  This paper is concerned with the dynamics of a delayed stochastic one-predator two-prey population model in a polluted environment. We show that there exists a unique positive solution that is permanent in time average under certain conditions. Moreover, the global attractively of system is studied.

Introduction</title><p>With the rapid development of economy, environmental pollution has gradually become the major social problem today. With a growing number of toxicant and contaminants entering into the ecosystem, the quality of our living environment has declined. Then many species have been extinct, and some of them are on the edge of extinction. Therefore, controlling environment pollution has become a major topic in many countries, which draws researchers to investigate the influence of environment pollution.</p><p>In the 1980s, Hallam et al. [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.95699-ref1">1</xref>] [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.95699-ref2">2</xref>] [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.95699-ref3">3</xref>] firstly proposed the deterministic models to study the impact of environment toxicant on the survival of biological population. Their studies have provided useful bases about protecting species for us. However, population system is often affected by environmental noise, and there are many scholars who have studied the dynamics of stochastic models with toxicant [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.95699-ref4">4</xref>] [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.95699-ref5">5</xref>] [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.95699-ref6">6</xref>] [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.95699-ref7">7</xref>] .</p><p>On the other hand, more realistic models of population interactions should take the effects of time delay into account [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.95699-ref8">8</xref>] [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.95699-ref9">9</xref>] . Further, in the natural world, it is a common phenomenon that a predator feeds on some competing preys [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.95699-ref10">10</xref>] [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.95699-ref11">11</xref>] [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.95699-ref12">12</xref>] . However, there is little research on the delayed stochastic one-predator two-prey model in a polluted environment. Thus we consider a stochastic delayed one-predator two-prey model with toxicant input in this article.</p><p>The rest is organized as follows. In Section 2, we show some notations and introduce a stochastic delayed one-predator two-prey model in polluted environment. In Section 3, we show that the system (SM) has a unique global positive solution. In Section 4, we give the main theorems and their proof. In Section 5, the attractively global system is investigated. In Section 6, we present numerical simulations to illustrate our mathematical findings.</p></sec><sec id="s2"><title>2. The Model and Notations</title><p>In this section, we will give some notations on stochastic one-predator-two-prey system. The stochastic predator-prey system in a polluted environment takes the following form:</p><p>{ d x 1 ( t ) = x 1 ( t ) [ r 1 − a 1 C 1 ( t ) − c 11 x 1 ( t ) − c 12 x 2 ( t ) ] d t , d x 2 ( t ) = x 2 ( t ) [ − r 2 − a 2 C 2 ( t ) + c 21 x 1 ( t ) − c 22 x 2 ( t ) ] d t , d C 1 ( t ) = [ k 1 C e ( t ) − ( g 1 + m 1 ) C 1 ( t ) ] d t , d C 2 ( t ) = [ k 1 C e ( t ) − ( g 2 + m 2 ) C 2 ( t ) ] d t , d C e ( t ) = [ − h C e ( t ) + u ( t ) ] d t . (2.1)</p><p>The above model does not incorporate the effect of time delay, but for a long time, it has been recognized that delays can have a complex effect on the dynamics of a system [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.95699-ref9">9</xref>] [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.95699-ref13">13</xref>] . In the same time, the natural growth of many populations is inevitably affected by many random disturbances. Considering the effects of random disturbances, we assume the growth rate of prey and the death rate of predator are perturbed with</p><p>r i → r i + β i B i ( t ) ,   i = 1 , 2 , 3.</p><p>where B i ( t ) ( i = 1 , 2 , 3 ) is mutually independent one-dimensional standard Brownian motions with B i ( 0 ) = 0 and β i &gt; 0 ( i = 1 , 2 , 3 ) being the intensities of white noises. Stochastic version corresponding to deterministic system with time delays can be rewritten as:</p><p>{ d x 1 ( t ) = x 1 ( t ) [ r 1 − a 1 C 1 ( t ) − c 11 x 1 ( t ) − c 12 x 2 ( t − τ ) ] d t + β 1 x 1 ( t ) d B 1 ( t ) , d x 2 ( t ) = x 2 ( t ) [ − r 2 − a 2 C 2 ( t ) + c 21 x 1 ( t − τ ) − c 22 x 2 ( t ) ] d t + β 2 x 2 ( t ) d B 2 ( t ) , d C 1 ( t ) = [ k 1 C e ( t ) − ( g 1 + m 1 ) C 1 ( t ) ] d t , d C 2 ( t ) = [ k 1 C e ( t ) − ( g 2 + m 2 ) C 2 ( t ) ] d t , d C e ( t ) = [ − h C e ( t ) + u ( t ) ] d t . (2.2)</p><p>In past few decades, delay population systems with one predator and two competing preys have received great attention and have been investigated widely. However, as far as the authors concerned, no one has yet explored the predator-prey system with time delays and toxicant inputs in the same time. Therefore, on the basis of article [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.95699-ref14">14</xref>] , we establish the following delayed stochastic one-predator two-prey model in a polluted environment:</p><p>{ d x 1 ( t ) = x 1 ( t ) [ r 1 − a 1 C 0 ( t ) − c 11 x 1 ( t ) − c 12 x 2 ( t − τ 12 ) − c 13 x 3 ( t − τ 13 ) ] d t + β 1 x 1 ( t ) d B 1 ( t ) , d x 2 ( t ) = x 2 ( t ) [ r 2 − a 2 C 0 ( t ) − c 21 x 1 ( t − τ 21 ) − c 22 x 2 ( t ) − c 23 x 3 ( t − τ 23 ) ] d t + β 2 x 2 ( t ) d B 2 ( t ) , d x 3 ( t ) = x 3 ( t ) [ − r 3 − a 3 C 0 ( t ) + c 31 x 1 ( t − τ 31 ) + c 32 x 2 ( t − τ 32 ) − c 33 x 3 ( t ) ] d t + β 3 x 3 ( t ) d B 3 ( t ) , d C 0 ( t ) = [ k 1 C e ( t ) + ρ 1 θ β / k 1 − ( g 1 + m 1 ) C 0 ( t ) ] d t , d C e ( t ) = [ − h C e ( t ) + u ( t ) ] d t .

