The Effect of Dispersal Patterns on Hopf Bifurcations in a Delayed Single Population Model.

In this paper, we consider a delayed single population model with patch structure, and investigate Hopf bifurcations when the dispersal rate or the scaling parameter of the growth rate is small. The effect of dispersal patterns is analyzed. We show that dispersal patterns affect the occurrence of Hopf bifurcations when the scaling parameter of the growth rate is small, and affect the values of Hopf bifurcations when the dispersal rate is small.
