Analyses of Bifurcations and Stability in a Predator-prey System with Holling Type-Ⅳ Functional Response

In this paper the dynamical behaviors of a predator-prey system with Holling Type-Ⅳfunctionalresponse are investigated in detail by using the analyses of qualitative method,bifurcation theory,and numericalsimulation.The qualitative analyses and numerical simulation for the model indicate that it has a unique stablelimit cycle.The bifurcation analyses of the system exhibit static and dynamical bifurcations including saddle-node bifurcation,Hopf bifurcation,homoclinic bifurcation and bifurcation of cusp-type with codimension two(ie,the Bogdanov-Takens bifurcation),and we show the existence of codimension three degenerated equilibriumand the existence of homoclinic orbit by using numerical simulation.
