<p style='text-indent:20px;'>The optimal harvesting of biological resources, which is directly relevant to sustainable development, has attracted more attention. In this paper, we first prove the existence and uniqueness of generalized solution of a size-stage-structured population model while the optimal harvesting effort is discontinuous. Next, we demonstrate the existence of the optimal harvesting policy. Further, based on the idea of the Pontryagin's maximum principle of the optimal control problem in ordinary differential equations, we derive the maximum principle describing the optimal control. Finally, the dynamical behavior of the population is simulated by solving the corresponding optimality system numerically with an algorithm based on the method of backward Euler implicit finite-difference approximation. The numerical simulations indicate harvesting activity will reduce the quantity of the population and that increasing harvesting cost will result in less adult harvested. This provides guideline of implementing harvesting tactic to guarantee the persistence of the population.</p>

In this paper, we have considered a discrete prey–predator model with square-root functional response and optimal harvesting policy. This type of functional response is used to study the dynamics of the prey–predator model where the prey population exhibits herd behavior, i.e., the interaction between prey and predator occurs along the boundary of the population. The considered population model has three fixed points; one is trivial, the second one is axial and the last one is an interior fixed point. The first two fixed points are always feasible but the last one depends on the parameter value. The interior fixed point experiences the flip and Neimark–Sacker bifurcations depending on the predator harvesting coefficient. Finally, an optimal harvesting policy has been introduced and the optimal value of the harvesting coefficient is determined.

This paper investigates the theoretical aspects for an optimal harvesting problem of a nonlinear size-structured population model in a periodic environment. We establish the well-posedness of the state system by means of frozen coefficients and fixed point reasoning. The existence of a unique optimal policy is proved via Ekeland's variational principle, and the first-order optimality conditions are derived by a suitable normal cone and a dual system. The results obtained would be beneficial for exploration of renewable resources.
