BE + -ING est-il un marqueur d’aspect ? by Paul Larreya

“…This paper aims to show that, in all of its uses (including those in which the meaning seems to bear little relation to ‘progressiveness’), BE + -ING expresses a way of viewing the event which may be termed a focusing vision (as opposed to the globalizing vision which characterizes the simple tenses of the English verb), and consists in (so to speak) zooming in on one short moment of the event, usually in order to identify the event itself or one of its characteristics. …”

Stability, delay, and chaotic behavior in a Lotka-Volterra predator-prey system by S. Nakaoka, Y. Saito, Y. Takeuchi

“…We consider the following Lotka-Volterra predator-prey system with two delays:$x'(t) = x(t) [r_1 - ax(t- \tau_1) - by(t)]$$y'(t) = y(t) [-r_2 + cx(t) - dy(t- \tau_2)]$ (E)We show that a positive equilibrium of system (E) is globally asymptotically stable for small delays. Critical values of time delay through which system (E) undergoes a Hopf bifurcation are analytically determined. …”
