Periodic Solutions in Kolmogorov-Type Predator–Prey Systems

We consider a class of prey-predator models, i.e., a Kolmogorov-type system. We are interested in their dynamics when a certain parameter (that can be viewed as the death rate of the predator) changes from zero value to positive. By utilizing alternative but simple techniques, including a sub- and super-solutions method, we establish the existence of periodic solutions when some conditions are satisfied. We also prove that the solutions are bounded by a non-periodic trajectory when the parameter vanishes. We give an example to illustrate our results.
