\begin{abstract}
 This article, studies a stochastic logistic model with infinite
 delay. Using a phase space, we  establish sufficient conditions for
 the  extinction,  nonpersistence in the mean,  weak persistence, and
 stochastic permanence. A threshold between weak persistence and
 extinction is obtained. Our results state that different types of
 environmental noises have different effects on the persistence and
 extinction, and that the delay has no impact on the persistence
 and extinction for the stochastic model in the autonomous case.
 Numerical simulations illustrate the theoretical results.

\section{Introduction}\label{sec:1}

 For the previous decades, the logistic equation with delays have
received great attention due to their extensive application as
models in a variety of scientific areas, such as population
dynamics, biology and epidemiology. A classical logistic model with
infinite delay can be expressed as follows
\begin{equation}\label{e1.1}
dx(t)/dt=x(t)\Big[r(t)-a(t)x(t)+b(t)x(t-\tau)
+c(t)\int_{-\infty}^{0}x(t+\theta)d\mu(\theta)\Big]dt,
\end{equation}
where $\tau\geq 0$ represents time delay and $\mu(\theta)$ is a
probability measure on $(-\infty, 0]$. There is an extensive
literature concerned with systems similar to \eqref{e1.1}.
Regarding persistence, extinction, global attractivity and other
dynamics, mention among others: Golpalsamy
\cite{Golpalsamy84,Golpalsamy92},  Kuang and Smith \cite{Kuang93a},
Freedman and wu \cite{Freedman92}, Kuang \cite{Kuang93b} and Lisena
\cite{Lisena08}. Particularly, the book by
Gopalsamy \cite{Golpalsamy92} is a good reference in this area.


However, population models are always affected by environmental
noises. Therefore stochastic population models have been recently
investigated by many authors (see e.g.,\cite{Gard84}-\cite{Liu11b}).
In particular, May \cite{May01} has revealed that due to
environmental noises, the growth rate, interaction coefficient and so
on should be stochastic. Suppose that the growth rate $r(t)$ and the
competition coefficient $a(t)$ are affected by environmental noises,
with
\[
r(t)\to r(t)+\sigma_{1}(t)\dot{\omega}_{1}(t),\quad
-a(t)\to -a(t)+\sigma_{2}(t)\dot{\omega}_{2}(t),
\]
where $\sigma_i(t)$ are continuous positive bounded function on
$\overline{R}_{+}$ and $\sigma_i^2(t)$ represents the intensity
of the white noise at time $t$; $\dot{\omega}_i(t)$ are the white
noise, namely $w_i(t)$ is a Brownian motion defined on a complete
probability space $(\Omega,\mathbb{F},\mathcal {P})$ with a
filtration $\{\mathbb{F}_t\}_{t\in \overline{R}_{+}}$
satisfying the usual conditions (i.e., it is right continuous and
increasing while $\mathbb{F}_0$ contains all $\mathcal {P}$-null
sets), where $\overline{R}_{+}=[0,+\infty)$, $i=1,2$. Then the
corresponding stochastic system takes the  form
\begin{equation}\label{e1.2}
\begin{aligned}
   dx(t)/dt
&=x(t)\Big[r(t)-a(t)x(t)+b(t)x(t-\tau)+c(t)\int_{-\infty}^{0}
x(t+\theta)d\mu(\theta)\Big]dt\\
&\quad +\sigma_{1}(t)x(t)d\omega_{1}(t)+\sigma_{2}(t)x^2(t)d\omega_{2}(t).
\end{aligned}
\end{equation}
Here, we let the initial data $\xi$ be positive and belong to the
phase space $C_{g}$ (see \cite{Kuang93a,Haddock88,Hale78}) which is
defined as
$$
C_{g}=\{\varphi\in C((-\infty, 0];R):\|\varphi\|_{c_{g}}
=\sup_{-\infty<s\leq 0} e^{ rs}|\varphi(s)|<+\infty\},
$$
where $g(s)=e^{-rs}$, $r>0$. Furthermore, $C_{g}$ is
an admissible Banach space (see \cite{Kuang93a, Hale78}).


