Our first fixed point becomes (𝜎⁄𝛿, 0). We find the y- values of the remaining fixed points by
obtaining the roots of the third-order polynomial 0.000006𝑦 3 − 0.0052𝑦 2 + 1.0871𝑦 + 0.3736 =
0. Using MATLAB, we have obtained three roots. These roots are 𝑦1 = −0.3431, 𝑦2 =
353.2199, 𝑦3 = 513.7899. Since we are only considering positive values for our y, we discard y1. We
substitute the remaining y-values to our nullcline equations to obtain the x-value of our fixed
points.
Hence, we have the fixed points (𝜎⁄𝛿, 0), (0.4803,353.2199), (-0.045,513.7899). We analyze the
stability of these fixed points:
