Definition

\[ \begin{aligned} \dot{z} &= V_{0} + V_{1} \beta - \frac{Vm_{2} z^{2}}{K_{2}^{2} + z^{2}} + \frac{Vm_{3} a^{4} y^{2} z^{m}}{\left(Ka^{4} + a^{4}\right) \left(Ky^{2} + y^{2}\right) \left(Kz^{m} + z^{m}\right)} - k z + kf y \\ \dot{y} &= \frac{Vm_{2} z^{2}}{K_{2}^{2} + z^{2}} - \frac{Vm_{3} a^{4} y^{2} z^{m}}{\left(Ka^{4} + a^{4}\right) \left(Ky^{2} + y^{2}\right) \left(Kz^{m} + z^{m}\right)} - kf y \\ \dot{a} &= V_{4} \beta - \frac{Vm_{5} a^{p} z^{n}}{\left(K_{5}^{p} + a^{p}\right) \left(Kd^{n} + z^{n}\right)} - a eps \end{aligned} \]

Properties

Lyapunov spectrum
TODO — lyapunov_spectrum failed: AttributeError
Kaplan–Yorke dimension
TODO — requires a numeric Lyapunov spectrum
Divergence ∇·f
$\nabla\!\cdot f = - eps - k - kf$
constant part shown — state-dependent remainder omitted (too large)
Equilibria
3 equilibria
0 stable · 3 unstable
