Dynamics of a two-species Lotka–Volterra competition system in a polluted environment with pulse toxicant input

In most models of population dynamics in a polluted environment, the emission of toxicant is generally considered to be continuous, but it is often the case that toxicant is emitted in regular pulses. This paper deals with the effects of pulse toxicant input with constant rate on two-species Lotka–Volterra competition system in a polluted environment. The thresholds between persistence and extinction of each population are obtained. Moreover, our results indicate that the release amount of toxicant and the pulse period will affect the fate of each population. Finally, the results are verified through computer simulations.
