In this paper, we consider a predator–prey system with Holling type III ratio-dependent functional response. Such a system can exhibit complex dynamical behavior such as bistable and tristable phenomena which contain equilibria and oscillating motions for certain parameter values. In particular, we show that the ratio-dependent predator–prey system can exhibit multiple limit cycles due to Hopf bifurcation, giving rise to coexistence of stable equilibria and stable periodic solutions. These solutions may reveal some new type of patterns of complex dynamical behaviors in predator–prey systems.

In this paper, we consider a number of predator–prey systems with various types of functional responses. Detailed analysis on the dynamics and bifurcations of the systems are given. Particular attention is focused on the complex dynamics due to bifurcation of limit cycles, which may generate bistable or tristable phenomena involving equilibria and oscillating motions. It is shown that predator–prey systems can exhibit such bistable or tristable phenomena due to Hopf bifurcation, giving rise to the coexistence of stable equilibria and stable periodic solutions. Explicit conditions on the system parameters are derived which can be used to determine the number of Hopf bifurcations, the stability of bifurcating limit cycles, and the parameter regime where the bistable or tristable phenomenon occurs. The method developed in this paper can be applied to study certain interesting patterns of complex dynamical behaviors in biological or other physical systems.

The bifurcation analysis of a predator–prey system of Holling and Leslie type with constant-yield prey harvesting is carried out in this paper. It is shown that the model has a Bogdanov–Takens singularity (cusp case) of codimension at least 4 for some parameter values. Various kinds of bifurcations, such as saddle-node bifurcation, Hopf bifurcation, repelling and attracting Bogdanov–Takens bifurcations of codimensions 2 and 3, are also shown in the model as parameters vary. Hence, there are different parameter values for which the model has a limit cycle, a homoclinic loop, two limit cycles, or a limit cycle coexisting with a homoclinic loop. These results present far richer dynamics compared to the model with no harvesting. Numerical simulations, including the repelling and attracting Bogdanov–Takens bifurcation diagrams and corresponding phase portraits, and the existence of two limit cycles or an unstable limit cycle enclosing a stable multiple focus with multiplicity one, are also given to support the theoretical analysis.

In this paper, we investigate the dynamical properties of a stochastic ratio-dependent predatorprey system with Holling type IV functional response. The existence of the globally positive solutions to the system with positive initial value is shown employing comparison theorem of stochastic equation and It??s formula. We derived some sufficient conditions for the persistence in mean and extinction. This system has a stable stationary distribution which is ergodic. Numerical simulations are carried out for further support of present research.

This paper is concerned with a stochastic ratio-dependent predator-prey model with varible coefficients. By the comparison theorem of stochastic equations and the Itô formula, the global existence of a unique positive solution of the ratio-dependent model is obtained. Besides, some results are established such as the stochastically ultimate boundedness and stochastic permanence for this model.

Abstract This paper mainly aims to consider the dynamical behaviors of a diffusive delayed predator–prey system with Smith growth and herd behavior subject to the homogeneous Neumann boundary condition. For the analysis of the predator–prey model, we have studied the existence of Hopf bifurcation by analyzing the distribution of the roots of associated characteristic equation. Then we have proved the stability of the periodic solution by calculating the normal form on the center of manifold which is associated to the Hopf bifurcation points. Some numerical simulations are also carried out in order to validate our analysis findings. The implications of our analytical and numerical findings are discussed critically.

A diffusive predator-prey system with prey refuge is studied analytically and numerically. The Turing bifurcation is analyzed in detail, which in turn provides a theoretical basis for the numerical simulation. The influence of prey refuge and group defense on the equilibrium density and patterns of species under the condition of Turing instability is explored by numerical simulations, and this shows that the prey refuge and group defense have an important effect on the equilibrium density and patterns of species. Moreover, it can be obtained that the distributions of species are more sensitive to group defense than prey refuge. These results are expected to be of significance in exploration for the spatiotemporal dynamics of ecosystems.

We considered a nonautonomous two dimensional predator-prey system with impulsive effect. Conditions for the permanence of the system and for the existence of a unique stable periodic solution are obtained.
