Abstract
We use feedback control methods to prove a trichotomy of stability for nonlinear (density dependent) discrete-time population dynamics defined on a natural state space of non-negative vectors. Specifically, using comparison results and small gain techniques we obtain a computable formula for parameter ranges when one of the following must hold: there is a positive, globally asymptotically stable equilibrium; zero is globally asymptotically stable or all solutions with non-zero initial conditions diverge. We apply our results to a model for Chinook Salmon.
