Kywords- Raction-Diffusion Equations, Asymptotical Stability, Travling Wav fronts. INTRODUCTION Dlay ordinary diffrntial quations (also calld by rtardd functional diffrntial quations) hav bn xtnsivly studid by many authors, such as [], [3], [4], [7], [0] and so on. Rcntly, a two-spcis prdator-pry systm dscribd by a dlayd ordinary diffrntial quation was considrd in [9], whr th dlay mans th stag for th pry population. W rmark that th abov mntiond modls did not considr th ffct of diffusion on th stability of th quilibrium and travling wav fronts. Howvr, th spci's diffusion is a natural tndncy to mov into aras of smallr population dnsity. So w follow th normal tchniqu to handl with th diffusion (s [3], [5], [6] and []) to giv th following dlayd raction-diffusion quations u DΔ u = αu( xt, ) γu( xt, ) α u( xt, τ), t u DΔ u = βu( xt, ) au ( xtvxt, ) (, ) + α u( xt, τ) hu( xt, ), t v D Δ 3 v = v( x, t)( r + au( x, t) bv( x, t)), x Ω, t > 0, t u u v = = = 0, x Ω, t > 0, n n n u( x, t) = ϕ( x, t), u( x, t) = ϕ( x, t), v( x, t) = ϕ3( x, t), x Ω, t [ τ,0], ()
Z. G 763 N whr Ω R is opn and boundd with smooth boundary Ω, / n is diffrntiation in th dirction of th outward unit normal, u( x, t), u( x, t) rprsnt th immatur and matur pry population dnsitis at x -spac and t -tim, rspctivly; vxt (, ) rprsnts th dnsity of prdator population at x -spac and t -tim; a is th transformation cofficint of matur prdator population; rprsnts th transformation of immatur to matur; is th birth rat of th immatur pry population; h 0 is th harvsting ffort of th pry spcis; β > 0 rprsnts th dath and ovrcrowding rat of th matur pry population. And th constants r > 0, a > 0, b> 0. And th constant Di ( i =,,3) is positiv, and th initial functions ϕ( x,0), ϕ 3( x,0) ar continuous in Ω and ϕ ( x, t) is continuous in Ω [ τ,0]. In this papr, w aim to study th dynamical bhaviors of th systm (). Not that u ( x, t ) and vxt (, ) of th systm () ar indpndnt of u ( x, t), so w obtain th dynamical bhaviors of th systm () by studying th following systm u DΔ u = βu( xt, ) au ( xtu, ) ( xt, ) + α u( xt, τ) hu( xt, ), t u D3Δ u = u( x, t)( r+ au( x, t) bu( x, t)), x Ω, t > 0, t u u = = 0, x Ω, t > 0, n n u( x, t) = ϕ( x, t), u( x,0) = ϕ( x,0), x Ω, t [ τ,0], whr u( x, t), u( x, t) and ϕ( x, t), ϕ ( x, t) dnot u ( x, t), v( x, t) and ϕ( x, t), ϕ 3( x, t) of th systm (), rspctivly. For this singl spci modl of [0], S.A. Gourly and Y. Kuang pointd out that th xistnc of wav front solutions is an opn qustion. Motivatd by th rsults of [0], w study th xistnc of travling wav fronts of th two-spcis dlayd systm (). Th ky ida is to coupl th uniformly approximatd approach introducd by J. Canosa in [] with th mthod of uppr and lowr solutions. Th mthod to construct th uppr and lowr solutions of th systm () is drivd from th ida of []. Th rmaining parts of th papr ar organizd as follows. In