Model \eqref{e1.2} describes population dynamics; so it is very
important to investigate the survival of the logistic population
which involve extinction, nonpersistence in the mean, weak
persistence, stochastic permanence and threshold between
nonpersistence in the mean and weak persistence. Liu and Wang
\cite{Liu12} also pointed out that it is a interesting problem to
consider the persistence and extinction of logistic model with
infinite delay. As far as we know, there are few results of this
aspect for model \eqref{e1.2}. The aims of this paper are to investigate
the problems above. In addition, we investigate them at the phase
space $C_{g}$, which is one of the most important phase space in
discussing functional differential equations with infinite delay and
can avoid the usual well-posedness questions related to functional
equations of unbounded delay (see e.g.,\cite{Kuang93a, Haddock88,
Sawano12}).

To study model \eqref{e1.2} we assume the following:
\begin{itemize}
\item[(A1)] the functions $r(t)$, $a(t)$, $b(t)$ and  $c(t)$ are
bounded and continuous on $\overline{R}_{+}$,  and
$\inf_{t\in\overline{R}_{+}}a(t)>0$.

\item[(A2)] $\mu$ satisfies
$$
\mu_{ r}=\int_{-\infty}^{0}e^{-2 r\theta}d\mu(\theta)<+\infty.
$$
\end{itemize}
Assumption \textbf{A2}  is satisfied when
$\mu(\theta)=e^{k r\theta}(k>2)$ for $\theta\leq 0$, so
there exists a large number of these probability measures.

For simplicity, we define the following symbols:
\begin{gather*}
f^{u}=\sup_{t\in\overline{R}_{+}}f(t),\quad
f^{l}=\inf_{t\in\overline{R}_{+}}f(t),\quad
\langle x(t)\rangle=\frac{1}{t}\int_0^{t}x(s)ds,\\
x_{*}=\liminf_{t\to+\infty}x(t),\quad
x^{*}=\limsup_{t\to+\infty}x(t),\quad
R_{+}=(0,+\infty),\\
\bar{d}=\limsup_{t \to+\infty}t^{-1}\int_0^{t}\Big(r(s)
-\frac{\sigma_{1}^2(s)}{2}\Big)ds.
\end{gather*}
The following definitions are commonly used and
we list them here.
\begin{itemize}
\item[(1)] The population $x(t)$ is said to have extinction
if $\lim_{t\to+\infty}x(t)=0$.

\item[(2)] The population $x(t)$ is said to have nonpersistence
in the mean \cite{Wang98}
if $\limsup_{t\to+\infty}\langle x(t)\rangle=0$.

\item[(3)] The population $x(t)$ is said to have weak persistence
 if $\limsup_{t\to+\infty}x(t)>0$, see  \cite{Hallam86,Ma87}.

\item[(4)] Population  $x(t)$ is said to have stochastic permanence
\cite{Jiang06} if for arbitrary $\varepsilon>0$, there are constants
$\beta>0$, $M>0$ such that
\[
\liminf_{t\to +\infty}\mathcal {P}\{x(t)\geq\beta\}\geq 1-\varepsilon
\quad\text{and}\quad
\liminf_{t\to +\infty}\mathcal {P}\{x(t)\leq M\}\geq 1-\varepsilon.
\]
\end{itemize}
From the above definitions it follows that:
stochastic permanence implies stochastic weak persistence,
extinction implies stochastic non-persistence in the mean.
But generally, their reverses are not true.

The rest of this article is arranged as follows. In Section 2, we show
that model \eqref{e1.2} has a unique positive global solution. Afterward,
sufficient criteria for extinction, nonpersistence in the mean, weak
persistence and stochastic permanence are established in Section 3.
Section 4 presents some figures to illustrate the main
results. We close this article with some conclusions and remarks.

\section{Positive and global solutions}

 As the state $x(t)$ of model \eqref{e1.2} is the size of the
population in the system, it should be nonnegative. In this section
we shall show that the solution of model \eqref{e1.2} has a unique global
positive solution.

