One of the most efficient predator-prey models with spatial effects is the one with ratio-dependent functional response. However, there is a need to further explore the effects of spatial motion on the dynamic behavior of population. In this work, we study a ratio-dependent predator-prey model with diffusion terms. The aim of this work is to investigate the changes in predator’s distribution in space as the prey populations change their mobility. We observe that the frequency diffusion of the prey gives rise to the sparse density of the predator. Moreover, we also observe that the increasing rate of the conversion into predator biomass induces pattern transitions of the predator. Specifically speaking, Turing pattern of the predator populations goes gradually from a spotted pattern to a black-eye pattern, with the intermediate state being the mixture of spot and stripe pattern. The simulation results and analysis of this work illustrate that the diffusion rate and the real intrinsic factor influence the persistence of the predator-prey system mutually.

Ratio-dependent predator–prey models are favored by many animal ecologists recently as more suitable ones for predator–prey interactions where predation involves searching process. In this paper, a ratio-dependent predator–prey model with stage structure and time delay for prey is proposed and analyzed. In this model, we only consider the stage structure of immature and mature prey species and not consider the stage structure of predator species. We assume that the predator only feed on the mature prey and the time for prey from birth to maturity represented by a constant time delay. At first, we investigate the permanence and existence of the proposed model and sufficient conditions are derived. Then the global stability of the nonnegative equilibria are derived. We also get the sufficient criteria for stability switch of the positive equilibrium. Finally, some numerical simulations are carried out for supporting the analytic results.

This study focuses on the spatial-temporal dynamics of predator–prey model with cross-diffusion where the intake rate of prey is per capita predator according to ratio-dependent functional response and the prey is harvested through nonlinear harvesting strategy. The permanence analysis and local stability analysis of the proposed model without cross-diffusion are analyzed. We derive the conditions for the appearance of diffusion-driven instability and global stability of the considered model. Also the parameter space for Turing region is specified by keeping the cross-diffusion coefficient as one of the crucial parameters. Numerical simulations are given to justify the proposed theoretical results and to show that the cross-diffusion term plays a significant role in the pattern formation.

In this paper, we study a ratio-dependent predator-prey model with modied Holling-Tanner formalism, by using dynamical techniques and numerical continuation algorithms implemented in Matcont. We determine codim-1 and 2 bifurcation points and their corresponding normal form coecients. We also compute a curve of limit cycles of the system emanating from a Hopf point.
