The dynamics of an impulsive delay predator-prey model with variable coefficients

Abstract In this paper, we formulate a new robust two-species nonautonomous predator–prey model with multi-delays and impulsive effects and perform a systematic mathematical and ecological study. Our results in this paper indicate that under the appropriate linear periodic impulsive perturbations, the system is permanent and has a unique positive globally attractive semi-trivial periodic solution. By using the Brouwer fixed point theorem, we prove that if the periodic system is permanent, then there is at least one positive periodic solution of the system. We show that the conditions for global attractivity of the positive semi-trivial periodic solution and permanence of the population of the model depend on time delay, so, we call it “profitless”. In this paper, the main feature is that we introduce multi-delays and impulses into the predator–prey model, exhibit a new modeling method which is applied to investigate multi-species impulsive multi-delays differential equations.
