SEASONALITY OF RICKER MUTUALISM MODEL EMPLOYING RATE INDICATOR WITH ALMOST PERIODIC FUNCTION

Abstract

In this paper, we implement a rate indicator function featuring an almost periodic component to capture seasonal trends within the Ricker model, which represents a mutualistic framework. For the updated model incorporating this function, we derived parameters that guarantee the uniqueness of the solution and confirmed that the initial conditions do not affect the solution. We anticipate that this study will provide valuable insights into the critical role of the rate indicator function and the influence of almost periodicity in analyzing seasonal trends.
