dc.description.abstractNumerical studies of the May–Leonard model for cyclically competing species exhibit spontaneous spatial structures in the form of spirals. It is desirable to obtain a simple coarse-grained evolution equation describing spatio-temporal pattern formation in such spatially extended stochastic population dynamics models. Extending earlier work on the corresponding deterministic system, we derive the complex Ginzburg–Landau equation as the effective representation of the fully stochastic dynamics of this paradigmatic model for cyclic dominance near its Hopf bifurcation, and for small fluctuations in the three-species coexistence regime. The internal stochastic reaction noise is accounted for through the Doi–Peliti coherent-state path integral formalism, and subsequent mapping to three coupled non-linear Langevin equations. This analysis provides constraints on the model parameters that allow time scale separation and in consequence a further reduction to just two coarse-grained slow degrees of freedom.en
