This paper deals with a diffusive predator–prey model with two delays. First, we consider the local bifurcation and global dynamical behavior of the kinetic system, which is a predator–prey model with cooperative hunting and Allee effect. For the model with weak cooperation, we prove the existence of limit cycle, and a loop of heteroclinic orbits connecting two equilibria at a threshold of conversion rate p=p#, by investigating stable and unstable manifolds of saddles. When p>p#, both species go extinct, and when p<p#, there is a separatrix. The species with initial population above the separatrix finally become extinct, and the species with initial population below it can be coexisting, oscillating sustainably, or surviving of the prey only. In the case with strong cooperation, we exhibit the complex dynamics of system, including limit cycle, loop of heteroclinic orbits among three equilibria, and homoclinic cycle with the aid of theoretical analysis or numerical simulation. There may be three stable states coexisting: extinction state, coexistence or sustained oscillation, and the survival of the prey only, and the attraction basin of each state is obtained in the phase plane. Moreover, we find diffusion may induce Turing instability and Turing–Hopf bifurcation, leaving the system with spatially inhomogeneous distribution of the species, coexistence of two different spatial-temporal oscillations. Finally, we consider Hopf and double Hopf bifurcations of the diffusive system induced by two delays: mature delay of the prey and gestation delay of the predator. Normal form analysis indicates that two spatially homogeneous periodic oscillations may coexist by increasing both delays.

<p style='text-indent:20px;'>In this paper we propose a predator-prey model with a non-differentiable functional response in which the prey exhibits group defense and the predator exhibits cooperative hunting. There is a separatrix curve dividing the phase portrait. The species with initial population above the separatrix result in extinction of prey in finite time, and the species with initial population below it can coexist, oscillate sustainably or leave the prey surviving only. Detailed bifurcation analysis is carried out to explore the effect of cooperative hunting in the predator and aggregation in the prey on the existence and stability of the coexistence state as well as the dynamics of system. The model undergoes transcritical bifurcation, Hopf bifurcation, homoclinic (heteroclinic) bifurcation, saddle-node bifurcation, and Bogdanov-Takens bifurcation, and through numerical simulations it is found that it possesses rich dynamics including bubble loop of limit cycles, and open ended branch of periodic orbits disappearing through a homoclinic cycle or a loop of heteroclinic orbits. Also, a continuous transition of different types of Hopf branches are investigated which forms a global picture of Hopf bifurcation in the model.</p>

AbstractIn this article, we discuss the dynamics of a Leslie–Gower ratio-dependent predator–prey model incorporating fear in the prey population. Moreover, the Allee effect in the predator growth is added into account from both biological and mathematical points of view. We explore the influence of the Allee and fear effect on the existence of all positive equilibria. Furthermore, the local stability properties and possible bifurcation behaviors of the proposed system about positive equilibria are discussed with the help of trace and determinant values of the Jacobian matrix. With the help of Sotomayor’s theorem, the conditions for existence of saddle-node bifurcation are derived. Also, we show that the proposed system admits limit cycle dynamics, and its stability is discussed with the value of first Lyapunov coefficient. Moreover, the numerical simulations including phase portrait, one- and two-parameter bifurcation diagrams are performed to validate our important findings.

In this study, we consider a diffusive predator–prey model with multiple Allee effects induced by fear factors. We investigate the existence, boundedness and permanence of the solution of the system. We also discuss the existence and non-existence of non-constant solutions. We derive sufficient conditions for spatially homogeneous (non-homogenous) Hopf bifurcation and steady state bifurcation. Theoretical and numerical simulations show that strong Allee effect and fear effect have great effect on the dynamics of system.
