This is in contrast to what one should expect of systems describing biological metapopulations.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2014-08-10T12:08:46.000Z", "comment": "Submitted to the Proceedings of the 10th AIMS Conference on Dynamical Systems, Differential Equations and Applications, 2014", "journal": null, "doi": null }, { "version": "v2", "updated": "2015-04-09T05:58:21.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "37H15", "15B48", "92D25" ], "keywords": [ "random systems", "nonnegative matrices", "lyapunov exponent", "random matrix system", "diagonal matrix" ], "tags": [ "conference paper" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 8, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2014arXiv1408.2215M" } } }
