The dynamics of a prey-predator system with a finite delay is investigated. We show that a sequence of Hopf bifurcations occurs at the positive equilibrium as the delay increases. By using the theory of normal form and center manifold, explicit expressions for determining the direction of the Hopf bifurcations and the stability of the bifurcating periodic solutions are derived.
1. Introduction
The theoretical study of predator-prey systems in mathemat-ical ecology has a long history beginning with the famous Lotka-Volterra equations because of their universal existence and importance. One of the ecological models proposed and analyzed by Bazykin [1] is ̇𝑥 1= 𝑥1(1 − 𝑥2) − 𝜀𝑥12, ̇𝑥 2= −𝛾𝑥2+𝑛 + 𝑥𝑥2 2𝑥1𝑥2, (1)
where𝜀, 𝛾, and 𝑛 are positive constants and 𝑥1 and 𝑥2 are functions of time representing population densities of prey and predator, respectively. This system can be used to describe the dynamics of the prey-predator system when the non-linearity of predator reproduction and prey competitive are both taken into account. Bazykin [1] pointed out that for the system (1) the degenerate Bogdanov-Takens bifurcation exists when𝛾 = 4/3, 𝑛 = 1/3, and 𝜀 = 1/4 and conjectured that it is a nondegenerate codim 3 bifurcation. Kuznetsov [2] proved the conjecture is correct by using critical (generalized) eigen-vectors of the linearized matrix and its transpose. However, time delays commonly exist in biological system, information transfer system, and so on. Therefore, time delays of one type or another have been incorporated into mathematical
models of population dynamics due to maturation time, capturing time, or other reasons. In general, delay differential equations exhibit much more complicated dynamics than ordinary differential equations since a time delay may lead to changes of stability of equilibrium and the fluctuation of the populations. So far, a great deal of research has been devoted to the delayed predator-prey system. See, for example, the monographs of Cushing [3], Gopalsamy [4], and Kuang [5] for general delayed biological systems and Beretta and Kuang [6, 7], Faria [8], Gopalsamy [9, 10], May [11], Song et al. [12–14], Xiao and Ruan [15], and Liu and Yuan [16] and the references cited therein for studies on delayed prey-predator systems. In the above references, normal form and center manifold theory were one of important methods to study the stability and Hopf bifurcation of the delayed predator-prey systems. Considering the maturation time of the predator, Bazykin [1] becomes the following delayed model:
̇𝑥 1= 𝑥1(1 − 𝑥2(𝑡 − 𝜏)) − 𝜀𝑥21, ̇𝑥 2= −𝛾𝑥2+𝑛 + 𝑥𝑥2 2𝑥1𝑥2. (2)
