Review text

A collection of flows arising from simple ecological models via the Conley index and connection matrix is analyzed. The point of view taken is that of one who uses the theory: results about the Conley index are not stated in their greatest generality, but rather in the form in which they are used in applications. The main example considered is a predator-prey model. To obtain a classification of the behavior much more quickly and easily than via phase portrait analysis, the connection matrix theory is used. The author insists that the connection matrix allows us to determine the behavior of the systems with straightforward algebraic computations and minimal phase plane analysis.