C 0 ( t ) and C e ( t ) denote the concentrations of the toxicant in the organism of species and the environment at time t, respectively. a i stand for dose-response of the prey and predator to the organismal toxicant, and − g i and − m i denote the excretion and depuration rates of the toxicant, i = 1 , 2 , 3 , respectively. k 1 and ρ 1 represent the absorption of toxicant per unit of mass by the environment and by food, respectively. θ is the concentration of toxicant in the environment; β is the uptake rate of food per unit mass. Parameter h reflects the ability of the environment to clean up toxicant. u ( t ) denotes the exogenous rate of toxicant input into the environment and it is supposed to be bounded and 0 ≤ U 1 ≤ u ( t ) ≤ U 2 &lt; ∞ .

Since the coefficients of (3.2) obey the local Lipstchiz condition, then (3.2) has a unique local positive solution N ( t ) on [ 0 , τ e ) , where τ e stands for the explosion time.

Conclusions and Discussions</title><p>The dynamic relationship between predator and their preys has been and will continue to be one of the major themes in ecology due to its importance and</p><p>universal existence. This paper is concerned with a delayed stochastic one-predator-two-prey population model in a polluted environment. Firstly, we show that there exists a unique positive solution in our system. Secondly, the permanence of this system is investigated. Conditions for the system to be permanent in time average are given. Our main result in part 4 reveals the impacts of stochastic perturbations on the persistence and extinction of every species. Finally, our results are confirmed by numerical simulation.</p><p>Some questions deserve further explorations. In the first place, it is significant to study the delay population system with other disturbance, such as L&#233;vy jumps, or Markovian switching. Another problem is to consider population models with different functional responses, such as Holling II-IV type and Beddington-DeAngelis functional response. We leave these investigations for future work.</p></sec><sec id="s8"><title>Acknowledgements</title><p>This work was supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China (11861027).