In this paper, we first discuss the effect of the time𝜏 on the stability of the positive equilibrium of the system (2). Then we investigate the existence of the Hopf bifurcation, the bifurcating direction, and the stability of the bifurcation

periodic solutions by the theory of normal form and center manifold. Explicit expressions for determining the direction of the Hopf bifurcations and the stability of the bifurcation periodic solutions are derived.
2. The Existence of Hopf Bifurcations
In this section, we study the existence of the Hopf bifurcations of system (2). Clearly, when−1 < 𝑛 < 0, system (2) has only one positive equilibrium, that is,
𝐸 (1 + 𝛾𝜀 − √(1 − 𝛾𝜀) 2− 4𝜀𝛾𝑛 2𝜀 , 1 − 𝛾𝜀 + √(1 − 𝛾𝜀)2− 4𝜀𝛾𝑛 2 ) . (3) Let 𝑥(0)1 = 1 + 𝛾𝜀 − √(1 − 𝛾𝜀) 2− 4𝜀𝛾𝑛 2𝜀 ; 𝑥(0)2 = 1 − 𝛾𝜀 + √(1 − 𝛾𝜀) 2− 4𝜀𝛾𝑛 2 , (4)
then system (2) becomes
̇𝑥 1= −𝜀𝑥(0)1 (𝑥1− 𝑥(0)1 ) − 𝑥(0)1 (𝑥2(𝑡 − 𝜏) − 𝑥(0)2 ) − (𝑥1− 𝑥(0)1 ) (𝑥2(𝑡 − 𝜏) − 𝑥(0)2 ) − 𝜀(𝑥1− 𝑥(0)1 ) 2 , ̇𝑥 2= 𝑥 (0) 2 𝑛 + 𝑥(0)2 (𝑥1− 𝑥 (0) 1 ) + (−𝛾 +2𝑛𝑥 (0) 1 𝑥(0)2 + 𝑥(0)1 (𝑥(0)2 ) 2 (𝑛 + 𝑥(0) 2 ) 2 ) (𝑥2− 𝑥(0)2 ) + ⋅ ⋅ ⋅ . (5) By introducing the new variables𝑧1(𝑡) = 𝑥1(𝑡) − 𝑥1(0),𝑧2(𝑡) = 𝑥2(𝑡)−𝑥(0)
2 and denoting𝑓(𝑥1, 𝑥2) = −𝛾𝑥2+(𝑥2/(𝑛+𝑥2))𝑥1𝑥2,
system (5) can be rewritten in a simpler form as
̇𝑧 1(𝑡) = −𝛼1𝑧1(𝑡) − 𝛼2𝑧2(𝑡 − 𝜏) − 𝑧1(𝑡) 𝑧2(𝑡 − 𝜏) − 𝜀𝑧21(𝑡) , ̇𝑧 2(𝑡) = 𝑟1𝑧1(𝑡) + 𝑟2𝑧2(𝑡) + ∑𝑖!𝑗!1 𝑐𝑖𝑗𝑧𝑖1(𝑡) 𝑧2𝑗(𝑡) , (6) where 𝛼1= 𝜀𝑥(0)1 , 𝛼2= 𝑥1(0), 𝑟1= 𝑥 (0) 2 𝑛 + 𝑥(0)2 , 𝑟2= −𝛾 + 2𝑛𝑥 (0) 1 𝑥(0)2 + 𝑥(0)1 (𝑥(0)2 ) 2 (𝑛 + 𝑥(0)2 )2 , (7)
and𝑐𝑖𝑗 = 𝜕𝑖+𝑗𝑓(𝑥(0)1 , 𝑥(0)2 )/𝜕𝑥𝑖1𝜕𝑥𝑗2. Then the linearization of system (2) at𝐸 is ̇𝑧 1(𝑡) = −𝛼𝑧1(𝑡) − 𝛼2𝑧2(𝑡 − 𝜏) , ̇𝑧 2(𝑡) = 𝑟1𝑧1(𝑡) + 𝑟2𝑧2(𝑡) . (8) The associated characteristic equation of (8) is given by
𝜆 + 𝛼1 𝛼2𝑒−𝜆𝜏
−𝑟1 𝜆 − 𝑟2 = 0. (9) That is,
𝜆2+ (𝛼1− 𝑟2) 𝜆 − 𝛼1𝑟2+ 𝛼2𝑟1𝑒−𝜆𝜏= 0. (10) The equilibrium𝐸 is stable if all roots of (10) have negative real parts. Clearly, when𝜏 = 0, the characteristic equation (10) becomes
𝜆2+ (𝛼1− 𝑟2) 𝜆 − 𝛼1𝑟2+ 𝛼2𝑟1= 0. (11) By directly computing, we known that𝑟2 < 0 when −1 < 𝑛 < 0. Therefore all roots of (11) have negative real parts. Obviously,𝜆 = 𝑖𝜔(𝜔> 0) is a root of (10) if and only if𝜔 satisfies
−𝜔2+ 𝑖 (𝛼1− 𝑟2) 𝜔 − 𝛼1𝑟2+ 𝛼2𝑟1𝑒−𝑖𝜔𝜏= 0. (12) Separating the real and imaginary parts, we have
−𝜔2− 𝛼1𝑟2+ 𝛼2𝑟1cos𝜔 𝜏 = 0, (𝛼1− 𝑟2) 𝜔 − 𝛼2𝑟1sin𝜔 𝜏 = 0,
(13) which leads to
𝜔4+ (𝛼12+ 𝑟22) 𝜔2+ 𝛼12𝑟22− 𝛼22𝑟21= 0. (14) When𝛼12𝑟22− 𝛼22𝑟12< 0, (14) has only one positive root
𝜔∗= √− (𝛼
2
1+ 𝑟22) + √(𝛼21+ 𝑟22)2− 4 (𝛼12𝑟22− 𝛼22𝑟12)
2 .
(15)
Substituting (15) into (13), we obtain 𝜏𝑗= 1 𝜔∗arccos 𝜔∗2+ 𝛼1𝑟2 𝛼2𝑟1 + 2𝑗𝜋 𝜔∗ , 𝑗 = 0, 1, 2, . . . . (16) Thus, when𝜏 = 𝜏𝑗, the characteristic equation (10) has a pair of purely imaginary roots±𝑖𝜔∗.
