Turing patterns in a Leslie-Gower predator prey model (2302.03449v1)

Abstract: A reaction-diffusion Leslie-Gower predator-prey model, incorporating the fear effect and prey refuge, with Beddington-DeAngelis functional response, is introduced. A qualitative analysis of the solutions of the model and the stability analysis of the coexistence equilibrium, are performed. Sufficient conditions guaranteeing the occurrence of Turing instability have been determined either in the case of self-diffusion or in the case of cross-diffusion. Different types of Turing patterns, representing a spatial redistribution of population in the environment, emerge for different values of the model parameters.
