Positive solutions of a diffusive Leslie-Gower predator-prey model with Bazykin functional response (Q2449552)

The author studies positive solutions of the diffusive Leslie-Gower predator-prey model \[ -\Delta u=u(a-u-bvf(u,v))-\Delta v=v(c-dvf(u,v)), \quad x \in \Omega; \quad u=v=0, \quad x \in \partial\Omega \tag{1} \] where \(\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^N\) is a bounded domain, \(a,b,c,d\) are positive constants with Bazykin functional response \(f(u,v)=(1+\alpha u)^{-1}(1+\beta v)^{-1}\), \(\alpha,\beta >0\). First, under some restrictions on parameters, two theorems on the existence of at least one positive solution are proved, then two results about bifurcation and stability of bifurcation positive solutions, where \(a\) is the bifurcation parameter. In conclusion, under some conditions on parameters, a theorem giving existence of a unique solution is proved.
