Abstract

In this paper, we study the global structure of the positive solutions to a logistic equation with constant yield harvesting under Neumann boundary value conditions. Moreover, we show that the logistic equation with the variable coefficients has exactly either zero, or one, or two solutions depending on the harvesting parameter.
