This paper describes a prey-predator model with Holling type II functional response incorporating constant prey refuge and harvesting to both prey and predator species. We have analyzed the boundedness of the system and existence of all possible feasible equilibria and discussed local as well as global stabilities at interior equilibrium of the system. The occurrence of Hopf bifurcation of the system is examined, and it was observed that the bifurcation is either supercritical or subcritical. Influences of prey refuge and harvesting efforts are also discussed. Some numerical simulations are carried out for the validity of theoretical results.

This paper is devoted to the study of a new delayed eco-epidemiological model with infection-age structure and Holling type II functional response. Firstly, the disease transmission rate function among the predator population is treated as the piecewise function concerning the incubation period [Formula: see text] of the epidemic disease and the model is rewritten as an abstract nondensely defined Cauchy problem. Besides, the prerequisite which guarantees the presence of the coexistence equilibrium is achieved. Secondly, via utilizing the theory of integrated semigroup and the Hopf bifurcation theorem for semilinear equations with nondense domain, it is found that the model exhibits a Hopf bifurcation near the coexistence equilibrium, which suggests that this model has a nontrivial periodic solution that bifurcates from the coexistence equilibrium as the bifurcation parameter [Formula: see text] crosses the bifurcation critical value [Formula: see text]. That is, there is a continuous periodic oscillation phenomenon. Finally, some numerical simulations are shown to support and extend the analytical results and visualize the interesting phenomenon.

A nonautonomous discrete predator-prey system incorporating a prey refuge and Holling type II functional response is studied in this paper. A set of sufficient conditions which guarantee the persistence and global stability of the system are obtained, respectively. Our results show that if refuge is large enough then predator species will be driven to extinction due to the lack of enough food. Two examples together with their numerical simulations show the feasibility of the main results.

This paper deals with the investigation of the three species food-web model. This model includes two logistically growing interaction species, namely [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], and the third species [Formula: see text] behaves as the predator and also host for [Formula: see text]. The species [Formula: see text] predating on the species [Formula: see text] with the Holling type-II functional response, while the first species [Formula: see text] is benefited from the third species [Formula: see text]. Further, the effect of fear is incorporated in the growth rate of species [Formula: see text] due to the predator [Formula: see text] and time lag in [Formula: see text] due to the gestation process. We explore all the biologically possible equilibrium points, and their local stability is analyzed based on the sample parameters. Next, we investigate the occurrence of Hopf-bifurcation around the interior equilibrium point by taking the value of the fear parameter as a bifurcation parameter for the non-delayed system. Moreover, we verify the local stability and existence of Hopf-bifurcation for the corresponding delayed system. Also, the direction and stability of the bifurcating periodic solutions are determined using the normal form theory and the center manifold theorem. Finally, we perform extensive numerical simulations to support the evidence of our analytical findings.

Prey-predator models with refuge effect have great importance in the context of ecology. Constant refuge and refuge proportional to prey are the most popular concepts of refuge in the existing literature. Now, there are new different types of refuge concepts attracting researchers. This study considers a refuge concept proportional to the predator due to the fear induced by predators. When predators increase, fears also increase and that is why prey refuges also increase. Here, we examine the influence of prey refuge proportional to predator effect in a discrete prey-predator interaction with the Holling type II functional response model. Is this refuge stabilizing or destabilizing the system? That is the central question of this study. The existence and stability of fixed points, Period-Doubling Bifurcation, Neimark–Sacker Bifurcation, the influence of prey refuge, and chaos are analyzed. This work provides the bifurcation diagrams and Lyapunov exponents to analyze the refuge parameter of the model. The proposed discrete model indicates rich dynamics as the effect of prey refuge through numerical simulations.