Wei \cite{Wei06,Wei13,Wei07} and Xu \cite{Xu07,Xu09}  proved
that, in order for a stochastic functional differential equations
with infinite delay to have a unique global solution for any given
initial data $\xi\in C_{g}$, the coefficients of the equation are
generally required to satisfy the linear growth condition and the
local Lipschitz condition. The local Lipschitz condition guarantees
that the unique solution exists in $(-\infty, \tau_{e})$, where
$\tau_{e}$ is the explosion time (see \cite{Mao02}). Clearly, the
coefficients of  \eqref{e1.2} satisfy the local Lipschitz condition, but
do not satisfy the linear growth condition.


\begin{theorem} \label{thm2.1}
Let {\rm (A1)} and {\rm (A2)} hold. Then, for any given
positive initial value $\xi\in C_{g}$, there is a unique global
solution $x(t)$ to model \eqref{e1.2} for $t\in \mathbb{R}$ and the solution will
remain in $R_{+}$ with probability 1, namely $x(t)\in \mathbb{R}_{+}$ for all
$t\in \mathbb{R}$ almost surely.
\end{theorem}

\begin{proof}
Since the coefficients of the equation are locally Lipschitz
continuous, for any given positive initial value $\xi\in C_{g}$,
there is a unique local solution $x(t)$ on $t\in(-\infty,\tau_{e})$,
where $\tau_{e}$ is the explosion time. To show this
solution is global, we need to show that $\tau_{e}=+\infty$ a.s. Let
$k_0>0$ be sufficiently large such that
$$
\frac{1}{k_0}<\min_{-\infty<\theta\leq 0}\xi(\theta)
\leq\max_{-\infty<\theta
\leq 0}\xi(\theta)<k_0.
$$
For each  integer $k\geq k_0$, define the stopping time
\begin{align*}
\tau_{k}=\inf\big\{t\in (-\infty,
\tau_{e}):x(t)\leq\frac{1}{k}\text{ or }x(t)\geq k\big\}.
\end{align*}
Clearly, $\tau_{k}$ is increasing as $k\to+\infty$. Set
$\tau_{+\infty}=\lim_{k\to+\infty}\tau_{k}$, whence
$\tau_{+\infty}\leq \tau_{e}$ a.s. for all $t\geq 0$.
If we can show that $\tau_{+\infty}=+\infty$ a.s., then
$\tau_{e}=+\infty$ a.s. and $x(t)\in \mathbb{R}_{+}$ a.s.
In other words, to complete the proof
all we need to show is that $\tau_{+\infty}=+\infty$ a.s. To show
this statement, let us define a $C^2$-function
$V: R_{+}\to R_{+}$ by $V(x)=\sqrt{x}-1-0.5\ln x$.
Let $k\geq k_0$ and $T>0$ be arbitrary. For $0\leq t\leq \tau_{k}\wedge T$,
we can apply the It\^{o}'s formula to
$\int_{t-\tau}^{t}x^2(s)ds+V(x(t))$ to obtain
\begin{align*}
&d\Big[\int_{t-\tau}^{t}x^2(s)ds+V(x(t))\Big]\\

