Robust homocline in a predator-prey system with hysteresis

Systems of operator-differential equations which hysteresis operators can have unstable equilibrium points with an open basin of attraction. We present an example of a robust homoclinic loop in a population dynamics model with hysteretic response of prey to variations of predator. A mechanism creating this homoclinic trajectory is discussed.
