F (v, w) = Av(v α)(1 v) w, G(v, w) = ɛ(v γw). with 0 < α < 1 2, and ɛ small. (Remark: This model is used these days only by mathematicians.) Dynamical Systems for Biology p.17/25

33 McKean McKean suggested two piecewise linear models with F (v, w) = f(v) w and G(v, w) = ɛ(v γw). For the first, f(v) = 8 >< >: v v < α 2 α v α 2 < v < 1+α 2 1 v v > 1+α 2 f(v) v where 0 < α < 1 2. The second model suggested by McKean had f(v) = 8 < : v v < α 1 v v > α f(v) (-8) v and γ = 0.
