Novel Dynamics in an Additional Food provided Predator-Prey System with mutual interference [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 The provision of additional food (AF) sources to an introduced predator has been identified as a mechanism to improve pest control. However, AF models with prey dependent functional responses can cause unbounded growth of the predator \cite{S27}. To avoid such dynamics, an AF model with mutual interference effect has been proposed \cite{S02}.
