Dynamics of a Beddington-DeAngelis type predator-prey system with constant rate harvesting
Electronic Journal of Qualitative Theory of Differential Equations, 2017 In the paper, a predator-prey system with Beddington-DeAngelis functional response and constant rate harvesting is considered. Various dynamical behaviors of the system including saddle-node points and a cusp of codimension 2 are investigated by using ...
