Findings
The system can have at most two limit cycles.
Global bifurcation structure is fully characterized.
The analysis advances ecological modeling understanding.
Abstract
In this paper, we complete the global qualitative analysis of a quartic family of planar vector fields corresponding to a rational Holling-type dynamical system which models the dynamics of the populations of predators and their prey in a given ecological or biomedical system. In particular, studying global bifurcations, we prove that such a system can have at most two limit cycles surrounding one singular point.
