The reaction-diffusion equations have been widely used in physics, chemistry, and other areas. Forest fire can also be described by such equations. We here propose a fighting forest fire model. By using the normal form approach theory and center manifold theory, we analyze the stability of the trivial solution and Hopf bifurcation of this model. Finally, we give the numerical simulations to illustrate the effectiveness of our results. 1. Introduction The forest fire is an important issue in the world. It has brought us huge losses. It not only burns our forests but also destroys the local ecological environment. Many factors lead to forest fires. Several authors have studied them in depth 1–6. Some important organizations, especially the USDA Forest Service, have also researched them in their themes 7. Reaction-diffusion equations have been applied in forest fire model for several years. Some authors analyzed the dynamical behavior of the fire front propagations using hyperbolic reaction-diffusion equations 8. Lots of articles related to percolation theory 9 and self-organized criticality 10 are trying to provide a different dynamical model for the spread of the fire. In this paper, the model describes the condition that people are putting out the fire when the fire is spreading. We analyze dynamic properties of the reaction-diffusion equations. Kolmogorov et al. proposed the famous KPP model 11 in the 1930s. From then on, it had been applied in various fields including forest fire: ut d1 uxx u fu, x ∈ R, t ≥ 0, 1.1 where u ux, t can be seen as the area of the burned forest. uxx is a diffusion term of u in space, and d1 is the diffusion coefficient. fu is a nonlinear function. The equation can 2 Abstract and Applied Analysis describe the speed of fire spreading. Zeldovich et al. gave the famous theory of combustion and explosions 12. We can get inspiration from it: The people will go to put out the fire as soon as they realize the forest fire. We can use a reaction-diffusion equation to describe it. vt d2 vxx − cv gv. 1.2 In this equation, v vx, t is the area where the fire has been put out. vxx is a diffusion term of v in space, and d2 is the diffusion coefficient. c is the resurgence probability of v. gv is a nonlinear function which represents the ability of people to put out the fire. Now, let us consider the two reaction-diffusion equations together. As we know, u and v influence each other. Thus, f and g must be functions of u, v. We define gu, v by referring to the combustion model 13: gu, v uv , bu 1 b > 0. 1.3 Since gu, v has opposite effect on the fire area or u, we can also define fu, v by taking into account KPP model 8: fu, v −au2 − uv . bu 1 1.4 Then we get a new model: ut − d1 uxx u − au2 − vt − d2 vxx −cv uv , bu 1 uv , bu 1 ux 0, t vx 0, t 0, ux lπ, t vx lπ, t 0, ux, 0 ≥ 0, x ∈ 0, lπ. vx, 0 ≥ 0, 1.5 Define H L2 0, π × L2 0, π f : f, g ∈ L2 0, π , g 1.6 and an inner product is given by 2 π 2 π f1 f , 2 f1 , f2 L2 g1 , g2 L2 f1 f2 dx g1 g2 dx, g1 g2 π 0 π 0 1.7 Abstract and Applied Analysis 3 where f1 , g1 T ∈ H, f2 , g2 T ∈ H. From the standpoint of biology, we are only interested in the dynamics of model 1.5 in the region: 1.8 R2 {u, v | u > 0, v > 0}. 2. Stability Analysis Firstly, we consider the location stability 14, 15 and the number of the equilibria of model 1.5 in R2 . We can also study autowave solutions 16 of the model. The interior equilibrium point is a root of the following equation: u − au2 − −cv uv 0, bu 1 2.1 uv 0. bu 1 It is obvious that 2.1 has an only real solution Y0 u0 , v0 , where u0 bc , 1 − bc v0 ab 1 − u0 1 u0 , a 2.2 and b < 1/ca 1. Now, we analyze the asymptotic stability of u0 , v0 by Lyapunov function. Lemma 2.1. For the model 1.5, 1 if a ≥ 1, u0 , v0 is global asymptotic stability. 2 if a < 1 and 1 − a/c ≤ b ≤ 1/ac c, u0 , v0 also has global asymptotic stability. Proof. Defining ωu, v lπ u 0 u0 1 r/br 1 − c dr dx r/r 1 b lπ v 0 v0 s − v0 ds dx, s 2.3 we can get ∂ω 1 ∂t b lπ hu − hu0 pu − pu0 dx Y t, 2.4 0 where u , pu 1 − auu 1, u1 lπ h u 2 d2 v0 lπ vx2 Y t −d1 c ux dx dx. 2 2 b 0 h u 0 v hu 2.5 4 Abstract and Applied Analysis In what follows, we split it into two cases to prove. If a ≥ 1, for all u > 0, p u < 0, since h u 1/u 12 > 0, we can get hu − hu0 pu − pu0 ≤ 0. 2.6 If a < 1 and 1 − a/c ≤ b ≤ 1/ac c equal to v0 ≤ b, we can still get 2.6. That is to say 2.7 wt u, v < 0. We prove the conclusion. Because of the conclusion of Lemma 2.1, we always assume a < 1 and 0 < b < 1 − a/2ac − c. Introducing perturbations u∗ u − u0 , v∗ v − v0 , and replace u∗ , v∗ with u, v, for which model 1.5 yields ut − d1 uxx u u0 − au u0 2 − vt − d2 vxx −cv v0 u u0 v v0 , bu u0 1 u u0 v v0 , bu u0 1 ux 0, t vx 0, t 0, ux lπ, t vx lπ, t 0, ux, 0 ≥ 0, x ∈ 0, lπ. vx, 0 ≥ 0, 2.8 Now we can get the linearized system of parametric model 2.8 at 0, 0, ut Lb u , Δ vt v 2.9 where ⎛ ⎜ ⎜ Δ ⎝ 0 ∂2 d2 2 ∂x ⎞ ∂2 d1 2 ⎟ ∂x ⎟, ⎠ 0 ⎞ u0 1 − a − au0 −c ⎟ ⎜ 1 u0 ⎟ ⎜ ⎟.

