Periodic solutions of a discrete nonautonomous Lotka-Volterra predator-prey model with time delays. (English) Zbl 1116.92072

Summary: A discrete periodic two-species Lotka-Volterra predator-prey model with time delays is investigated. By using R. E. Gaines and J. L. Mawhin’s [Coincidence degree, and nonlinear differential equations. (1977; Zbl 0339.47031)] continuation theorem of coincidence degree theory, a set of easily verifiable sufficient conditions is derived for the existence of positive periodic solutions of the model.
