Abstract

A delayed periodic Lotka?Volterra type predator-prey model with prey dispersal in two-patch environments is investigated. By using Gaines and Mawhin's continuation theorem of coincidence degree theory and by means of a suitable Lyapunov functional, a set of easily verifiable sufficient conditions are obtained to guarantee the existence, uniqueness and global stability of positive periodic solutions of the system. Numerical simulations are given to illustrate the feasibility of our main results.
