摘　　要：讨论了具时滞与分段常数变量的捕食-食饵生态模型的稳定性及Neimark-Sacker分支;通过计算得到连续模型对应的差分模型,基于特征值理论和Schur-Cohn判据得到正平衡态局部渐进稳定的充分条件;以食饵的内禀增长率为分支参数,运用分支理论和中心流形定理分析了Neimark-Sacker分支的存在性与稳定性条件;通过举例和数值模拟验证了理论的正确性。The dynamic relationship between prey and predator has long been and will continue to be a dominant theme in ecology because of its universality. The prey-predator interaction, one of the most fundamental interspecies interactions, was first described mathematically by Lotka and Volterra in two independent works, resulting in what are now called the Lotka- Voherra equations. A predator-prey model based on the logistic equation was initially proposed by Alfred J. Lotka in 1910 to describe autocatalytie reactions. He later developed this model and in 1925 arrived at the Lotka-Volterra equations that we know today. Almost at the same time （1926）, Vito Volterra, an Italian mathematician, independently established the Lotka-Voherra model after analyzing statistical data of fish catches in the Adriatic. The Lotka-Voherra equation is one of the fundamental population models in theoretical biology. Since these early works, prey-predator interactions have been studied systematically. Much of this work has focused on models with continuous time delay as well as their stability, oscillations, Hopf bifurcations and limit cycles, but no attention has been paid to models with piecewise constant arguments and a time delay. In fact, because of environmental factors or predator characteristics, prey are often captured only during certain times of the season. In addition, there is a time delay before hunting because of predator maturation times in practical predator- prey systems. Therefore, it is more realistic to employ the functional response with piecewise constant arguments and a time delay in predator-prey models. In this paper, we discuss the stability and bifurcations of predator-prey systems with piecewise constant arguments and a time delay. First, a discrete model that can equivalently describe the dynamical behavior of the original differential model is deduced. Sufficient conditions for the local asymptotic stability of the steady state are achieved based on an analysis of the eigenvalues and Schur-Cohn criterion.
