Stable periodic traveling waves for a predator‐prey model with non-constant death rate and delay

In this paper we will consider a predator–prey model with a non‐constant death rate and distributed delay, described by a partial integro‐differential system. The main goal of this work is to prove that the partial integro‐differential system has periodic orbitally asymptotically stable solutions in the form of periodic traveling waves; i.e. N(x, t)= N(σt ‐ μ · x), P(x, t)= P(σt ‐ μ · x), where s >0 is the angular frequency and μ is the vector number of the plane wave, which propagates in the direction of the vector μ with speed c = σ/∥μ∥; and N(x, t) and P(x, t) are the spatial population densities of the prey and the predator species, respectively. In order to achieve our goal we will use singular perturbation’s techniques.