Lemma 1. Let 𝜆𝑗(𝜏) = 𝜂𝑗(𝜏) + 𝑖𝜔𝑗(𝜏) be the root of (10)
satisfying
𝜂𝑗(𝜏𝑗) = 0, 𝜔𝑗(𝜏𝑗) = 𝜔∗, 𝑗 = 0, 1, 2, . . . , (17)
and then
Proof. Differentiating both sides of (10) with respect to𝜏, we obtain (2𝜆 + 𝛼1− 𝑟2− 𝛼2𝑟1𝜏𝑒−𝜆𝜏)𝑑𝜆𝑑𝜏 = 𝛼2𝑟1𝜆𝑒−𝜆𝜏. (19) Therefore, sign{𝑑 (Re (𝜆)) 𝑑𝜏 }𝜏=𝜏𝑗 = sign {Re (𝑑𝜆 𝑑𝜏) −1 } 𝜏=𝜏𝑗
=sign {Re[2𝜔∗+ (𝛼1− 𝑟2)] (cos 𝜆𝜏 + 𝑖 sin 𝜆𝜏) − 𝜏𝑖𝜔 𝑗𝛼2𝑟1
∗𝛼2𝑟1 } = sign {[[2𝜔∗+ (𝛼1− 𝑟2)] [𝛼1− 𝑟2]] 𝛼2 2𝑟12 } > 0. (20) Thus, the lemma follows.
Therefore, from Lemma1and the relations between roots of (10) and (11) [17], we have the following conclusion.
Lemma 2. When 𝜏 ∈ [0, 𝜏0), all roots of (10) have negative
real parts. When𝜏 = 𝜏0, all roots of (10) have negative real
parts except±𝑖𝜔∗. When𝜏 ∈ (𝜏𝑗, 𝜏𝑗+1], (10) has2(𝑗 + 1) roots
with positive real parts.
Furthermore, from Lemma 2, the following theorem holds.
Theorem 3. If 𝜏 ∈ [0, 𝜏0), then the positive equilibrium 𝐸 is
asymptotically stable and unstable if𝜏 > 𝜏0. If 𝜏 = 𝜏𝑗, (2)
undergoes a Hopf bifurcation at𝐸.
3. Stability and Direction of
the Hopf Bifurcation
Let𝑢𝑖 = 𝑧𝑖(𝜏𝑡) and 𝜏 = 𝜏𝑗 + 𝜇, where 𝜇 ∈ 𝑅. Then (2) can be written as a functional differential equation in𝐶 = 𝐶([−1, 0], 𝑅2) as
̇𝑢 (𝑡) = 𝐿𝜇(𝑢𝑡) + 𝐹 (𝜇, 𝑢𝑡) , (21)
where𝑢𝑡(𝜃) = 𝑥(𝑡 + 𝜃) ∈ 𝐶, and 𝐿𝜇: 𝐶 → 𝑅, 𝐹 : 𝑅 × 𝐶 → 𝑅 are given, respectively, by
𝐿𝜇(𝜙) = (𝜏(𝑗)+ 𝜇) (−𝛼1 0 𝑟1 𝑟2) ( 𝜙1(0) 𝜙2(0)) + (𝜏(𝑗)+ 𝜇) (0 −𝛼2 0 0 ) (𝜙𝜙12(−1)(−1)) , (22) 𝐹 (𝜇, 𝜙) = (𝜏(𝑗)+ 𝜇) ( −𝜙1(0) 𝜙2(−1) − 𝜀𝜙12(0) + h.o.t Σ𝑖!𝑗!1 𝑐𝑖𝑗𝜙𝑖1(0) 𝜙2𝑗(0) + h.o.t ) , (23) where h.o.t denotes the higher order terms.
From the discussions above, we known that if 𝜇 = 0, then system (21) undergoes a Hopf bifurcation at the zero equilibrium and the associated characteristic equation of system (21) has a pair of simple imaginary roots±𝑖𝜏𝑗𝜔0.
