Author(s):

In this paper, we propose a three-species model consisting of two competing (prey and nonprey) species and a predator species. Here, nonprey species are not included in the predator’s food choice. The competition process follows Holling type II competitive response to interference time. Basic results include the stability of the system. First, it is established that an increasing number of interference time stabilizes the system. Second, it is shown that the interference time has an impact on the predator equilibrium density. Third, we develop the criterion of persistence of all the species. It is also shown that the system may not be persistent when multiple steady states appear. We examine the global stability of the coexistence equilibrium point. Numerical experiments are carried out to understand the analytical outcomes.

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.

A model of prey and predator species is discussed to study the effects of the limited prey density and presence of toxicity. The model is studied for sustainable optimal harvesting. The existence of equilibrium points is analyzed to find the stability of coexistence equilibrium, and use Pontryagin’s maximal method to obtain the sustainable optimal harvesting. The results show that the optimal harvesting is obtained from the solution of optimal equilibrium. The toxicity factor decreases the sustainable harvesting.

A predator–prey model with time delay and Holling type-II functional response is investigated. By choosing time delay as the bifurcation parameter and analyzing the associated characteristic equation of the linearized system, the local stability of the system is investigated and Hopf bifurcations are established. The formulae determining the direction of bifurcations and the stability of bifurcating periodic solutions are given by using the normal form theory and center manifold theorem. Numerical simulations are carried out to illustrate the theoretical results.

This paper presents three species harvesting model in which there is one predator species and two others are prey species. We derive boundedness and equilibrium point for this system. Also we derive the stability of this system analytically. We find bifurcation for this system. We have derived the binomic equilibrium point by using Pontryagin’s maximum principle (PMP). Presented are various suitable analytical and numerical examples with Maple 18 programming.

In this paper, a predator-prey system with Holling type II functional response and stage structure is investigated. By analyzing the corresponding characteristic equations, the local stability of each of feasible equilibria of the system is studied. The existence of the orbitally asymptotically stable periodic solution is established. By using suitable Lyapunov functions and the LaSalle invariance principle, it is proven that the predator-extinction equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable when the coexistence equilibrium is not feasible, and sufficient conditions are derived for the global stability of the coexistence equilibrium.

Formation of spatial patterns in prey-predator system is a central issue in ecology. In this paper Turing structure through diffusion driven instability in a modified Leslie-Gower and Holling-type II predator-prey model has been investigated. The parametric space for which Turing spatial structure takes place has been found out. Extensive numerical experiments have been performed to show the role of diffusion coefficients and other important parameters of the system in Turing instability that produces some elegant patterns that have not been observed in the earlier findings. Finally it is concluded that the diffusion can lead the prey population to become isolated in the two-dimensional spatial domain.

AbstractWe propose a mathematical model for prey–predator interactions allowing prey refuge. A prey–predator model is considered in the present investigation with the inclusion of Holling type-II response function incorporating a prey refuge depending on both prey and predator species. We have analyzed the system for different interesting dynamical behaviors, such as, persistent, permanent, uniform boundedness, existence, feasibility of equilibria and their stability. The ranges of the significant parameters under which the system admits a Hopf bifurcation are investigated. The system exhibits Hopf-bifurcation around the unique interior equilibrium point of the system. The explicit formula for determining the stability, direction and periodicity of bifurcating periodic solutions are also derived with the use of both the normal form and the center manifold theory. The theoretical findings of this study are substantially validated by enough numerical simulations. The ecological implications of the obtained results are discussed as well.

In this paper, we consider a delayed diffusive Leslie–Gower predator–prey system with homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions. The stability/instability of the coexistence equilibrium and associated Hopf bifurcation are investigated by analyzing the characteristic equations. Furthermore, using the upper and lower solutions method, we give a sufficient condition on parameters so that the coexistence equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable.

This paper presents the nonlinear dynamics of a one-prey and one-predator harvesting model with precise in nature as well as imprecise in biological phenomena parameters. We derived the conditions for boundedness, the equilibrium point, and stability analysis. Both precise and imprecise models showed stable, unstable, and saddle-point states. The stability analysis revealed the existence of biological and bionomic equilibria. In this study, we found the optimal harvesting policy for both prey and predator species. Finally, numerical experiments were performed with various parameter values to observe the variation of equilibrium states.
