Dynamics of a ratio-dependent three-species food-chain system in a random environment

Abstract

We consider a system of stochastic differential equations, which is established by introducing white noises into a periodic and ratio-dependent food-chain system of three-species. We investigate the asymptotic behaviors for such a system, and obtain the sufficient conditions for its extinction and persistence with the help of Itô’s formula. We discuss the existence of a nontrivial positive periodic solution based on Has’minskii theory of periodic solution. Further, we study a ratio-dependent food-chain system of three-species including not only white noise but also telephone noise. For such a model, we give the sufficient conditions to guarantee the existence of a unique ergodic stationary distribution.
