Abstract

We study the dynamics of a discrete model with two different stages of the population, the pre-adult stage governed by a Beverton–Holt-type map and the adult stage by a \(\gamma\)-Ricker map. The composition of both maps gives the dynamics. The existence of the Allee effect is easily observed. We check that the model can evolve from a sure extinction to complicated dynamics. The presence of an almost sure extinction is proved to exist when the dynamical complexity is the highest possible.

Notes

  1. In fact, the equation provides two solutions, but one of them makes no sense for this model.
