Abstract

A delayed periodic Holling-type predator?prey model without instantaneous negative feedback is investigated. By using the continuation theorem of coincidence degree theory and by constructing suitable Lyapunov functionals, a set of easily verifiable sufficient conditions are derived for the existence, uniqueness and global stability of positive periodic solutions to the model. Numerical simulation is carried out to illustrate the feasibility of our main results.
