Dynamical study of fractional order Leslie-Gower model of predator-prey with fear, Allee effect, and inter-species rivalry

Employing an improved Leslie-Gower model, the Allee impact on the predator population and the fear influence on the prey population, a mathematical model of the interaction involving two populations, prey and predator, has been explored in the current work. The influence of the memory effect on the evolving behaviour of the model is integrated using a well-known fractional operator known as the Caputo fractional derivative of order (0, 1]. We were inspired to do this study because further research is desired to fully comprehend the dynamics of the Allee impact, fear, and Caputo fractional order. The innovative aspect of the current work is the consideration of the Caputo fractional derivative, which enhances the consistency domain of the system. To support the model's biological resilience and accuracy, the existence, uniqueness, positivity, and boundedness of the solution are provided. On the origin, axial, and interior, four distinct types of equilibrium points are distinguished along with the prerequisites for their existence. We additionally stated about the Hopf bifurcation of our proposed model at the interior equilibrium point in terms of fractional order and the fear influence as the bifurcation factors. To illustrate how various biological characteristics affect the dynamics of the solutions, numerical simulations are offered.
