摘要：A ratio-dependent predator-prey system with time delay due to the gestation of the predator and stage structure for both the predator and the prey is investigated. By analyzing the corresponding characteristic equations, the local stability of the predator-extinction equilibrium and the coexistence equilibrium of the system are discussed, respectively. Further, the existence of Hopf bifurcation at the coexistence equilibrium is also studied. By comparison arguments, sufficient conditions are obtained for the global stability of the predator-extinction equilibrium. By using an iteration technique, sufficient conditions are derived for the global stability of the coexistence equilibrium. Numerical simulations are carried out to illustrate the analytical results.
