Global stability of mutualistic interactions among three species system
Abstract
In this paper, a mathematical model consisting of mutualistic interactions among three species is proposed and analyzed. Local and global stabilities are discussed by using Routh-Hurwitz criteria and constructing Lyapunov function respectively. Finally, we illustrate our results by some numerical examples
