Cooperative dynamics are common in ecology and population dynamics. However, their commonly high degree of complexity with a large number of coupled degrees of freedom renders them difficult to analyse. Here, we present a graph-theoretical criterion, via a diakoptic approach (divide-and-conquer) to determine a cooperative system's stability by decomposing the system's dependence graph into its strongly connected components (SCCs). In particular, we show that a linear cooperative system is Lyapun ...[more]
