Abstract

In this work, we study the dynamical behaviors of fractional-order Lotka–Volterra predator–prey system and its discretized counterpart. It is shown that the discretized system exhibits much richer dynamical behaviors than its corresponding fractional-order form; in the discretized system, many types of bifurcations (transcritical, flip, Neimark–Sacker) and chaos are obtained however the dynamics of fractional-order counterpart is included only stable (unstable) equilibria. Numerical simulations are used to verify the correctness of the analytical results.