By the Reiz representation theorem, there exists a func-tion𝜂(𝜃, 𝜇) of bounded variation for 𝜃 ∈ [−1, 0], such that
𝐿𝜇𝜙 = ∫0
−1𝑑𝜂 (𝜃, 0) 𝜙 (𝜃) for 𝜙 ∈ 𝐶. (24)
In fact, we can choose
𝜂 (𝜃, 𝜇) = (𝜏(𝑗)+ 𝜇) (−𝛼1 0 𝑟1 𝑟2) 𝛿 (𝜃) − (𝜏(𝑗)+ 𝜇) (0 −𝛼2 0 0 ) 𝛿 (𝜃 + 1) , (25) where 𝛿 (𝜃) = {0, 𝜃 ̸= 0,1, 𝜃 = 0. (26) For𝜙 ∈ 𝐶1([−1, 0], 𝑅2), define 𝐴 (𝜇) 𝜙 = { { { { { { { { { 𝑑𝜙 (𝜃) 𝑑𝜃 , 𝜃 ∈ [−1, 0] , ∫0 −1𝑑𝜂 (𝑠, 𝜇) 𝜙 (𝑠) , 𝜃 = 0, 𝑅 (𝜇) 𝜙 = {0, 𝜃 ∈ [−1, 0] , 𝐹 (𝜇, 𝜙) , 𝜃 = 0. (27)
Then we can rewrite (21) as
̇𝑢𝑡= 𝐴 (𝜇) 𝑢𝑡+ 𝑅 (𝜇) 𝑥𝑡, (28) where𝑢𝑡(𝜃) = 𝑢(𝑡 + 𝜃), 𝜃 ∈ [−1, 0]. For 𝜙 ∈ 𝐶1([0, 1], 𝑅2), define 𝐴∗𝜓 (𝑠) = { { { { { { { { { −𝑑𝜓 (𝑠)𝑑𝑠 , 𝑠 ∈ [0, 1] , ∫0 −1𝜓 (−𝑡) 𝑑𝜂 (𝑡, 0) , 𝑠 = 0 (29)
and a bilinear inner product ⟨𝜓 (𝑠) , 𝜙 (𝜃)⟩ = 𝜓 (0) 𝜙 (0) − ∫0 −1∫ 𝜃 𝜉=0𝜓 (𝜉 − 𝜃) 𝑑𝜂 (𝜃) 𝜙 (𝜉) 𝑑𝜉, (30)
where𝜂(𝜃) = 𝜂(𝜃, 0). Then 𝐴∗and𝐴(0) are adjoint operators. By the discussion of Section 2, we known that±𝑖𝜔0𝜏0 are eigenvalues of𝐴(0). Thus, they are also eigenvalues of 𝐴∗.
Suppose that𝑞∗(𝑠) = 𝐷(1, 𝛼∗)𝑒𝑖𝑠𝜔0𝜏(𝑗)is the eigenvector of
𝐴(0) corresponding to 𝑖𝜏(𝑗)𝜔
0. Then,𝐴(0)𝑞(𝜃) = 𝑖𝜏(𝑗)𝜔0𝑞(𝜃).
From the definition of𝐴(0) and (25), we obtain 𝜏(𝑗)(𝑖𝜔+ 𝛼1 𝛼2𝑒−𝑖𝜔0𝜏𝑗 −𝑟1 𝑖𝜔0− 𝑟2) 𝑞 (0) = (00), (31) which yields 𝑞 (0) = (1, 𝛼)𝑇= (1, 𝑟1 𝑖𝜔0− 𝑟2) 𝑇 . (32)
Similarly, it can be verified that𝑞∗(𝑠) = 𝐷(1, 𝛼∗)𝑒𝑖𝑠𝜔0𝜏(𝑗)is the
eigenvector of𝐴∗corresponding to−𝑖𝜔0𝜏(𝑗), where 𝛼∗= 𝛼1− 𝑖𝜔0
𝑟1 . (33)
Let⟨𝑞∗(𝑠), 𝑞(𝜃)⟩ = 1; that is, ⟨𝑞∗(𝑠) , 𝑞 (𝜃)⟩ = 𝐷 (1, 𝛼∗) (1, 𝛼)𝑇 − ∫0 −1∫ 0 𝜉 𝐷 (1, 𝛼 ∗) 𝑒−𝑖(𝜉−𝜃)𝜔0𝜏(𝑗)𝑑𝜂 (𝜃) (1, 𝛼)𝑇𝑒𝑖𝜉𝜔0𝜏(𝑗)𝑑𝜉 = 𝐷 {1 + 𝛼𝛼∗− ∫0 −1(1, 𝛼 ∗) 𝜃𝑒𝑖𝜃𝜔0𝜏(𝑗)𝑑𝜂 (𝜃) (1, 𝛼)𝑇} = 𝐷 {1 + 𝛼𝛼∗− 𝛼 2𝛼𝜏(𝑗)𝑒−𝑖𝜔0𝜏 (𝑗) } = 1. (34) Thus, we can choose
𝐷 = 1
1 + 𝛼𝛼∗− 𝛼
2𝛼𝜏(𝑗)𝑒𝑖𝜔0𝜏(𝑗) (35)
such that⟨𝑞∗(𝑠), 𝑞(𝜃)⟩ = 1, ⟨𝑞∗(𝑠), 𝑞(𝜃)⟩ = 0.
