Abstract

In this paper, the dynamics of a predator-prey model is proposed and analyzed. Three types of refuges: those that protect a constant number of prey population, a constant proportion of prey population and a function of predator-prey encounters  using refuges are considered. Linear stability analysis based on Lyapunov theory and Jacobi stability analysis based on KCC theory are carried out. Comparisons of results obtained in both cases shows that, Jacobi stability analysis of these models reflects the better ecological
interpretation.
