In this paper, we are concerned with the existence of positive steady states for a diffusive predator-prey model in a spatially heterogeneous environment. We completely determine the intervals of certain parameter of the model in which a positive steady state exists.
Keywords: existence, nonexistence., steady state, Prey-predator model.