Using the same notations as in Hassard et al. [18] and Song et al. [19], we first compute the center manifold𝐶0at𝜇 = 0. Let𝑥𝑡be the solution of (21) when𝜇 = 0. Define
𝑧 (𝑡) = ⟨𝑞∗, 𝑥𝑡⟩,
𝑊 (𝑡, 𝜃) = 𝑥𝑡(𝜃) − (𝑥 (𝑡) 𝑞 (𝜃) + 𝑧 (𝑡) 𝑞 (𝜃))
= 𝑥𝑡(𝜃) − 2 Re {𝑧 (𝑡) 𝑞 (𝜃)} .
(36)
On the center manifold𝐶0, we have
𝑊 (𝑡, 𝜃) = 𝑊 (𝑧 (𝑡) , 𝑧 (𝑡) , 𝜃) , (37) where 𝑊 (𝑧, 𝑧, 𝜃) = 𝑊20(𝜃)𝑧 2 2 + 𝑊11(𝜃) 𝑧𝑧 + 𝑊02(𝜃)𝑧22 + 𝑊30(𝜃)𝑧63 + ⋅ ⋅ ⋅ , (38)
where 𝑧 and 𝑧 are local coordinates for center manifold 𝐶0 in the direction of𝑞∗and𝑞∗. Note that𝑊 is real if 𝑥𝑡is real. Here we consider only real solutions. For the solution𝑥𝑡∈ 𝐶0 of (24), since𝜇 = 0, we have ̇𝑧 = 𝑖𝜏(𝑗)𝜔0𝑧 + ⟨𝑞∗(𝜃) , 𝐹 (0, 𝑊 (𝑧, 𝑧, 𝜃) + 2 Re {𝑧𝑞 (𝜃)})⟩ = 𝑖𝜏(𝑗)𝜔0𝑧 + 𝑞∗(0) 𝐹 (0, 𝑊 (𝑧, 𝑧, 0) + 2 Re {𝑧𝑞 (0)}) = 𝑖𝜏(𝑗)𝜔0𝑧 + 𝑞∗(0) 𝐹 0(𝑧, 𝑧) . (39) We rewrite this equation as
̇𝑧 (𝑡) = 𝑖𝜏(𝑗)𝜔 0𝑧 (𝑡) + 𝑔 (𝑧, 𝑧) (40) with 𝑔 (𝑧, 𝑧) = 𝑞∗(0) 𝐹 0(𝑧, 𝑧) = 𝑔20𝑧2 2 + 𝑔11𝑧𝑧 + 𝑔02 𝑧2 2 + 𝑔21 𝑧2𝑧 2 + ⋅ ⋅ ⋅ . (41) By (36), we have𝑥𝑡(𝜃) = (𝑥1𝑡(𝜃), 𝑥2𝑡(𝜃)) = 𝑊(𝑡, 𝜃) + 𝑧𝑞(𝜃) + 𝑧 𝑞(𝜃) and 𝑞(𝜃) = (1, 𝛼)𝑇𝑒𝑖𝜃𝜔0𝜏(𝑗), and then
𝑥1𝑡(0) = 𝑧 + 𝑧 + 𝑊20(1)(0)𝑧2 2 + 𝑊11(1)(0) 𝑧𝑧 + 𝑊02(1)(0)𝑧22 + 𝑜 (|(𝑧, 𝑧)|3) , 𝑥2𝑡(0) = 𝑧𝛼𝑒−𝑖𝜔0𝜏(𝑗)+ 𝑧 𝛼𝑒𝑖𝜔0𝜏(𝑗)+ 𝑊(2) 20 (−1)𝑧 2 2 + 𝑊11(2)(−1) 𝑧𝑧 + 𝑊02(2)(−1)𝑧22 + 𝑜 (|(𝑧, 𝑧)|3) . (42) It follows, together with (23), that
