Abstract A predator–prey model with a stage structure for the predator, which improves the assumption that each individual predator has the same ability to capture prey, is proposed by Wang et al. [Wang W, Mulone G, Salemi F, Salone V. Permanence and stability of a stage-structured predator–prey model. J Math Anal Appl 2001;262:499–528]. It is assumed that immature individuals and mature individuals of the predator are divided by a fixed age and that immature predators do not have the ability to attack prey. We do economic management behavior for Wang model [Wang et al., 2001] by continuous harvesting on predator and impulsive stocking on prey. Then, a delayed stage-structured Holling type II predator–prey model with impulsive stocking prey and continuous harvesting predator is established. It is also assumed that the predating products of the predator is only to increase its bearing ability. We obtain the sufficient conditions of the global attractivity of predator-extinction boundary periodic solution and the permanence of the system. Our results show that the behavior of impulsive stocking prey plays an important role for the permanence of the system, and provide tactical basis for the biological resource management. Further, the numerical analysis is also inserted to illuminate the dynamics of the system. Ó 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

relationship to sustainable development, has been studied extensively by many authors [13]. Especially, the predator– prey models with harvesting are investigated by many papers [3,9,12,18]. There are many works concerning predator–prey system, and many good results are obtained [5–7,9,16,17,19]. The basic predator–prey model is  0 x1 ðtÞ ¼ x1 ðtÞðr  ax1  bx2 ðtÞÞ; ð1:1Þ x02 ðtÞ ¼ x2 ðtÞðd þ cx1 ðtÞÞ; where x1 ðtÞ and x2 ðtÞ are the densities of the prey population and the predator population at time t, respectively, r > 0 is the intrinsic growth rate of prey, a > 0 is the coefficient of intraspecific competition, b > 0 is the per-capita rate of predation of the predator, d > 0 is the death rate of predator, c > 0 denotes the product of the per-capita rate of predation and the rate of conversing pest into predator.  If rc  da < 0, system (1.1) does not have any positive equilibrium point, and the only boundary equilibrium point ar ; 0 is globally asymptotically stable, which implies that the predator population will go into extinction. If the prey is stocked at a constant rate, system (1.1) can be the following differential equation:  0 x1 ðtÞ ¼ x1 ðtÞðr  ax1  bx2 ðtÞÞ þ l; ð1:2Þ x02 ðtÞ ¼ x2 ðtÞðd þ cx1 ðtÞÞ: It can be easily derived that if l > dðadrcÞ , system (1.2) has a unique globally asymptotically stable positive equilibrium c2   2 d rdcad þlc . This implies that the behavior of stocking prey keeps system (1.2) permanent. While there are few papers ; bcd c [9,14] devoted to investigate the models with impulsive perturbations on prey, but their models did not consider time delay. Stage-structured models have received much attention in recent years. Mathematical analyses for single species models with stage structure were performed by many papers [6–8], Recently, Wang and Chen [13] considered predator–prey models with a stage structure for the predator to analyze the influences of a stage structure for the predator on the dynamics of predator–prey models, but these models without impulsive perturbations ignore the duration time of immature predators. And many good results of impulsive differential equations are obtained in [4,9,11]. The recent works of Wang [15] considered that the preying products of the predator is only to increase its bearing ability and a period to maturity. It can really reflect the nature of the world, For example, the large-scale fowl-run add the feedstuffs to enhance the yield of egg. But they did not take economic management behavior into account. Motivated by these ideals, we consider the following impulsive delay differential equation: 9 8 x1 ðtÞ > x01 ðtÞ ¼ x1 ðtÞða  bx1 ðtÞÞ  b 1þcx x3 ðtÞ; > > > ðtÞ > 1 > = > > x ðtÞ x ðts Þ > 0 ws1 1 1 1 > ðtÞ ¼ kb x ðtÞ  kbe x ðt  s Þ  wx ðtÞ; x t–ns; 1 2 > 2 1þcx1 ðtÞ 3 1þcx1 ðts1 Þ 3 > > > > > > > x ðts Þ 1 1 ; > x3 ðt  s1 Þ  d 3 x3 ðtÞ  Ex3 ðtÞ; < x03 ðtÞ ¼ kbews1 1þcx 1 ðts1 Þ 9 ð1:3Þ Dx1 ðtÞ ¼ l; > > = > > > > Dx2 ðtÞ ¼ 0; t ¼ ns; n ¼ 1; 2 . . . ; > > > > > ; > > Dx ðtÞ ¼ 0; > > 3 : ðu1 ðfÞ; u2 ðfÞ; u3 ðfÞÞ 2 C þ ¼ Cð½s1 ; 0; R3þ Þ; ui ð0Þ > 0; i ¼ 1; 2; 3; where x1 ðtÞ denotes the density of prey at time t, x2 ðtÞ; x3 ðtÞ represent the densities of the immature individual predator and mature individual predator at time t, respectively. s1 represents a constant time to maturity, a > 0 is the intrinsic growth rate of prey, b > 0 is the coefficient of intraspecific competition, b is the capture rate of mature predator, and bx1 ðtÞ ðc > 0Þ is the Holling type II functional response. k is the rate of conversion of nutrients into the reproduction 1þcx1 ðtÞ rate of the mature predator, w is the death rate of immature predator. d 3 is the death rate of mature predator. It is also assumed that immature individuals and mature individuals are divided by age s1 and that immature individual predators do not feed on prey and do not have the ability to reproduce. This seems reasonable for a number of mammals where immature predators are raised by their parents and their reproduction rate and attacking rate for prey can be neglected. 0 < E < 1 is the effect of continuous harvesting predator, Dx1 ðtÞ ¼ x1 ðtþ Þ  x1 ðtÞ, l P 0 is the stocking amount of prey at t ¼ ns; n 2 Z þ and Z þ ¼ f1; 2; . . .g, s is the period of the impulsive stocking of the prey. The purpose of this paper is to prove that system (1.3) has a predator-extinction periodic solution. Further, it is globally attractive. While due to the stocking of prey, all the mature predator population would not go into extinction for the continuous harvesting of mature predator population, that is, system (1.3) is permanent. Because the first and third equations of (1.3) do not contain x2 ðtÞ, we can simplify model (1.3) and restrict our attention to the following model:

