We consider two-dimensional predator-prey systems with Beddington-DeAngelis-type functional response on periodic time scales. For this special case, we try to find the necessary and sufficient conditions for the considered system when it has at least one w-periodic solution. This study is mainly based on continuation theorem in coincidence degree theory and will also give beneficial results for continuous and discrete cases. Especially, for the continuous case, by using the study of Cui and Takeuchi (J. Math. Anal. Appl. 317:464-474, 2006), to obtain the globally attractive w-periodic solution of the given system, an inequality is given as a necessary and sufficient condition. Additionally, for the continuous case in this study, the open problem given in the discussion part of the study of Fan and Kuang (J. Math. Anal. Appl. 295:15-39, 2004) is solved.
Calculus for dynamic equations on time scales, which offers a unification of discrete and continuous systems, is a recently developed theory. Our aim is to investigate Constantin's inequality on time scales that is an important tool used in determining some properties of various dynamic equations such as global existence, uniqueness and stability. In this paper, Constantin's inequality is investigated in particular for nabla and diamond-alpha derivatives.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
