Abstract:
A characteristic feature of living organisms is their response to the environment in search for food or reproduction opportunities. This paper is devoted to the investigation of the pattern formation of the Holling-Tanner predator–prey model with predator-taxis. We first summarise the qualitative properties of the model where a threshold for the appearance of pattern formation is specified. Then we design and analyse a coupled nonstandard finite difference and finite volume scheme for the proposed model. Numerical simulations are provided to support theoretical findings.
