Summary

We describe a prey-predator model by a nonlinear optimal control problem with infinite horizon. This problem is non convex. Therefore we apply a duality theory developed in [17] with quadratic statements for the dual variables S. The essential idea is to use weighted Sobolev spaces as spaces for the states and to formulate the dual problem in topological dual spaces. We verify second order sufficient optimality condition to prove local optimality of the steady state in [T, ∞).