𝑥2𝑡(0) = 𝛼𝑧 + 𝛼 𝑧 + 𝑊20(2)(0)𝑧22 + 𝑊02(2)(0)𝑧22 + ⋅ ⋅ ⋅ , 𝑔 (𝑧, 𝑧) = 𝑞∗(0) 𝐹 0(𝑧, 𝑧) = 𝐷𝜏(𝑗)(1, 𝛼∗) (−𝑥1𝑡(0) 𝑥2𝑡(−1) − 𝜀𝑥 2 1𝑡(0) + h.o.t Σ𝑖!𝑗!1 𝑐𝑖𝑗𝑥2 1𝑡(0) 𝑥𝑗2𝑡(0) + h.o.t ) = 𝐷𝜏(𝑗)(−𝑥 1𝑡(0) 𝑥2𝑡(−1) − 𝜀𝑥21𝑡(0) +𝛼∗∑ 1 𝑖!𝑗!𝑐𝑖𝑗𝑥21𝑡(0) 𝑥2𝑡𝑗 (0) + h.o.t)
= 𝐷𝜏(𝑗){(−𝛼𝑒−𝑖𝜔0𝜏(𝑗)− 𝜀 +𝛼∗ 2! (𝑐20+ 𝑐02𝛼2)) 𝑧2 + ( − 𝛼𝑒−𝑖𝜔0𝜏(𝑗)− 𝛼𝑒𝑖𝜔0𝜏(𝑗)− 2𝜀 +𝛼∗(𝑐 20+𝑐022𝛼𝛼)) 𝑧𝑧 + (−𝛼𝑒𝑖𝜔0𝜏(𝑗)− 𝜀 +𝛼∗𝑐20 2! + 𝛼2𝛼∗𝑐 02 2! ) 𝑧2 + (−𝛼 2𝑒𝑖𝜔0𝜏 (𝑗) 𝑊20(1)(0) −1 2𝑊20(2)(−1) − 𝜀𝑊20(1)(0) + 𝛼∗(1 2𝑐20𝑊20(1)(0) +1 2𝛼𝑐02𝑊20(2)) × 𝑐20𝑊(1) 11 (0) +𝛼𝑐02𝑊(2)11(0) ) 𝑧2𝑧 + ⋅ ⋅ ⋅ } . (43) Comparing the coefficients with (41), we have
𝑔20= 𝐷𝜏(𝑗)(−2𝛼𝑒−𝑖𝜔0𝜏(𝑗)− 2𝜀 + 𝛼∗(𝑐 20+ 𝑐02𝛼2)) , 𝑔11= 𝐷𝜏(𝑗)(−𝛼𝑒−𝑖𝜔0𝜏 (𝑗) − 𝛼𝑒𝑖𝜔0𝜏(𝑗)− 2𝜀 +𝛼∗(𝑐 20+𝑐022𝛼𝛼)) , 𝑔02= 𝐷𝜏(𝑗)(−2𝛼𝑒𝑖𝜔0𝜏(𝑗)− 2𝜀 + 𝛼 (𝑐 20+ 𝛼𝑐02)) , 𝑔21 = −𝛼𝑒𝑖𝜔0𝜏(𝑗)𝑊(1) 20 (0) − 𝑊20(2)(−1) − 2𝜀𝑊20(1)(0) + 𝛼∗(𝑐 20𝑊20(1)(0) + 𝑐02𝛼𝑊20(2)(0)) + 2𝑐20𝑊11(1)(0) + 2𝑐02𝛼𝑊11(2)(0) . (44) In order to determine𝑔21, we need to compute𝑊20(𝜃) and 𝑊11(𝜃). From (28) and (36), we have
̇ 𝑊 = ̇𝑥𝑡− ̇𝑧𝑞 − ̇𝑧 𝑞 ={{ { 𝐴𝑊 − 2𝑅 {𝑞 ∗ (0)𝐹0𝑞 (𝜃)} , 𝜃 ∈ [−1, 0] , 𝐴𝑊 − 2𝑅 {𝑞 ∗ (0)𝐹0𝑞 (𝜃)} + 𝐹0, 𝜃 = 0 ≡ 𝐴𝑊 + 𝐻 (𝑧, 𝑧, 𝜃) , (45) where 𝐻 (𝑧, 𝑧, 𝜃) = 𝐻20(𝜃)𝑧 2 2 + 𝐻11(𝜃) 𝑧𝑧 + 𝐻02(𝜃) 𝑧2 2 + ⋅ ⋅ ⋅ . (46)
Expanding the above series and comparing the correspond-ing coefficients, we obtain
(𝐴 − 2𝑖𝜏(𝑗)𝜔0) 𝑊20(𝜃) = −𝐻20(𝜃) ,
𝐴𝑊11(𝜃) = −𝐻11(𝜃) , . . . . (47) Following (45), we know that for𝜃 ∈ [−1, 0],
𝐻 (𝑧, 𝑧, 𝜃) = −𝑞∗(0)𝐹
0𝑞 (𝜃) − 𝑞∗(0) 𝐹0𝑞(𝜃)
= −𝑔𝑞 (𝜃) − 𝑔𝑞(𝜃).
