We consider a predator-prey relationship in a fair system in which interacting species have different needs of resources to survive. We analyzed qualitatively the outcome of interaction using a modified logistic predator-prey model with Allee threshold in both predator and prey equations. We showed that the system had very rich dynamical behavior as stability around fixed points and periodic solutions could be obtained at certain conditions. Interaction outcome is highly submitted to initial conditions, species behavior, and the threshold applied. Numerical results suggested adapting resource allocation and the threshold value to optimize ecosystem sustainability.

The dynamical behavior of a Holling II predator-prey model with control measures as nonlinear pulses is proposed and analyzed theoretically and numerically to understand how resource limitation affects pest population outbreaks. The threshold conditions for the stability of the pest-free periodic solution are given. Latin hypercube sampling/partial rank correlation coefficients are used to perform sensitivity analysis for the threshold concerning pest extinction to determine the significance of each parameter. Comparing this threshold value with that without resource limitation, our results indicate that it is essential to increase the pesticide’s efficacy against the pest and reduce its effectiveness against the natural enemy, while enhancing the efficiency of the natural enemies. Once the threshold value exceeds a critical level, both pest and its natural enemies populations can oscillate periodically. Further-more, when the pulse period and constant stocking number as a bifurcation parameter, the predator-prey model reveals complex dynamics. In addition, numerical results are presented to illustrate the feasibility of our main results.

<p style='text-indent:20px;'>In this paper, we consider a stochastic predator-prey model with general functional response, which is perturbed by nonlinear Lévy jumps. Firstly, We show that this model has a unique global positive solution with uniform boundedness of <inline-formula><tex-math id="M1">\begin{document}$ \theta\in(0,1] $\end{document}</tex-math></inline-formula>-th moment. Secondly, we obtain the threshold for extinction and exponential ergodicity of the one-dimensional Logistic system with nonlinear perturbations. Then based on the results of Logistic system, we introduce a new technique to study the ergodic stationary distribution for the stochastic predator-prey model with general functional response and nonlinear jump-diffusion, and derive the sufficient and almost necessary condition for extinction and ergodicity.</p>

We study the dynamics of a delayed predator-prey model with double Allee effect. For the temporal model, we showed that there exists a threshold of time delay in predator-prey interactions; when time delay is below the threshold value, the positive equilibriumE∗is stable. However, when time delay is above the threshold value, the positive equilibriumE∗is unstable and period solution will emerge. For the spatiotemporal model, through numerical simulations, we show that the model dynamics exhibit rich parameter space Turing structures. The obtained results show that this system has rich dynamics; these patterns show that it is useful for a delayed predator-prey model with double Allee effect to reveal the spatial dynamics in the real model.

It is well known that dynamical systems deal with situations in which the system transforms over time. In fact, undertaking a manual simulation of such systems is a difficult task due to the complexity of the computations. Therefore, a computerized simulation is frequently required for accurate results and fast execution time. Nowadays, computer programs have become an important tool to confirm the theoretical results obtained from the study of models. This paper aims to employ new MATLAB codes to examine a discrete predator–prey model using a difference equations system. The paper discusses the existences and stabilities of each possible fixed point appearing in the current model. Furthermore, numerical simulations fixed by a certain parameter to plot the diagrams are presented. Our results confirm that the systems sensitive to initial conditions are chaotic. Furthermore, the theoretical results as well as numerical examples illustrated that the discrete model exhibits complex behavior compared to a continuous model. The conclusion drawn is that the numerical simulation is an important tool to confirm theoretical results.

In this paper, we propose a time-delayed predator-prey model with Holling-type II functional response, which incorporates the gestation period and the cost of fear into prey reproduction. The dynamical behavior of this system is both analytically and numerically investigated from the viewpoint of stability, permanence, and bifurcation. We found that there are stability switches, and Hopf bifurcations occur when the delay τ passes through a sequence of critical values. The explicit formulae which determine the direction, stability, and other properties of the bifurcating periodic solutions are given by using the normal form theory and center manifold theorem. We perform extensive numerical simulations to explore the impact of some important parameters on the dynamics of the system. Numerical simulations show that high levels of fear have a stabilizing effect while relatively low levels of fear have a destabilizing effect on the predator-prey interactions which lead to limit-cycle oscillations. We also found that the model with or without a delay-dependent factor can have a significantly different dynamics. Thus, ignoring the delay or not including the delay-dependent factor might result in inaccurate modelling predictions.

We propose a stochastic predator-prey model to study a novel idea that involves investigating random noises effects on the enrichment paradox phenomenon. Existence and stochastic boundedness of a unique positive solution with positive initial conditions are proved. The global asymptotic stability is studied to determine the occurrence of the enrichment paradox phenomenon. We show theoretically that intensive noises play an important role in the occurrence of the phenomenon, where increasing intensive noises lead to occurrence of the paradox of enrichment. We perform numerical simulations to verify and demonstrate the theoretical results. The new results in this study may contribute to increasing attention to study the random noise effects on some ecological and biological phenomena as the paradox of enrichment.

In this paper, a predator–prey model with prey-stage structure and prey-taxis is proposed and studied. Firstly, the local stability of non-negative constant equilibria is analyzed. It is shown that non-negative equilibria have the same stability between ODE system and self-diffusion system, and self-diffusion does not have a destabilization effect. We find that there exists a threshold value [Formula: see text] such that the positive equilibrium point of the model becomes unstable when the prey-taxis rate [Formula: see text], hence the taxis-driven Turing instability occurs. Furthermore, by applying Crandall–Rabinowitz bifurcation theory, the existence, the stability and instability, and the turning direction of bifurcating steady state are investigated in detail. Finally, numerical simulations are provided to support the mathematical analysis.
