Abstract:
      In this work, we consider some dynamical properties and specific contactbifurcations of a discrete-time predator-prey system having inverseswith vanishing denominator. The dynamics is investigated by usingconcepts of focal points, prefocal curves and bifurcation theory.The system undergoes flip bifurcation and Neimark-Sacker bifurcation.Numerical simulations are presented not only to illustrate our resultswith the theoretical analysis, but also to confirm further the complexityof the dynamical behaviors as extinction, persistence and permanence.
