Global Asymptotic Stability and Hopf Bifurcation in a Homogeneous Diffusive Predator-Prey System with Holling Type II Functional Response

摘要

In this paper, we considered a homogeneous reaction-diffusion predator-prey system with Holling type II functional response subject to Neumann boundary conditions. Some new sufficient conditions were analytically established to ensure that this system has globally asymptotically stable equilibria and Hopf bifurcation surrounding interior equilibrium. In the analysis of Hopf bifurcation, based on the phenomenon of Turing instability and well-done conditions, the system undergoes a Hopf bifurcation and an example incorporating with numerical simulations to support the existence of Hopf bifurcation is presented. We also derived a useful algorithm for determining direction of Hopf bifurcation and stability of bifurcating periodic solutions correspond to j ≠0 and j = 0, respectively. Finally, all these theoretical results are expected to be useful in the future study of dynamical complexity of ecological environment.
