Dynamics and optimal harvesting of prey-predator fishery models in the presence of a toxicant using pontryagin maximum principle

In this thesis, several harvested fishery models using various types of harvesting strategies including the common harvesting, independent harvesting and nonlinear Michaelis-Menten harvesting functions are presented and analyzed. Besides that, most of the models are taking the existence of a toxi...
