plotting - 4-dimensional Lotka-Volterra plot


I was referring to the question I posted earlier in Mathematics forum, but then I came to see this example on Wikipedia. How did they plot the system in phase space?


enter image description here


The closet relevant topic I have done is the Lorenz Equation, where I used NDSolve and then ParametricPlot3D evaluated at the fix points.



Answer



Here's how to numerically solve the model.


nsp = 4;


{r[1], r[2], r[3], r[4]} = {1, 0.72, 1.53, 1.27};
{k[1], k[2], k[3], k[4]} = {1, 1, 1, 1};
amat = {{1, 1.09, 1.52, 0}, {0, 1, 0.44, 1.36}, {2.33, 0, 1, 0.47}, {1.21, 0.51, 0.35, 1}};
Do[a[i, j] = amat[[i, j]], {i, nsp}, {j, nsp}];

eqns = Table[x[i]'[t] ==
r[i]*x[i][t]*(1 - Sum[a[i, j]*x[j][t]/k[i], {j, nsp}]), {i, nsp}];
ics = Table[x[i][0] == 0.1, {i, nsp}];
unks = Table[x[i], {i, nsp}];


tmax = 10000;
sol = NDSolve[{eqns, ics}, unks, {t, 0, tmax}][[1]];

ParametricPlot3D[Evaluate[{x[1][t], x[2][t], x[3][t]} /. sol], {t, 100, tmax},
AxesLabel -> {"x1", "x2", "x3"}, PlotPoints -> 200]

Mathematica graphics


I don't know how to color the ParametricPlot3D according to x[4][t] -- that could be an interesting question if it hasn't already been answered on the site.


Update


Here's how to color according to x[4][t], using the slot #4 which represents t here:



ParametricPlot3D[Evaluate[{x[1][t], x[2][t], x[3][t]} /. sol], {t, 100, tmax}, 
AxesLabel -> {"x1", "x2", "x3"}, PlotPoints -> 400,
ColorFunction -> (ColorData["SunsetColors", x[4][#4] /. sol] &),
ColorFunctionScaling -> False]

functions - Get leading series expansion term?

Given a function f[x] , I would like to have a function leadingSeries that returns just the leading term in the series around x=0 . For example: leadingSeries[(1/x + 2)/(4 + 1/x^2 + x)] x and leadingSeries[(1/x + 2 + (1 - 1/x^3)/4)/(4 + x)] -(1/(16 x^3)) Is there such a function in Mathematica? Or maybe one can implement it efficiently? EDIT I finally went with the following implementation, based on Carl Woll 's answer: lds[ex_,x_]:=( (ex/.x->(x+O[x]^2))/.SeriesData[U_,Z_,L_List,Mi_,Ma_,De_]:>SeriesData[U,Z,{L[[1]]},Mi,Mi+1,De]//Quiet//Normal) The advantage is, that this one also properly works with functions whose leading term is a constant: lds[Exp[x],x] 1 Answer Update 1 Updated to eliminate SeriesData and to not return additional terms Perhaps you could use: leadingSeries[expr_, x_] := Normal[expr /. x->(x+O[x]^2) /. a_List :> Take[a, 1]] Then for your examples: leadingSeries[(1/x + 2)/(4 + 1/x^2 + x), x] leadingSeries[Exp[x], x] leadingSeries[(1/x + 2 + (1 - 1/x...

front end - keyboard shortcut to invoke Insert new matrix

I frequently need to type in some matrices, and the menu command Insert > Table/Matrix > New... allows matrices with lines drawn between columns and rows, which is very helpful. I would like to make a keyboard shortcut for it, but cannot find the relevant frontend token command (4209405) for it. Since the FullForm[] and InputForm[] of matrices with lines drawn between rows and columns is the same as those without lines, it's hard to do this via 3rd party system-wide text expanders (e.g. autohotkey or atext on mac). How does one assign a keyboard shortcut for the menu item Insert > Table/Matrix > New... , preferably using only mathematica? Thanks! Answer In the MenuSetup.tr (for linux located in the $InstallationDirectory/SystemFiles/FrontEnd/TextResources/X/ directory), I changed the line MenuItem["&New...", "CreateGridBoxDialog"] to read MenuItem["&New...", "CreateGridBoxDialog", MenuKey["m", Modifiers-...
