From the introduction: The aim of this paper is to consider instability and global stability properties of the equilibria and the existence and uniqueness of limit cycles of the following model with Holling type II functional response incorporating a constant prey refuge \(m\)\[ \begin{aligned} & \dot x=\alpha x\left(1-\frac xk\right)-\frac{\beta(x-m)y}{1+a(x-m)}\,,\\ & \dot y=-dy + \frac{c\beta(x-m)y}{1+a(x-m)}\,,\end{aligned}\tag{1} \]where \(x, y\) denote prey and predator population respectively at any time \(t,d,k,\alpha,\beta,a,c,m\) are positive constants.
