Attracting heteroclinic-connection conjecture for metapopulation persistence
Consider a two-patch metapopulation with a homoclinic connection in its phase space, and suppose that this connection attracts nearby initial conditions. Assume that one of the two…

The local persistence criterion for infinite source-transitive metapopulations
Local persistence criterion. If there is global persistence, then local persistence occurs only if
