Dynamic Complexity in a Prey-Predator Model with State-Dependent Impulsive Control Strategy

Abstract EN

In this paper, an ecological model described by a couple of state-dependent impulsive equations is studied analytically and numerically.

The theoretical analysis suggests that there exists a semitrivial periodic solution under some conditions and it is globally orbitally asymptotically stable.

Furthermore, using the successor function, we study the existence, uniqueness, and stability of order-1 periodic solution, and the boundedness of solution is also presented.

The relationship between order-k successor function and order-k periodic solution is discussed as well, thereby giving the existence condition of an order-3 periodic solution.

In addition, a series of numerical simulations are carried out, which not only support the theoretical results but also show the complex dynamics in the model further, for example, the coexistence of multiple periodic solutions, chaos, and period-doubling bifurcation.
