Source abstract
<p>In this contribution, the complicated dynamical behaviors and optimal harvesting policy of a discrete-time predator–prey model with fear and refuge effects are formulated. Both the fear and prey refuge effects refer to an interaction between predator and prey. In the first place, the existence and local stability of three fixed points of proposed model are investigated by virtue of our methodology, that is, the eigenvalues of the Jacobian matrix. One step further, it is worth mentioning that the model undergoes flip bifurcation (i.e., period–doubling bifurcation) and Neimark–Sacker bifurcation at the interior fixed point by the utilization of bifurcation theory and center manifold theory. Also, optimal harvesting strategy is investigated, and the expressions of optimal harvesting efforts are determined. Two examples, in the end, are put forward to prove that they are consistent with the previous theoretical results.</p>
