Abstract
This paper deals with a diffusive Leslie–Gower model with a strong Allee effect on the prey and a fear effect on the predator. We first consider the stability of positive constant solutions of the system in the absence of diffusion. Furthermore, we analyze the Turing instability phenomenon in positive constant solutions resulting from diffusion effects. Moreover, we investigate steady-state bifurcations using the Lyapunov–Schmidt reduction. The research establishes that diffusion can induce instability in these solutions. To validate these findings, we present numerical simulations, suggesting the model's potential to generate spatial patterns under specific conditions.
