Optimal harvesting and stability for a predator-prey system with stage structure. (Q1862813): Difference between revisions

A predator-prey model with stage structure is considered. The prey populations are classified as immature and mature in order to model the stage structure and a time delay is used to account the time of maturity. It is also assumed that the mature prey is being harvested at a constant rate and both the mature prey and predator have nonlinear death rates. Conditions on global stability of the steady states and a threshold value for the harvesting constant are given.