sction, w study th locally asymptotical stability of th constant quilibrium and th xistnc of travling wav fronts of th systm (). Finally, w draw a conclusion.. DYNAMICAL BEHAVIORS OF THE SYTEM () () It is asy to chck that th systm () has only thr nonngativ constant γτ solutions: E(0,0), E(( α h) / β,0) and th positiv quilibrium E3( c, c) as α h β r, > whr b ( α h ) + a r ( α ), h β c = r aa + bβ c = aa + bβ. Using th linarization tchniqu ([8] or []) and omitting th dtaild drivation ( []), w hav

Th quilibrium E (0,0) of th systm () is unstabl; if a α h β r, thn th quilibrium E (( γτ α h ) / β,0) is unstabl; if a α h> β r, th positiv quilibrium E3( c, c) is locally asymptotically stabl. Nxt, w study th xistnc of travling wav solution for th infinit spatial x + ) (,. To sk a pair of travling wav fronts of th systm (), w st u( x, t) = φ( s) and u( x, t) = φ( s), whr s = x+ ct and c is th wav spd. Substituting φ () s and φ () s into th systm (), w hav Dφ" cφ' βφ hφ aφ( s) φ( s) + α φ( s cτ) = 0, D3φ" cφ' rφ+ aφφ bφ= 0, φ( ) = 0, φ( + ) = c, φ( ) = 0, φ( + ) = c. Lt θ = /c, for th larg valus of th wav spd, thn θ is a small paramtr. Dnot η = θs = s/ c, undr th transformation φi( s) = ψi( η) ( i =,), thn th systm (3) bcoms θdψ" ψ' βψ aψψ + α ψ( η τ) hψ = 0, θd3ψ" ψ' rψ + aψψ bψ = 0, ψ( ) = 0, ψ( + ) = c, ψ( ) = 0, ψ( + ) = c. Lt ψ ηθ ψ0 θψ ψ ηθ ψ0 θψ (, ) = + +, (, ) = + +, and substitut into (4) and group th sam powrs of θ, dnot ψ ( ) i0 η by ψ i ( η ) ( i =,), rspctivly, thn w hav (3) (4) ψ' = βψ aψψ + α ψ( η τ) hψ, ψ' = rψ + aψψ bψ, ψ( ) = 0, ψ( + ) = c, ψ( ) = 0, ψ( + ) = c. (5) Thorm. If a α h> β r, thn th systm (5) has at last on non-dcrasing T positiv solution ψ = ( ψ ( η), ψ ( η)) C ( R, R ). Proof. To prov th thorm, w nd to chck that a quasi-monoton condition (s [7] or []) holds and show that thr xists a pair of uppr and lowr solutions ( ψ ( η), ψ ( η )) T and ( ψ ( η), ψ ( η )) T. To do that, w dfin th functional f ( ψ) = ( f ( ψ), f ( ψ)) T c c c by fc ( ψ) = βψ (0) aψ(0) ψ(0) + α ψ( τ) hψ(0), fc( ψ) = rψ(0) + aψ(0) ψ(0) bψ(0). (6)
Z. G 765 Ltting δ = ( δ, δ) T, for arbitrary φψ, C([ τ,0]; R ) satisfying 0 ψ ( η) φ( η), w asily obtain f ( φ) f ( ψ) + δ( φ(0) ψ(0)) ( δi Β)( φ(0) ψ(0)) 0, (7) c c whr I is a idntity matrix, δ α + βc and δ r + bc. B diag( c a c hc, r bc ), = β + + + Nxt, w show that thr xists a pair of uppr and lowr solutions. To do that, w introduc th following st Dfin whr ψ () ( η) ψ is picwis continuous and nondcrasing in R Γ= ψ = T ψ () lim 0, lim ( ( η) ψ = ψ = c, c) η η + λη λη c c, η 0,, η 0, ψ ( η) = ψ ( η) = c c c, η > 0, c, η > 0,. (8) λ > α. (9) ψ ( η) And it is asy to chck that ψ = Γ. Nxt, w chck that ψ is a pair of uppr ψ ( η) solutions to (5). To do that, w hav two cass Cas i: η > 0. Thn, w hav ( λ + r) c rc r a b 4 ψ '( η) + ψ ( η) ψ ( η) ψ ( η) + ψ ( η) > 0.

Th proof of th thorm is compltd. (7)
