Abstract

The present work is focused on a predator–prey model with the Holling type II interaction function, which is influenced by diffusion, advection and nonlinear reaction effects. Firstly, we show that the solutions of this dynamical model are bounded and unique. Secondly we use the Lyapunov function and then show that the equilibrium points are globally stable. Thirdly, we obtain the solution profile when the diffusion coefficient is small. For this purpose we introduce self-similar structures to convert the nonlinear partial differential equations into nonlinear ordinary differential equations and then use the singular perturbation technique to solve these equations. Fourthly, we use the Hamiltonian and Lighthill’s technique to obtain upper stationary solutions for a small coefficient of the advection term. Lastly, we consider a large diffusion coefficient and obtain the asymptotic profiles of nonstationary solutions with the help of nonlinear point scaling.
