Abstract:
Applying a frequency domain approach, we investigate a
phytoplankton model with time delay. We use the delay as a
bifurcation parameter; as it passes through a sequence of
critical values, Hopf bifurcation occurs.
A family of periodic solutions bifurcate from
the equilibrium when the bifurcation parameter exceeds
a critical value. Some numerical simulations illustrate
our theoretical results.