(48)
Comparing the coefficients with (46), we get 𝐻20(𝜃) = −𝑔20𝑞 (𝜃) − 𝑔02𝑞 (𝜃),
𝐻11(𝜃) = −𝑔11𝑞 (𝜃) − 𝑔11𝑞(𝜃).
(49) Substituting these relations into (47), we obtain
̇ 𝑊20(𝜃) = 2𝑖𝜏(𝑗)𝜔0𝑊20(𝜃) + 𝑔20𝑞 (𝜃) + 𝑔02𝑞(𝜃). (50) Solving𝑊20(𝜃), we obtain 𝑊20(𝜃) =𝑖𝑔20𝑞 (0) 𝜏(𝑗)𝜔 0 𝑒 𝑖𝜏(𝑗)𝜔 0𝜃 +𝑖𝑔02𝑞(0) 3𝜏(𝑗)𝜔 0𝑒 −𝑖𝜏(𝑗)𝜔 0𝜃+ 𝐸 1𝑒2𝑖𝜏 (𝑗)𝜔 0𝜃, (51)
where𝐸1= (𝐸(1)1 , 𝐸1(2)) ∈ 𝑅2is a constant vector. Similarly, we can obtain
𝑊11(𝜃) =−𝑖𝑔𝜏(𝑗)11𝑞 (0)𝜔 0 𝑒 𝑖𝜏(𝑗)𝜔 0𝜃 +𝑖𝑔11𝑞(0) 𝜏(𝑗)𝜔 0 𝑒 −𝑖𝜏(𝑗)𝜔 0𝜃+ 𝐸 2, (52)
where𝐸2= (𝐸(1)2 , 𝐸2(2)) ∈ 𝑅2is also a constant vector. In what follows, we determine the constant vectors𝐸1and 𝐸2. From (47) and the definition of𝐴, we obtain
∫0 −1𝑑𝜂 (𝜃) 𝑊20(𝜃) = 2𝑖𝜏 (𝑗)𝜔 0𝑊20(0) − 𝐻20(0) , (53) ∫0 −1𝑑𝜂 (𝜃) 𝑊11(𝜃) = −𝐻11(𝜃) , (54)
where𝜂(𝜃) = 𝜂(0, 𝜃). From (45) and (46), we have 𝐻20(0) = −𝑔20𝑞 (0) − 𝑔02𝑞(0) + 2𝜏(𝑗)(−2𝛼𝑒 −𝑖𝜔0𝜏(𝑗)− 2𝜀 𝑐20+ 𝑐02𝛼2 ) , (55) 𝐻11(0) = −𝑔11𝑞 (0) − 𝑔11𝑞(0) + 2𝜏(𝑗)(−2𝛼𝑒−𝑖𝜔0𝜏 (𝑗) − 𝛼𝑒𝑖𝜔0𝜏(𝑗)− 2𝜀 𝑐20+ 𝑐02𝛼𝛼 ) . (56)
Substituting (51) and (55) into (53) and noticing that (𝑖𝜏(𝑗)𝜔0𝐼 − ∫0 −1𝑒 𝑖𝜃𝜔0𝜏(𝑗)𝑑𝜂 (𝜃)) 𝑞 (0) = 0, (−𝑖𝜏(𝑗)𝜔0𝐼 − ∫0 −1𝑒 −𝑖𝜃𝜔0𝜏(𝑗)𝑑𝜂 (𝜃)) 𝑞 (0) = 0, (57) we get (2𝑖𝜏(𝑗)𝜔0𝐼 − ∫0 −1𝑒 2𝑖𝜃𝜔0𝜏(𝑗)𝑑𝜂 (𝜃)) 𝐸 1 = 2𝜏(𝑗)(−2𝛼𝑒−𝑖𝜔0𝜏 (𝑗) − 2𝜀 𝑐20+ 𝑐02𝛼2 ) ; (58) that is, (2𝑖𝜔0+ 𝛼1 −𝛼2𝑒−2𝑖𝜔0𝜏 (𝑗) −𝑟1 2𝑖𝜔0 ) 𝐸1= 2 (−2𝛼𝑒 −𝑖𝜔0𝜏(𝑗)− 2𝜀 𝑐20+ 𝑐02𝛼2 ) . (59) It follows that 𝐸(1)1 = 𝐴2 −2𝛼𝑒−𝑖𝜔0𝜏(𝑗)− 2𝜀 −𝛼 2𝑒−2𝑖𝜔0𝜏 (𝑗) 𝑐20+ 𝑐02𝛼2 2𝑖𝜔0 , 𝐸(2)1 = 2 𝐴2𝑖𝜔0+ 𝛼1 −2𝛼𝑒 −𝑖𝜔0𝜏(𝑗)− 2𝜀 −𝑟1 𝑐20+ 𝑐02𝛼2 , (60) where𝐴 =2𝑖𝜔0+𝛼1−𝛼2𝑒−2𝑖𝜔0𝜏(𝑗) −𝑟1 2𝑖𝜔0 .
