Dynamics of a diffusive predator–prey model with herd behavior

This paper is devoted to considering a diffusive predator–prey model with Leslie–Gower term and herd behavior subject to the homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions. Concretely, by choosing the proper bifurcation parameter, the local stability of constant equilibria of this model without diffusion and the existence of Hopf bifurcation are investigated by analyzing the distribution of the eigenvalues. Furthermore, the explicit formula for determining the direction of Hopf bifurcation and the stability of the bifurcating periodic solutions are also derived by applying the normal form theory. Next, we show the stability of positive constant equilibrium, the existence and stability of periodic solutions near positive constant equilibrium for the diffusive model. Finally, some numerical simulations are carried out to support the analytical results

Existence and stability of periodic solutions for a delayed prey–predator model with diffusion effects

Existence and stability of spatially periodic solutions for a delay prey-predator diffusion system are concerned in this work. We obtain that the system can generate the spatially nonhomogeneous periodic solutions when the diffusive rates are suitably small. This result demonstrates that the diffusion plays an important role on deriving the complex spatiotemporal dynamics. Meanwhile, the stability of the spatially periodic solutions is also studied. Finally, in order to verify our theoretical results, some numerical simulations are also included

On the Lyapunov functional of Leslie-Gower predator-prey models with time-delay and Holling's functional responses

The global stability on the dynamical behavior of the Leslie-Gower predator-prey system with delayed prey specific growth is analyzed by constructing the corresponding Lyapunov functional. Three different types of famous Holling's functional responses are considered in the present study. The sufficient conditions for the global stability analysis of the unique positive equilibrium point are derived accordingly. A numerical example is presented to illustrate the effect of different Holling-Type functional responses on the global stability of the Leislie-Gower predator-prey model

Dynamics of a Leslie-Gower predator-prey system with cross-diffusion

A Leslie–Gower predator–prey system with cross-diffusion subject to Neumann boundary conditions is considered. The global existence and boundedness of solutions are shown. Some sufficient conditions ensuring the existence of nonconstant solutions are obtained by means of the Leray–Schauder degree theory. The local and global stability of the positive constant steady-state solution are investigated via eigenvalue analysis and Lyapunov procedure. Based on center manifold reduction and normal form theory, Hopf bifurcation direction and the stability of bifurcating timeperiodic solutions are investigated and a normal form of Bogdanov–Takens bifurcation is determined as well

Dynamic analysis of a Leslie–Gower-type predator–prey system with the fear effect and ratio-dependent Holling III functional response

In this paper, we extend a Leslie–Gower-type predator–prey system with ratio-dependent Holling III functional response considering the cost of antipredator defence due to fear. We study the impact of the fear effect on the model, and we find that many interesting dynamical properties of the model can occur when the fear effect is present. Firstly, the relationship between the fear coefficient K and the positive equilibrium point is introduced. Meanwhile, the existence of the Turing instability, the Hopf bifurcation, and the Turing–Hopf bifurcation are analyzed by some key bifurcation parameters. Next, a normal form for the Turing–Hopf bifurcation is calculated. Finally, numerical simulations are carried out to corroborate our theoretical results

Controllability of an eco-epidemiological system with disease transmission delay: A theoretical study

This paper deals with the qualitative analysis of a disease transmission delay induced prey preda-tor system in which disease spreads among the predator species only. The growth of the preda-tors’ susceptible and infected subpopulations is assumed as modified Leslie–Gower type. Suffi-cient conditions for the persistence, permanence, existence and stability of equilibrium points are obtained. Global asymptotic stability of the system is investigated around the coexisting equilib-rium using a geometric approach. The existence of Hopf bifurcation phenomenon is also exam-ined with respect to some important parameters of the system. The criterion for disease a trans-mission delay the induced Hopf bifurcation phenomenon is obtained and subsequently, we use a normal form method and the center manifold theorem to examine the nature of the Hopf bifurca-tion. It is clearly observed that competition among predators can drive the system to a stable from an unstable state. Also the infection and competition among predator population enhance the availability of prey for harvesting when their values are high. Finally, some numerical simu-lations are carried out to illustrate the analytical results
