A Modified Leslie–Gower Model Incorporating Beddington–DeAngelis Functional Response, Double Allee Effect and Memory Effect

In this paper, a modified Leslie–Gower predator-prey model with Beddington–DeAngelis functional response and double Allee effect in the growth rate of a predator population is proposed. In order to consider memory effect on the proposed model, we employ the Caputo fractional-order derivative. We investigate the dynamic behaviors of the proposed model for both strong and weak Allee effect cases. The existence, uniqueness, non-negativity, and boundedness of the solution are discussed. Then, we determine the existing condition and local stability analysis of all possible equilibrium points. Necessary conditions for the existence of the Hopf bifurcation driven by the order of the fractional derivative are also determined analytically. Furthermore, by choosing a suitable Lyapunov function, we derive the sufficient conditions to ensure the global asymptotic stability for the predator extinction point for the strong Allee effect case as well as for the prey extinction point and the interior point for the weak Allee effect case. Finally, numerical simulations are shown to confirm the theoretical results and can explore more dynamical behaviors of the system, such as the bi-stability and forward bifurcation