Similarly, substituting (52) and (56) into (54), we have ( 𝛼1 𝛼2 −𝑟1 −𝑟2) 𝐸2= 2 (−2𝛼𝑒 −𝑖𝜔0𝜏(𝑗)− 𝛼𝑒𝑖𝜔0𝜏(𝑗)− 2𝜀 𝑐20+ 𝑐02𝛼𝛼 ) . (61) Then we obtain 𝐸(1)2 = 2 𝐵−2𝛼𝑒 −𝑖𝜔0𝜏(𝑗)− 𝛼𝑒𝑖𝜔0𝜏(𝑗)− 2𝜀 −𝛼 2 𝑐20+ 𝑐02𝛼𝛼 −𝑟2 , 𝐸(2)2 = 2 𝐵𝛼1 −2𝛼𝑒 −𝑖𝜔0𝜏(𝑗)− 𝛼𝑒𝑖𝜔0𝜏(𝑗)− 2𝜀 −𝑟1 𝑐20+ 𝑐02𝛼𝛼 , (62) where𝐵 = 𝛼1 𝛼2 −𝑟1−𝑟2.
Therefore, all 𝑔𝑖𝑗 in (41) have been expressed in terms of the parameters and the delay given in (2). Substituting expressions of 𝑔02, 𝑔11, 𝑔20, and 𝑔21 into the following relations, 𝐶1(0) = 2𝜔𝑖 0𝜏0(𝑔20𝑔11− 2𝑔11 2−1 3𝑔02 2+𝑔21 2 ) , (63) we obtain 𝐾2= −Re{𝑐1(0)} Re{𝜆(𝜏)}, 𝛽2= 2 Re {𝐶1(0)} , 𝑇2= −Im{𝐶1(0)} + 𝐾2Im{𝜆 (𝜏(𝑗))} 𝜏(𝑗)𝜔 0 . (64)
We follow the idea in Hassard et al. [18] and Song et al. [19], which implies that the direction of the Hopf bifurcation is determined by the sign of 𝛽2, and the stability of the bifurcating periodic solutions is determined by the sign of 𝐾2and𝑇2determines the period of the bifurcating periodic solution. Thus we have the following.
Theorem 4. (1) If 𝐾2> 0 (𝐾2< 0), then the Hopf bifurcation
is supercritical (subcritical) and the bifurcating periodic solu-tions exist for𝜏 > 𝜏(𝑗) (𝜏 < 𝜏(𝑗)).
(2) If𝛽2 < 0 (𝛽2 > 0), then the bifurcating periodic solu-tions are stable (unstable).
(3) If𝑇2 > 0 (𝑇2 < 0), then the periodic of the bifurcating periodic solutions increase (decrease).
4. Conclusions
In the paper, we focused on the effect of the maturation time of the predator in Bazykin [1]. We first discussed the effect of the time𝜏 on the stability of the positive equilibrium of the system (2), and then we investigated the existence of the Hopf bifurcation, the bifurcating direction, and the stability of the bifurcating periodic solutions by the normal form and center manifold. In fact, we can also incorporate other time delays such as capturing time into the mathematical model and look at their dynamics by other methods. In this regard, we can obtain other complicated and interesting results.
