Analysis of a Prey-predator Model with Disease in Prey

摘要

In this paper,a system of reaction-diffusion equations arising in ecoepidemiological systems is investigated. The equations model a situation in which a predator species and a prey species inhabit the same bounded region and the predator only eats the prey with transmissible diseases. Local stability of the constant positive solution is considered. A number of existence and non-existence results about the nonconstant steady states of a reaction diffusion system are given. It is proved that if the diffusion coefficient of the prey with disease is treated as a bifurcation parameter,non-constant positive steady-state solutions may bifurcate from the constant steadystate solution under some conditions.
