Dynamic behaviors of the periodic predator–prey system with distributed time delays and impulsive effect

Abstract

In this paper, a periodic predator–prey system with distributed time delays and impulsive effect is investigated. By using the Floquet theory of linear periodic impulsive equation, some conditions for the linear stability of trivial periodic solution and semi-trivial periodic solutions are obtained. It is proved that the system can be permanent if all the trivial and semi-trivial periodic solutions are linearly unstable. We improve some results in Guo and Chen (2009) [1].
