摘要
A prey-predator system with intelligent pursuit and evasion is studied by means of computer simulations. It is found that the model exhibits a coexistence state between prey and predators. In this state and depending on the parameters, the system may evolve toward two different regimes, characterized by the behavior of the prey-predator population. Whitin the oscillatory (fixed point) regime the specie's density changes periodically (remains constant), respectively. The transition between such regimes is rationalized in terms of a dynamic percolation process. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
