This paper studies the periodic trajectories of a novel age-structured prey–predator system with Michaelis–Menten functional response including delays and asymmetric diffusion. To begin with, the system is turned into an abstract non-densely defined Cauchy problem, and a time-lag effect in their interaction is investigated. Next, we acquire that this system appears a periodic orbit near the positive steady state by employing the method of integrated semigroup and the Hopf bifurcation theory for semilinear equations with non-dense domain, which is also the main result of this article. Finally, in order to illustrate our theoretical analysis more vividly, we make some numerical simulations and give some discussions.
