Dynamical Equilibrium of Interacting Ant Societies
Boon Tiong Melvin Leok
Abstract
The sustainable biodiversity associated with a specific ecological niche as a function of land area is analysed computationally by considering the interaction of ant societies over a collection of islands. A power law relationship between sustainable species and land area is observed. We will further consider the effect a perturbative inflow of ants has upon the model.
