A detailed mosquito population model shows that sterile male releases can trigger saddle-node bifurcations to eliminate positive equilibria, with a hybrid constant-plus-responsive strategy cutting sterile male needs by 5% versus constant-only and 39% versus responsive-only.

Tipping the Balance: Allee Thresholds, Saddle-Node Bifurcations, and Optimal Sterile-Male Release Strategies for Anopheles Mosquitoes
A detailed mosquito population model shows that sterile male releases can trigger saddle-node bifurcations to eliminate positive equilibria, with a hybrid constant-plus-responsive strategy cutting sterile male needs by 5% versus constant-only and 39% versus responsive-only.