2. Some important lemmas The solution of (1.3), denoted by xðtÞ ¼ ðx1 ðtÞ; x2 ðtÞ; x3 ðtÞÞT , is a piecewise continuous function x : Rþ ! R3þ , xðtÞ is continuous on ðns; ðn þ 1Þs, n 2 Z þ and xðnsþ Þ ¼ limt!nsþ xðtÞ exists. Obviously the global existence and uniqueness of solutions of (1.3) is guaranteed by the smoothness properties of f, which denotes the mapping defined by the right-side of system (1.3) (see [1,2]). For continuity of initial conditions, we require Z 0 u1 ðsÞ u2 ð0Þ ¼ kbews ð2:1Þ u ðsÞds; 1 þ cu1 ðsÞ 3 s1 Before we have the main results, we need to give some lemmas which will be used next. Lemma 2.1. Let ðu1 ðtÞ; u2 ðtÞ; u3 ðtÞÞ > 0 for s1 < t < 0. Then any solution of system (1.3) is strictly positive. Proof. Firstly, by uniqueness of solutions of system (1.3) and x01 ðtÞ ¼ 0 whenever x1 ðtÞ ¼ 0, t–ns, and x1 ðnsþ Þ ¼ x1 ðnsÞ þ l; l P 0. It is easy to see that x1 ðtÞ > 0 for all t > 0. Secondly, we show that x3 ðtÞ > 0 for all t > 0. Notice x3 ðtÞ > 0, hence if there exists t0 such that x3 ðt0 Þ ¼ 0, then t0 > 0. Assume that t0 is the first such time that x3 ðtÞ ¼ 0, that is, t0 ¼ infft > 0 : x3 ðtÞ ¼ 0g; then x1 ðt0 s1 Þ x03 ðt0 Þ ¼ kbews1 1þcx x3 ðt0  s1 Þ > 0. Hence for sufficiently small e > 0, x03 ðt0  eÞ > 0. But by the definition of 1 ðt0 s1 Þ 0 t0 , x3 ðt0  eÞ 6 0. This contradiction shows that x3 ðtÞ > 0 for all t > 0. Finally we consider the following equation: s0 ðtÞ ¼ kbews1

