INTRODUCTION

A prey-predator model inovlving predator switching is received a lot of attention in literatures. It is well known that in nature there are different factors; such as stage structure, disease, delay, harvesting and switching; effect the dynamical behavior of the model. In addition, the existence of some type of disease divides the population into two classes known as susceptible and infected. Further, since the infected prey is weaker than the susceptible prey therefore catching the infected prey by a predator will be easer than catching the susceptible prey. Consequently most of the prey-predator models assume that the predator prefers to eat the infected prey, however when the infected prey species is rare or in significant defense capability with respect to predation then a predator switches to feed on the susceptible prey species. Number of mathematical models involving predator switching due to various reasons have been studied. Tansky [6]investigated a mathematical model of one predator and two prey system where the predator has switching tendency. Khan [3]studied a prey- predator model with predator switching where the prey species have the group defense capability. Malchow [4]studied an excitable plankton ecosystem model with lysogenic viral infection that incorporates predator switching using a Holling type-III functional response. Keeping the above in view, in this paper, a prey-predator model involving SIS infectious disease in prey species with predator switching is proposed and analyzed. It is assumed that the disease transmitted within the prey population by direct contact and though an external sources. The existence, uniqueness and boundedness of the solution are discussed. The existence and the stability analysis of all possible equilibrium points are studied. Finally, the global dynamics of the model is carried out analytically as well as numerically. The mathematical model: In this section an eco-epidemiological model describing a prey-predator system with switching in the predator is proposed for study, the system involving an SIS epidemic disease in prey population. In the presence of disease, the prey population is divided into two classes: the susceptible individuals S(t) and the infected individuals

represents the density of susceptible individuals at time t while

exponentially with a natural death rate

Now in order to formulate our model, the following

assumptions are adopted: Consider a prey-predator system in which the density of prey at time



is denoted by

N t 

while

the density of predator species at time t is denoted by Y t . Let the following assumptions are adopted: 1. Only the susceptible prey can reproduce logistically, however the infected prey can't reproduce but still has a capability to compete with the other prey individuals for carrying capacity. 2. The susceptible prey becomes infected prey due to contact between both the species as well as external sources for the infection with the contact infection rate constant   0 and an external infection rate

C  0 . However, the infected prey recover constant   0 . P1SY P2 IY The functions

and return to the susceptible prey with a recover rate

mathematically characterize the switching property [34]

Biologically these functions signify the fact that the predatory rate decreases when the population of one prey species becomes rare compared to the population of the other prey species. Since logically the amount of food taken by a predator from one of its prey effected by the amount of food taken from the other prey species, consequently we will use the following modified switching functions, which are give by

instead of the above functions.

According to the above hypothesis the dynamics of a prey-predator model involving an SIS epidemic disease in prey population can be describe by the following set of nonlinear differential equations:

Therefore these functions are

theorem the boundedness of the solution of the system (1) in

Theorem (1): All the solutions of the system (1) are uniformly bounded. Proof: Let W  S  I  Y then we get

Let us, for a moment, focus on the study of equation (9). The steady states of

H V   V V , H V 

are vectors V satisfying

This is a so-called nonlinear eigenvalue. Note that the equation can be alternatively written as

H V   V

with

V  1 ; it then holds that

  V, H V 

(10) . These stationary solutions correspond to fixed directions

that the trajectories of equation (9) may reach asymptotically. Further more equation (10) can be written as

  r  C v1  v2  0 Cv1    d1   v2  0   d 2 v3  0

(11)

Now, we are in a position to discuss in detail the possibility of reaching the origin following fixed directions.

v3  0 v1  0 and v2  0 : in this case, there is a possibility to reach the origin following the I  axis when    d1 with   0 .

Study of predator switching in an eco-epidemiological model with disease in the prey According to these figures, increasing the predator death rate causes extinction in predator species of system (1). 2.5 Discussion and conclusion: In this chapter, we proposed and analyzed an eco-epidemiological model that described the dynamical behavior of a prey-predator model with modify switching function. The model include three non-linear differential equations that describe the dynamics of three different populations namely predator Y susceptible prey S infected prey I. The boundedness of the system (1) has been discussed. The conditions for existence and stability of each equilibrium points are obtained. To understand the effect of varying each parameter, system (1) is solved numerically and then the obtained results can be summarized as follow: 1. Decreasing the intrinsic growth rate r causes extinction in all species and the solution of the system (1) approaches asymptotically to the vanishing equilibrium point E 0 for r  0.2 . However increasing the intrinsic growth rate causes persists of all species and the solution of system (1) approaches asymptotically to the positive equilibrium point

E2 .

2. Decreasing the values of predator switching rate coexistence equilibrium point periodic dynamics in

in the range

P2  0.39

causes destabilizing of the

in the Int .R and the solution of system (1) approaches asymptotically to

Int.R3 .

3. Increasing the values of death rate of predator

causes extinction in predator species and the solution of

E1 for d 2  0.73 K ,  , P1 ,  , e1 , C , e2 , d1

the system (1) approaches asymptotically to the predator free equilibrium point 4. Finally it is observed that, varying each of the values of parameters

has no

effect on the dynamics of the system (1) and the system still approaches asymptotically to coexistence equilibrium point.
