Permanence and stability of an Ivlev-type predator–prey system with impulsive control strategies

In this paper, we study a predator–prey system with an Ivlev-type functional response and impulsive control strategies containing a biological control (periodic impulsive immigration of the predator) and a chemical control (periodic pesticide spraying) with the same period, but not simultaneously. We find conditions for the local stability of the prey-free periodic solution by applying the Floquet theory of an impulsive differential equation and small amplitude perturbation techniques to the system. In addition, it is shown that the system is permanent under some conditions by using comparison results of impulsive differential inequalities. Moreover, we add a forcing term into the prey population’s intrinsic growth rate and find the conditions for the stability and for the permanence of this system.
