Abstract

Based on Hastings and Powell’s research, this paper extends a three-species food-chain system to fractional-order form, whose dynamics are analyzed and explored. The necessary conditions for generating chaos are confirmed by the stability theory of fractional-order systems, chaos is characterized by its phase diagrams, and bifurcation diagrams prove that the dynamic behaviors of the fractional-order food-chain system are affected by the order. Next, the chaotic control of the fractional-order system is realized by the feedback control method with a good effect in a relative short period. The stability margin of the controlled system is revealed by the theory and numerical analysis. Finally, the results of theory analysis are verified by numerical simulations.
