Diffusion chaos in the Lotke-Volterra stochastic model

  • Published:
Theoretical and Experimental Chemistry Aims and scope

Abstract

It is shown that a chaotic state exists in the Lotke-Volterra model because of diffusion control in a bimolecular reaction chain; this stochastic model is used to show that irregularities occur only when there are two intermediate reaction products and are related to deviation from the mass-action law.