x1 ðt  s1 Þ x3 ðt  s1 Þ  wsðtÞ; 1 þ cx1 ðt  s1 Þ

ð2:2Þ

and comparing with (1.3), we note that if sðtÞ is the solution of (2.2) and if x1 ðtÞ can solve (1.3), then x2 ðtÞ > sðtÞ on 0 < t < s1 . Solving (2.2) gives  Z t x1 ðu  s1 Þ wt wðus1 Þ sðtÞ ¼ e x2 ð0Þ  kbe x3 ðu  s1 Þdu ; 1 þ cx1 ðu  s1 Þ 0 From (2.1), one can obtain Z 0 kbews sðs1 Þ ¼ ews1

x1 ðu  s1 Þ x3 ðu  s1 Þdu ; 1 þ cx1 ðu  s1 Þ 0 s1 R0 u1 ðsÞ By making transformation and x1 ðtÞ ¼ u1 ðtÞ, x3 ðtÞ ¼ u3 ðtÞ; t 2 ½s1 ; 0, we know that s1 kbews 1þcu u3 ðsÞds is equiv1 ðsÞ R s1 wðus1 Þ x1 ðus1 Þ x ðu  s Þdu. Thus we obtain sðs Þ ¼ 0. Hence x ðtÞ > 0, Since sðtÞ is strictly decreasing, alent to 0 kbe 1 1 2 1þcx1 ðus1 Þ 3 then x2 ðtÞ > sðtÞ > 0 for t 2 ð0; s1 Þ. So x2 ðtÞ > 0 on 0 6 t 6 s1 . By induction and similar method to the proof of Theorem 1 [10], we can show that x2 ðtÞ > 0 for all t P 0. This completes the proof. h u1 ðsÞ u ðsÞds  1 þ cu1 ðsÞ 3

Now, we show that all solutions of (1.3) are uniformly ultimately bounded. Lemma 2.2. There exists a constant M > 0 such that x1 ðtÞ 6 Mk ; x2 ðtÞ 6 M; x3 ðtÞ 6 M for each solution ðx1 ðtÞ; x2 ðtÞ; x3 ðtÞÞ of (1.3) with all t large enough. Proof. Define V ðtÞ ¼ kx1 ðtÞ þ x2 ðtÞ þ x3 ðtÞ. And because of w < d 3 þ E, then t–ns, we have Dþ V ðtÞ þ wV ðtÞ ¼ kðw þ aÞx1  kbx21 ðtÞ þ ðw  d 3  EÞx3 ðtÞ 6 M 0 ;

where M 0 ¼ kðaþwÞ , when t ¼ ns, V ðnsþ Þ ¼ V ðnsÞ þ l. By Lemma 2.2 (which can be seen in [1, p. 23]), for 4b t 2 ðns; ðn þ 1Þs we have V ðtÞ 6 V ð0Þ expðdtÞ þ

l expðdsÞ >0 So V ðtÞ is uniformly ultimately bounded. Hence, by the definition of V ðtÞ, there exists a constant M ¼ Md0 þ expðdsÞ1 M such that x1 ðtÞ 6 k ; x2 ðtÞ 6 M; x3 ðtÞ 6 M for t large enough. The proof is complete. h

we assume that a1 ; a2 ; s > 0; xðtÞ > 0 for s 6 t 6 0. Lemma 2.3 [8]. For system (2.3), assume that a1 < a2 . Then limt!1 xðtÞ ¼ 0: Lemma 2.4 [14]. Considering the following impulsive system:  0 v ðtÞ ¼ vðtÞða  bvðtÞÞ; t–ns; vðnsþ Þ ¼ vðnsÞ þ l; t ¼ ns; n ¼ 1; 2 . . . ; where

