Abstract

The purpose of this article is to investigate the existence of almost periodic solutions of a system of almost periodic Lotka-Volterra difference equations which are a prey-predator system x1(n+1)=x1(n)exp{b1(n)a1(n)x1(n)c2(n)s=nK2(ns)x2(s)},x2(n+1)=x2(n)exp{b2(n)a2(n)x2(n)+c1(n)s=nK1(ns)x1(s)} and a competitive system xi(n+1)=xi(n)exp{bi(n)aiixi(n)j=1,jils=nKij(ns)xj(s)}, by using certain stability properties, which are referred to as (K,ρ)-weakly uniformly asymptotic stable in hull and (K,ρ)-totally stable.
