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.

We investigate a predator-prey model with dispersal for both predator and prey amongnpatches; our main purpose is to extend the global stability criteria by Li and Shuai (2010) on a predator-prey model with dispersal for prey amongnpatches. By using the method of constructing Lyapunov functions based on graph-theoretical approach for coupled systems, we derive sufficient conditions under which the positive coexistence equilibrium of this model is unique and globally asymptotically stable if it exists.

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.

AbstractThis is the second part of our study on the spatially heterogeneous predator–prey model where the interaction is governed by a Crowley–Martin type functional response. In part I, we have proved that when the predator competition is strong (i.e. k is large), the model has at most one positive steady-state solution for any $\mu \in \mathbb {R}$, moreover it is globally asymptotically stable for any $\mu >0$. This part is denoted to study the effect of saturation. Our result shows that the large saturation coefficient (i.e. large m) can not only lead to the uniqueness of positive solutions, but also lead to the multiplicity of positive solutions, moreover the stability of the corresponding positive solutions is also completely obtained. This work can be regarded as a supplement of Ref. [10].

A model of predator-prey interaction in a chemostat with Holling Type II functional and numerical response functions ofthe Monod or Michaelis-Menten form is considered. It is proved that local asymptotic stability of the coexistence equilibriumimplies that it is globally asymptotically stable. It is also shown that when the coexistence equilibrium exists but is unstable,solutions converge to a unique, orbitally asymptotically stable periodic orbit. Thus the range of the dynamics of the chemostatpredator-prey model is the same as for the analogous classical Rosenzweig-MacArthur predator-prey model with Holling TypeII functional response. An extension that applies to other functional rsponses is also given.

Predator–prey models in ecology serve a variety of purposes, which range from illustrating a scientific concept to representing a complex natural phenomenon. Due to the complexity and variability of the environment, the dynamic behavior obtained from existing predator–prey models often deviates from reality. Many factors remain to be considered, such as external forcing, harvesting and so on. In this chapter, we study a spatial version of the Ivlev-type predator-prey model that includes reaction-diffusion, external periodic forcing, and constant harvesting rate on prey. Using this model, we study how external periodic forcing affects the stability of predator-prey coexistence equilibrium. The results of spatial pattern analysis of the Ivlev-type predator-prey model with zero-flux boundary conditions, based on the Euler method and via numerical simulations in MATLAB, show that the model generates rich dynamics. Our results reveal that modeling by reaction-diffusion equations with external periodic forcing and nonzero constant prey harvesting could be used to make general predictions regarding predator-prey equilibrium,which may be used to guide management practice, and to provide a basis for the development of statistical tools and testable hypotheses.

AbstractIn this paper, we study a stochastic delay predator-prey model in a polluted environment. Sufficient criteria for extinction and non-persistence in the mean of the model are obtained. The critical value between persistence and extinction is also derived for each population. Finally, some numerical simulations are provided to support our main results.

In this work, we consider a three-dimensional predator-prey model with impulsive harvesting and diffusion at different fixed moments. We prove that all solutions of the investigated system are uniformly ultimately bounded. The conditions of the globally asymptotically stable prey-extinction boundary periodic solution of the investigated system are obtained, as well the permanence of the investigated system. Finally, numerical analysis is inserted to illustrate the results which provide reliable tactic basis for the practical biological resource management.

We present an efficient and accurate numerical method for solving a ratio-dependent predator–prey model with a Turing instability. The system is discretized by a finite difference method with a semi-implicit scheme which allows much larger time step sizes than those required by a standard explicit scheme. A proof is given for the positivity and boundedness of the numerical solutions depending only on the temporal, but not on the spatial step sizes. Finally, we perform numerical experiments demonstrating the robustness and accuracy of the numerical solution for the Turing instability. In particular, we show that the numerical nonconstant stationary solutions exist.
