Abstract

<p style='text-indent:20px;'>In this paper, we study the dynamics of a Leslie-Gower predator-prey system with hunting cooperation among predator population and constant-rate harvesting for prey population. It is shown that there are a weak focus of multiplicity up to three and a cusp of codimension at most two for various parameter values, and the system exhibits two saddle-node bifurcations, a Bogdanov-Takens bifurcation of codimension two and a Hopf bifurcation as the bifurcation parameters vary. The results developed in this article reveal far more complex dynamics compared to the Leslie-Gower system and show how the prey harvesting and the hunting cooperation affect the dynamics of the system. In particular, there exist some critical values of prey harvesting and hunting cooperation such that the predator and prey populations are at risk of extinction if the intensities of harvesting and hunting cooperation are greater than these critical values. Moreover, numerical simulations are presented to illustrate our theoretical results.</p>
