In this paper, a stage-structured predator–prey model is proposed and analyzed with density-dependent maturation delay. We studied the dynamics of our model analytically and obtained conditions which influence the positivity and boundedness of all populations. Criteria for the existence of a non-trivial equilibrium and conditions for the uniqueness of this equilibrium are given. A linearized analysis on the equilibria, which is algebraically very complicated in the case of non-trivial equilibrium, is carried out. We proved that the system is globally asymptotically stable in the situation when non-trivial equilibrium does not exist. To accomplish our all analytical findings and to investigate the effect of density-dependent maturation delay on the system behavior, we presented a numerical simulation. It is concluded that variations in parameter, which we introduce in the system to observe the effect of density-dependent maturation delay, produces significant quantitative changes in system behavior and also qualitative changes in the behavior of immature predator population.

In this paper, we consider a predator-prey model incorporating fear and refuge.  Our results show that the predator-free equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable if the ratio between the death rate of predators and the conversion rate of prey into predator is greater than the value of prey in refuge at equilibrium.  We also show that the co-existence equilibrium points are locally asymptotically stable if the value of the prey outside refuge is greater than half of the carrying capacity.  Numerical simulations show that when the intensity of fear increases, the fraction of the prey inside refuge increases; however, it has no effect on the fraction of the prey outside refuge, in the long run. It is shown that the intensity of fear harms predator population size. Numerical simulations show that the application of Z-control will force the system to reach any desired state within a limited time, whether the desired state is a constant state or a periodic state. Our results show that when the refuge size is taken to be a non-constant function of the prey outside refuge, the systems change their dynamics. Namely, when it is a linear function or an exponential function, the system always reaches the predator-free equilibrium.  However, when it is taken as a logistic equation, the system reaches the co-existence equilibrium after long term oscillations.

A new stochastic predator-prey model is introduced. The predator population X(t) is described by a linear birth-and-death process with birth rate λ 1 X and death rate μ 1 X. The prey population Y(t) is described by a linear birth-and-death process in which the birth rate is λ 2 Y and the death rate is . It is proven that and iff

By piecewise Euler method, a discrete Lotka-Volterra predator-prey model with impulsive effect at fixed moment is proposed and investigated. By using Floquets theorem, we show that a globally asymptotically stable pest-eradication periodic solution exists when the impulsive period is less than some critical value. Further, we prove that the discrete system is permanence if the impulsive period is larger than some critical value. Finally, some numerical experiments are given.

Eco-epidemiological models are now receiving much attention to the researchers. In the present article we re-visit the model of Holling-Tanner which is recently modified by Haque and Venturino1 with the introduction of disease in prey population. Density dependent disease-induced predator mortality function is an important consideration of such systems. We extend the model of Haque and Venturino1 with density dependent disease-induced predator mortality function. The existence and local stability of the equilibrium points and the conditions for the permanence and impermanence of the system are worked out. The system shows different dynamical behaviour including chaos for different values of the rate of infection. The model considered by Haque and Venturino1 also exhibits chaotic nature but they did not shed any light in this direction. Our analysis reveals that by controlling disease-induced mortality of predator due to ingested infected prey may prevent the occurrence of chaos.

The Impact

In this paper, we propose and analyze a predator–prey model with a prey refuge and additional food for predators. We study the impact of a prey refuge on the stability dynamics, when a constant proportion or a constant number of prey moves to the refuge area. The system dynamics are studied using both analytical and numerical techniques. We observe that the prey refuge can replace the predator–prey oscillations by a stable equilibrium if the refuge size crosses a threshold value. It is also observed that, if the refuge size is very high, then the extinction of the predator population is certain. Further, we observe that enhancement of additional food for predators prevents the extinction of the predator and also replaces the stable limit cycle with a stable equilibrium. Our results suggest that additional food for the predators enhances the stability and persistence of the system. Extensive numerical experiments are performed to illustrate our analytical findings.

In this paper, we are concerned with a diffusive predator–prey model where the functional response follows the predator cooperation in hunting and the growth of the prey obeys the Allee effect. Firstly, the existence and stability of the positive equilibrium are explicitly determined by the local system parameters. It is shown that the ability of the hunting cooperation can affect the existence of the positive equilibrium and stability, and the intrinsic growth rate of the predator population does not affect the existence of the positive equilibrium, but affects the stability. Then the diffusion-driven Turing instability is investigated and the Turing bifurcation value is obtained, and we conclude that when the ability of the cooperation in hunting is weaker than some critical value, there is no Turing instability. The standard weakly nonlinear analysis method is employed to derive the amplitude equations of the Turing bifurcation, which is used to predict the types of the spatial patterns. And it is found that in the Turing instability region, with the parameter changing from approaching Turing bifurcation value to approaching Hopf bifurcation value, spatial patterns emerge from spot, spot-stripe to stripe. Finally, the numerical simulations are used to support the analytical results.
