The effect of density-dependent dispersal on the stability of populations Original Research Article

The nonlinear stability of two populations diffusing in a common bounded domain with nonlinear density-dependent dispersal of a general type is studied, under Robin boundary conditions. The stability and instability of the positive equilibrium are studied by the linear eigenvalues method. The nonlinear stability is studied with the Lyapunov direct method. In a particular case, global stability has been obtained.