Let ðx1 ðtÞ; x3 ðtÞÞ be the solution of system (1.4) with initial conditions (1.5) and x3 ðfÞ ¼ u3 ðfÞðf 2 ½s1 ; 0Þ, yðtÞ is the solution of system (3.4) with initial conditions yðfÞ ¼ u3 ðfÞ ðf 2 ½s1 ; 0Þ.

Incorporating into the positivity of x3 ðtÞ, we know that limt!1 x3 ðtÞ ¼ 0. Therefore, for any e1 > 0 (sufficiently small), there exists an integer k 3 ðk 3 s > k 2 s þ s1 Þ such that x3 ðtÞ < e1 for all t > k 3 s.

Remark 3.2. From Theorem 3.1, it is clear that the excess harvesting causes the extinction of predator population, and breaches the sustainable development of biological resources. The next work is to investigate the permanence of system (1.3). Before starting our theorem, we give the definition of permanence of system (1.3). Definition 3.3. System (1.3) is said to be permanent if there are constants m; M > 0 (independent of initial value) and a finite time T 0 such that for all solutions ðx1 ðtÞ; x2 ðtÞ; x3 ðtÞÞ with all initial values x1 ðtÞ > 0; x2 ð0þ Þ > 0; x3 ð0þ Þ > 0, m 6 x1 ðtÞ < M=k; m 6 x2 ðtÞ 6 M; m 6 x3 ðtÞ 6 M holds for all t P T 0 .

then we have V 0 ðtÞ > x3 ðtÞðkbews1 r  d 3  EÞ for all t > t1 . Set xm3 ¼ mint2½t1 ;t1 þs1  x3 ðtÞ; we will show that x3 ðtÞ P xm3 for all t P t1 . Suppose on the contrary, there is a T 0 > 0 such that x3 ðtÞ P xm3 for t1 6 t 6 t1 þ s1 þ T 0 ; x3 ðt1 þ s1 þ T 0 Þ ¼ xm3 and x03 ðt1 þ s1 þ T 0 Þ < 0. Hence, the first equation of system (2.5) implies that x03 ðt1 þ s1 þ T 0 Þ ¼ kbews1

P ðkbews1 r  d 3  EÞxm3 > 0; This is a contradiction. Thus, x3 ðtÞ P xm3 for all t > t1 . As a consequence, then V0 ðtÞ > xm3 ðkbews1 r d 3  EÞ > 0 for all M . Hence, the claim is t > t1 . This implies that as t ! 1, V ðtÞ ! 1. It is a contradiction to V ðtÞ 6 M 1 þ ks1 bews1 1þcM complete. By the claim, we are left to consider two cases. First, x3 ðtÞ P x3 for all t large enough. Second, x3 ðtÞ oscillates about x3 for t large enough. Define    x q ¼ min 3 ; q1 ; ð3:12Þ 2 where q1 ¼ x3 eðd 3 þEÞs1 . We hope to show that x3 ðtÞ P q for all t large enough. The conclusion is evident in the first case. For the second case, let t > 0 and n > 0 satisfy x3 ðt Þ ¼ x3 ðt þ nÞ ¼ x3 and x3 ðtÞ < x3 for all t < t < t þ n, where t is sufficiently large such that x3 ðtÞ > r for t < t < t þ n, x3 ðtÞ is uniformly continuous. The positive solutions of (2.5) are ultimately bounded and x3 ðtÞ is not affected by impulses. Hence, there is a T (0 < t < s1 and T is dependent of the choice x of t Þ such that x3 ðt Þ > 33 for t < t < t þ T . If n < T , there is nothing to prove. Let us consider the case T < n < s1 .

