Bifurcation Phenomena in a Lotka-Volterra Model with Cross-Diffusion and Delay Effect

This paper focuses on a Lotka-Volterra model with delay and cross-diffusion. By using Lyapunov-Schmidt reduction, we investigate the existence, multiplicity, stability and Hopf bifurcation of spatially nonhomogeneous steady-state solutions. Furthermore, we obtain some criteria to determine the bifurcation direction and stability of Hopf bifurcating periodic orbits by using Lyapunov-Schmidt reduction.
