Non-existence of non-constant positive steady states of two Holling type-II predator–prey systems: Strong interaction case

Abstract We prove the non-existence of non-constant positive steady state solutions of two reaction–diffusion predator–prey models with Holling type-II functional response when the interaction between the predator and the prey is strong. The result implies that the global bifurcating branches of steady state solutions are bounded loops.