Since x03 ðtÞ > ðd 3 þ EÞx3 ðtÞ and x3 ðt Þ ¼ x3 , it is clear that x3 ðtÞ P q1 for t 2 ½t ; t þ s1 . Then, proceeding exactly as the proof for the above claim, we see that x3 ðtÞ P q1 for t 2 ½t þ s1 ; t þ n. Because the kind of interval t 2 ½t ; t þ n is chosen in an arbitrary way (we only need t to be large), we concluded x3 ðtÞ P q for all large t. In the second case, in view of the above discussion, the choice of q is independent of the positive solution, and we proved that any positive solution of (2.5) satisfies x3 ðtÞ P q for all sufficiently large t. This completes the proof of the theorem. h Theorem 3.5. Suppose E < d 3 þ kbews1

Remark 3.6. From Theorem 3.5, we know that the reasonable harvesting can prevent the predator population from extinction, that is, the behavior of reasonable harvesting can bring the permanence of the exploitative predator–prey system.

4. Numerical analysis and discussion In this paper, we introduce a time delay and pulse into the predator–prey system with stage structure for predator. According to the fact of biological resource management, we analyze that the predator-extinction periodic solution of system (1.3) is globally attractive. To investigate the effect of the impulsive stocking on prey and continuous harvesting on predator by numerical analysis, we assume that d 3 ¼ 0:2; a ¼ 1; b ¼ 1; c ¼ 1; E ¼ 0:8; s1 ¼ 0; l ¼ 0:1; b ¼ 1; k ¼ 0:9; x1 ð0Þ ¼ 1:1; x3 ð0Þ ¼ 1:1. It is obvious that the parameters satisfy the condition of Theorem 3.1. Then the predatorextinction periodic solution is global attractivity (see Fig.1), we also assume that d 3 ¼ 0:2; a ¼ 2; b ¼ 1; c ¼ 1; s1 ¼ 0; E ¼ 0:8; b ¼ 1; l ¼ 0:1; k ¼ 0:1; x1 ð0Þ ¼ 0:5; x3 ð0Þ ¼ 0:5, it is clear that the parameters satisfy the condition of Theorem 3.1, then the predator-extinction periodic solution is globally attractive (see Fig. 2), this implies that the excess harvesting may cause the extinction of predator population, and lose the merits of exploitative predator population. Finally, we assume that d 3 ¼ 0:2; a ¼ 1; b ¼ 1; c ¼ 1; E ¼ 0:3; l ¼ 0:5; b ¼ 1; s1 ¼ 0; k ¼ 0:9; x1 ð0Þ ¼ 0:1:1; x3 ð0Þ ¼ 1:1, it is obvious that the parameters satisfy Theorem 3.5, then system (1.4) is permanence (see Fig. 3), it illuminates that reasonable harvesting can ensure the sustainable development of biological resources. From Theorems 3.1 and 3.5, we can easily guess that there must exist a threshold l . If l < l , the predator-extinction periodic solution ð x1g ðtÞ; 0; 0Þ of (1.3) is globally attractive. If l > l , system (1.3) is permanent, or from Theorems 3.1 and 3.5, we can also guess that there must exist a threshold E . If E > E , the pest-extinction periodic solution ð x1g ðtÞ; 0; 0Þ of (1.3) is globally attractive. If E < E , system (1.3) is permanent. The results show that the behavior of impulsive stocking on prey plays an important role for the permanence of system (1.3), and provide tactical basis for the biological resource management. But there is an interesting problem: What is the optimal harvesting policy of system (1.3)? We will continue to study these problems in the future.
