Abstract

A nonlinear integral equation arising from a parametric closure of the third spatial moment in the single-species model of logistic dynamics of U. Dieckmann and R. Law is analyzed. The case of piecewise constant kernels is studied, which is important for further computer modeling. Sufficient conditions are found that guarantee the existence of a nontrivial solution to the equilibrium equation. The use of constant kernels makes it possible to obtain more accurate results compared to earlier works, in particular, more accurate estimates for the L1 norm of the solution and for the closure parameter are obtained.
