Pattern formation in a ratio-dependent predator-prey model with cross-diffusion

作者:

Highlights:

• Investigate the effect of the cross-diffusion on the patterns of a ratio-dependent predator-prey model.

• Find that the cross-diffusion has the important influence on the pattern formation.

• Theoretically study the stability of patterns driven by cross-diffusion using the weakly nonlinear analysis method.

• Numerically investigate the spot, stripe and mixed spot-stripe patterns induced by the cross-diffusion.