We obtain Rewrite it as where From 2.18, when 1 − a/ac c < b < 1 − a/c is held, we can get Tn b < 0, Dn b > 0. So the system’s eigenvalues have negative real part, and u0 , v0 has local asymptotic stability. Then, we can conclude that the system has Hopf bifurcation 14 in b ∈ 0, 1 − a/ac c.

Hopf Bifurcation In the above section, we have already obtained the conditions which ensure that model 2.8 undergoes the Hopf bifurcation at the critical values b0 or bj,± j 1, · · · . In the following part, we will study the direction and stability of the Hopf bifurcation based on the normal form approach theory and center manifold theory introduced by Hassard at al. 14. Firstly, by the transformation u∗ u − u0 , v∗ v − v0 , and replacing u∗ , v∗ with u, v, the parametric system 1.5 is equivalent to the following functional differential equation FDE system: ∂U Δ Lb0 Fb0 , U, ∂t 3.1 where T U u, v , Fb0 , U f − fu u − fv v g − gu u − g v v . 3.2 8 Abstract and Applied Analysis The adjoint operator of Ln b is defined as ⎛ ⎞ ∂2 fv b0 ⎜d1 2 fu b0 ⎟ ∂x ⎟.

When μ2 > 0, the Hopf bifurcation is supercritical; when μ2 < 0, the Hopf bifurcation is subcritical. 2 β2 determines the stability of bifurcated periodic solutions. When β2 < 0, the periodic solutions are stable; when β2 > 0, the periodic solutions are unstable. 3 T2 determines the period of bifurcated periodic solutions. When T2 > 0, the period increases; when T2 < 0, the period decreases. 4. Example In this section, we use a numerical simulation to illustrate the analytical results we obtained in previous sections. Let x ∈ 0, lπ, d1 1, d2 3, c 4, a 0.0588. The system 1.5 is ut − uxx u − 0.0588u2 − vt − 3vxx −4v uv , bu 1 uv , bu 1 ux 0, t vx 0, t 0, ux lπ, t vx lπ, t 0, ux, 0 ≥ 0, x ∈ 0, lπ. vx, 0 ≥ 0, 4.1 Now we determine the direction of a Hopf bifurcation with b ∈ B and the other properties of bifurcating periodic solutions based on the theory of Hassard et al. 14, as discussed before. By means of software MATLAB 7.0, we can get some figures to illustrate the effectiveness of 12 Abstract and Applied Analysis 15 5 u(2) u(1) 10 10 0 20 15 20 x 10 0 0 10 t 10 x a 5 0 0 5 10 15 t b Figure 2: When b 0.1253, periodic solutions occur from Y0 . 20 u(2) u(1) 40 20 0 10 x 0 0 10 t 10 x a 0 0 10 t b Figure 3: When b 1.3, the positive equilibrium point Y0 is unstable. our results. b0B 0.2222, b∗ 0.1667, Ab∗ 0.4706, ln 2.9155n, and 2.27 is held. When n 2, l 3.1162, ln , ln1 2.9155, 5.8302, l ∈ ln , ln1 . We can get B 0.1253, 0.1944, 0.2222. The only positive equilibrium point of 4.1 is Y0 4b/1−4b, b0.0588−u0 1u0 /0.0588. When b 0.1253, we can compute Re c1 0.1253 0.2856 > 0, μ2 −0.3423 < 0, T2 1.2346 > 0. 4.2 The positive equilibrium point of 4.1 is unstable and the Hopf bifurcation is supercritical. The positive equilibrium point Y0 of system 4.1 is locally asymptotically stable when b 0.1 as is illustrated by computer simulations in Figure 1. And periodic solutions occur from Y0 when b 0.1253 as is illustrated by computer simulations in Figure 2. When b 1.3, we can easily show that the positive equilibrium point Y0 is unstable as is illustrated in Figure 3. From the above results, we can conclude that the stability properties of the system could switch with parameter b.
