变化率是由它自己的增长率减去它被捕食的速率。

Predators

捕食者方程变成了

[math]\displaystyle{ \frac{dy}{dt} = \delta xy - \gamma y. }[/math]

[math]\displaystyle{ \frac{dy}{dt} = \delta xy - \gamma y. }[/math]

Delta xy-gamma y / math

In this equation, δxy represents the growth of the predator population. (Note the similarity to the predation rate; however, a different constant is used, as the rate at which the predator population grows is not necessarily equal to the rate at which it consumes the prey). γy represents the loss rate of the predators due to either natural death or emigration, it leads to an exponential decay in the absence of prey.

在这个方程中，xy 表示捕食者种群的增长。(注意与捕食率的相似性; 然而，使用了一个不同的常数，因为捕食者种群增长的速度不一定等于它消耗猎物的速度)。Y 代表食肉动物因自然死亡或移居海外而损失的比率，在没有猎物的情况下，y 代表指数衰减。

Hence the equation expresses that the rate of change of the predator's population depends upon the rate at which it consumes prey, minus its intrinsic death rate.

Hence the equation expresses that the rate of change of the predator's population depends upon the rate at which it consumes prey, minus its intrinsic death rate.

因此这个方程表达了捕食者种群数量的变化率取决于捕食的速率减去其固有的死亡率。

Solutions to the equations

The equations have periodic solutions and do not have a simple expression in terms of the usual trigonometric functions, although they are quite tractable.

这些方程有周期解，并且没有用通常的三角函数表示的简单表达式，尽管它们很容易处理。

If none of the non-negative parameters α, β, γ, δ vanishes, three can be absorbed into the normalization of variables to leave only one parameter: since the first equation is homogeneous in x, and the second one in y, the parameters β/α and δ/γ are absorbable in the normalizations of y and x respectively, and γ into the normalization of t, so that only α/γ remains arbitrary. It is the only parameter affecting the nature of the solutions.

If none of the non-negative parameters vanishes, three can be absorbed into the normalization of variables to leave only one parameter: since the first equation is homogeneous in , and the second one in , the parameters β/α and δ/γ are absorbable in the normalizations of and respectively, and into the normalization of , so that only remains arbitrary. It is the only parameter affecting the nature of the solutions.

如果所有的非负参数都不消失，三个参数可以被吸收到变量的归一化中，只留下一个参数: 因为第一个方程是齐次方程，第二个方程是齐次方程，所以这些参数 / 和 / 可以分别被和的正规化和归一化所吸收，所以只能是任意的。这是影响解的性质的唯一参数。

A linearization of the equations yields a solution similar to simple harmonic motion with the population of predators trailing that of prey by 90° in the cycle.

An aside: These graphs illustrate a serious potential problem with this as a biological model: For this specific choice of parameters, in each cycle, the baboon population is reduced to extremely low numbers, yet recovers (while the cheetah population remains sizeable at the lowest baboon density). In real-life situations, however, chance fluctuations of the discrete numbers of individuals, as well as the family structure and life-cycle of baboons, might cause the baboons to actually go extinct, and, by consequence, the cheetahs as well. This modelling problem has been called the "atto-fox problem", an atto-fox being a notional 10⁻¹⁸ of a fox.

Dynamics of the system

In the model system, the predators thrive when there are plentiful prey but, ultimately, outstrip their food supply and decline. As the predator population is low, the prey population will increase again. These dynamics continue in a cycle of growth and decline.

因此，有两个均衡。

The first solution effectively represents the extinction of both species. If both populations are at 0, then they will continue to be so indefinitely. The second solution represents a fixed point at which both populations sustain their current, non-zero numbers, and, in the simplified model, do so indefinitely. The levels of population at which this equilibrium is achieved depend on the chosen values of the parameters α, β, γ, and δ.

In the model α and γ are always greater than zero, and as such the sign of the eigenvalues above will always differ. Hence the fixed point at the origin is a saddle point.

In the model α and γ are always greater than zero, and as such the sign of the eigenvalues above will always differ. Hence the fixed point at the origin is a saddle point.

在模型中和总是大于零，因此上面的特征值的符号总是不同的。因此原点的不动点是鞍点。

The stability of this fixed point is of significance. If it were stable, non-zero populations might be attracted towards it, and as such the dynamics of the system might lead towards the extinction of both species for many cases of initial population levels. However, as the fixed point at the origin is a saddle point, and hence unstable, it follows that the extinction of both species is difficult in the model. (In fact, this could only occur if the prey were artificially completely eradicated, causing the predators to die of starvation. If the predators were eradicated, the prey population would grow without bound in this simple model.) The populations of prey and predator can get infinitesimally close to zero and still recover.

这个不动点的稳定性具有重要意义。如果它是稳定的，可能会吸引非零种群，因此，在许多初始种群水平的情况下，系统的动态可能导致两个物种的灭绝。然而，由于原点的不动点是鞍点，因此是不稳定的，因此在模型中两个物种的灭绝都是困难的。(事实上，只有当猎物被人为地完全消灭，导致捕食者饿死时，才会发生这种情况。在这个简单的模型中，如果捕食者被消灭，猎物的数量就会无限增长捕食者和被捕食者的数量可以无限小地接近于零，并且仍然可以恢复。
