Positive Periodic Solutions for Neutral Delay Ratio-Dependent Predator-Prey Model with Holling-Tanner Functional Response by Guirong Liu, Sanhu Wang, Jurang Yan

“…By using a continuation theorem based on coincidence degree theory, we establish some easily verifiable criteria for the existence of positive periodic solutions for neutral delay ratio-dependent predator-prey model with Holling-Tanner functional response x'(t)=x(t)[r(t)-a(t)x(t-σ(t))-b(t)x'(t-σ(t))]-c(t)x(t)y(t)/h(t)y(t)+x(t), y'(t)=y(t)d(t)-f(t)y(t-τ(t))/x(t-τ(t)).…”

Konstruktywizm edukacyjny – niejednoznaczność, kontrowersje, dylematy by Dorota Klus-Stańska

“… This article is a voice in the discussion on the reasons why the polemics on the essence and status of constructivism and on its significance for educational practices continues. The multiplicity of theoretical references, the ambiguity of evidence on educational outcomes, and the divergence of assessments of the effects of using constructivism in organizing learning processes have their various causes. …”

Existence and Global Attractivity of Positive Periodic Solutions for a Two-Species Competitive System with Stage Structure and Impulse by Changjin Xu, Daxue Chen

“…A class of nonautonomous two-species competitive system with stage structure and impulse is considered. By using the continuation theorem of coincidence degree theory, we derive a set of easily verifiable sufficient conditions that guarantee the existence of at least a positive periodic solution, and, by constructing a suitable Lyapunov functional, the uniqueness and global attractivity of the positive periodic solution are presented. …”
