Abstract. A 2-dimensional predator-prey model with five parameters isinvestigated, adapted from theVolterra-Lotka system by a non-monotonic response function. A description of the variousdomains of structural stability and their bifurcations is given. The bifurcation structure isreduced to four organising centres of codimension 3. Research is initiated on time-periodicperturbations by several examples of strange attractors.

1. Introduction
This paper deals with a particular family of planar vector fields which models the dynamics of the popu-lations of predators and their prey in a given ecosystem. Thesystem is a variation of the classical Volterra-Lotka system [7, 12] given by
x = x(a − λx) − yP (x), y = −δy − µy2 + cyP (x), (1)
where the variablesx andy denote the density of the prey and predator populations respectively, whileP (x) is a non-monotonic response function [1] given byP (x) = mx/(αx2 + βx + 1), where0 ≤ α, 0 <

α are parameters. The coefficienta represents the intrinsic growth rate ofthe prey, whileλ > 0 is the rate of competition or resource limitation of prey. The natural death rate of thepredator is given byδ > 0. The functioncP (x) wherec > 0 is the rate of conversion between prey andpredator. The non-negative coefficientµ is the rate of the competition amongst predators [2]. See [3,5] fora more detailed discussion concerning system (1).
Our goal is to understand the structurally stable dynamics of (1) and in particular the attractors with theirbasins where we have a special interest for multi-stability. We also study the bifurcations between the openregions of the parameter space that concern such dynamics thereby giving a better understanding of thefamily.
We briefly address the modification of this system, where a small parametric forcing is applied in theparameterλ, i.e.,λ = λ0(1+ε sin(2πt)), (as suggested by Rinaldi et al. [11]) whereε < 1 is a perturbationparameter. Our main interest is with large scale strange attractors. For several phase portraits of the Poincarereturn map (or stroboscopic map) see Figure 3.
2. Sketch of results
The investigation concerns the dynamics of (1) in the closedfirst quadrantclos(Q) whereQ = {x >0, y > 0} with boundary∂Q = {x = 0, y ≥ 0}∪ {y = 0, x ≥ 0}, which are both invariant under the flowassociated to system (1). Since limit cycles are hard to detect mathematically, our approach is to reduce,by surgery [8, 9], the structurally stable phase portraits to new portraits without limit cycles. In [3, 5]with help of topological means (Poincare-Hopf Index Theorem, Poincare-Bendixson Theorem [8, 10]) acomplete classification of all Reduced Morse-Smale Portraits is found, which is of great help to understandthe original system (1).
THEOREM 2.1. – (GENERAL PROPERTIES) System(1) has the following properties :
1. (TRAPPING DOMAIN) The domainBp = {(x, y) | 0 ≤ x, 0 ≤ y, x + y ≤ p}, wherep >1/λ
(
(1 − δ)2/(4δ) + 1)
is a trapping domain, meaning that it is invariant for positive time evolutionand also captures all integral curves starting inclos(Q);
2. (NUMBER OF SINGULARITIES) There are two singularities on the boundary∂Q, namely(0, 0) whichis a hyperbolic saddle-point andC = (1/λ, 0), which is(semi-) hyperbolic with{x > 0, y = 0} ⊂W s(C). In Q there can be no more than three singularities and the cases with zero, one, two andthree singularities all occur ;
3. (CLASSIFICATION OF THE REDUCED MORSE-SMALE CASE) Exactly six topological types of Re-duced Morse-Smale vector fields occur, listed in Figure1.
The following theorem is illustrated by Figure 2.
THEOREM 2.2. – (ORGANISING CENTRES) In the parameter spaceR5 = {α, β, µ, δ, λ} consider theprojectionΠ : ∆ × W → ∆, where∆ = {0 < δ, 0 < λ} andW = {α ≥ 0, β > −2
√α, µ ≥ 0}. There
exists a smooth curveC that separates∆ into two open regions∆1 and∆2.For all (δ, λ) ∈ ∆1 the corresponding3-dimensional bifurcation set inW has four organising centres of
codimension3 :
1. One transcritical point(TC3) ;
2. Two nilpotent-focus type points(NFa3
andNFb3) connected by a smooth Hopf curve(H2) and by a
smooth cusp curve(SN2) containingTC3 ;
3. One Bogdanov-Takens point(BT3) connected toNFb3 by a smooth Bogdanov-Takens curve(BT2).
Furthermore, the pointsNFa3 , NFb
3 collide when(δ, λ) approachC and disappear for(δ, λ) ∈ ∆2. Theorganising centresTC3 andBT3 remain.
