%0 Journal Article %T Chaos Induced by Snap-Back Repeller in a Two Species Competitive Model %A Tahmineh Azizi %A Bacim Alali %J American Journal of Computational Mathematics %P 311-328 %@ 2161-1211 %D 2020 %I Scientific Research Publishing %R 10.4236/ajcm.2020.102017 %X In this paper, we investigate the complex dynamics of two-species Ricker-type discrete-time competitive model. We perform a local stability analysis for the fixed points and we will discuss about its persistence for boundary fixed points. This system inherits the dynamics of one-dimensional Ricker model such as cascade of period-doubling bifurcation, periodic windows and chaos. We explore the existence of chaos for the equilibrium points for a specific case of this system using Marotto theorem and proving the existence of snap-back repeller. We use several dynamical systems tools to demonstrate the qualitative behaviors of the system. %K Complex Dynamics %K Snap-Back Repeller %K Marotto Theorem %K Persistence Theory %K Bifurcation %U http://www.scirp.org/journal/PaperInformation.aspx?PaperID=101201