&\quad +0.5[x^{0.5}(t)-1]\sigma_{1}(t)dw_{1}(t)+0.5[x^{1.5}(t)-x(t)]
 \sigma_{2}(t)dw_{2}(t),\\
&=F(x)dt+\int_{-\infty}^{0}x^2(t+\theta)d\mu(\theta)dt-x^2(t)dt
 +0.5[x^{0.5}(t)-1]\sigma_{1}(t) x(t)dw_{1}(t)\\
&\quad +0.5[x^{0.5}(t)-1]\sigma_{2}(t) x^2(t)dw_{2}(t)
\end{align*}
where
\begin{align*}
F(x)&=0.25\sigma_{1}^2(t)+0.25\sigma_{2}^2(t)x^2(t)
 +0.5r(t)[x^{0.5}(t)-1]-0.5a(t)[x^{0.5}(t)-1]x(t)\\
&\quad +0.0625b^2(t)[x^{0.5}(t)-1]^2+0.0625c^2(t)[x^{0.5}(t)-1]^2\\
&\quad +2x^2(t)-0.125\sigma^2_{1}(t)x^{1.5}(t)-0.125\sigma^2_{2}(t)x^{2.5}(t).
\end{align*}
Under assumptions (A1)--(A2), it is easy to see that $F(x)$ is
bounded, say by $K$, in $R_{+}$. We therefore obtain that
\begin{align*}
&d\Big[\int_{t-\tau}^{t}x^2(s)ds+V(x(t))\Big]\\
&\leq Kdt+\int_{-\infty}^{0}x^2(t+\theta)d\mu(\theta)dt-x^2(t)dt
+0.5[x^{0.5}(t)-1]\sigma_{1}(t)dw_{1}(t)\\
&\quad +0.5[x^{1.5}(t)-x(t)]\sigma_{2}(t)dw_{2}(t).
\end{align*}
Integrating both sides from 0 to $t$, and then taking expectations,
yields
\begin{align*}
&E\Big[\int_{t-\tau}^{t}x^2(s)ds+V(x(t))\Big]\\
&\leq\int_{-\tau}^{0}x^2(s)ds+V(x(0))
+Kt+E\int_0^{t}\int_{-\infty}^{0}x^2(s+\theta)d\mu(\theta)ds
-E\int_0^{t}x^2(s)ds.
\end{align*}
Moreover, we obtain that
\begin{align*}
&\int_0^{t}\int_{-\infty}^{0}x^2(s+\theta)d\mu(\theta)ds\\
&=\int_0^{t}\Big[\int_{-\infty}^{-s}x^2(s+\theta)d\mu(\theta)ds
 +\int_{-s}^{0}x^2(s+\theta)d\mu(\theta)\Big]ds\\
&=\int_0^{t}ds\Big[\int_{-\infty}^{-s}e^{2 r(s+\theta)}x^2
 (s+\theta)e^{-2 r(s+\theta)}d\mu(\theta)
 +\int_{-t}^{0}d\mu(\theta)\int_{-\theta}^{t}x^2(s+\theta)ds\\
&\leq \|\xi\|^2_{C_{g}}\int_0^{t}e^{-2 rs}ds
 \int_{-\infty}^{0}e^{-2 r\theta}d\mu(\theta)
 +\int_{-\infty}^{0}d\mu(\theta)\int_0^{t}x^2(s)ds\\
&\leq \|\xi\|^2_{C_{g}}\mu_{ r}t+\int_0^{t}x^2(s)ds.
\end{align*}
Consequently,
\begin{align*}
E\Big[\int_{t-\tau}^{t}x^2(s)ds+V(x(t))\Big]\leq\int_{-\tau}^{0}x^2(s)ds+V(x(0))+Kt+\| \xi\|^2_{C_{g}}\mu_{ r}t.\\
\end{align*}
Letting $t=\tau_{k}\wedge T$, we obtain
\begin{align*}
&E\Big[\int_{\tau_{k}\wedge T-\tau}^{\tau_{k}\wedge T}x^2(s)ds
+V(x(\tau_{k}\wedge T))\Big]\\
&\leq\int_{-\tau}^{0}x^2(s)ds+V(x(0))
+KE(\tau_{k}\wedge T)+\|\xi\|^2_{C_{g}}\mu_{ r}(\tau_{k}\wedge T).
\end{align*}
Therefore,
\begin{equation}\label{e2.1}
EV(x(\tau_{k}\wedge T))\leq\int_{-\tau}^{0}x^2(s)ds+V(x(0))+KT
+\| \xi\|^2_{C_{g}}\mu_{ r}T.
\end{equation}
Note that for every $\omega\in\{\tau_{k}\leq T\}$,
$x(\tau_{k}, \omega)$ equals either $k$ or $\frac{1}{k}$, and hence
$V(x(\tau_{k},\omega))$ is no less than either
$$
\sqrt{k}-1-0.5\log(k)
$$
or
$$
\sqrt{\frac{1}{k}}-1-0.5\log(\frac{1}{k})=\sqrt{\frac{1}{k}}-1+0.5\log(k).
$$
Consequently,
$$
V(x(\tau_{k},\omega))\geq[\sqrt{k}-1-0.5\log(k)]
\wedge[\sqrt{\frac{1}{k}}-1+0.5\log(k)].
$$
From \eqref{e2.1} it follows that
\begin{align*}
&\int_{-\tau}^{0}x^2(s)ds+V(x(0))+KT+\| \xi\|^2_{C_{g}}\mu_{r}T\\
&\geq E[1_{\{\tau_{k}\leq T\}}(\omega)V(x(\tau_{k},\omega))]\\
&\geq P\{\tau_{k}\leq T\}([\sqrt{k}-1-0.5\log(k)]\wedge
[\sqrt{\frac{1}{k}}-1+0.5\log(k)]),
\end{align*}
where $1_{\{\tau_{k}\leq T\}}$ is the indicator function of
$\{\tau_{k}\leq T\}$. Letting $k\to\infty$ gives
$$
\lim_{k\to+\infty}P\{\tau_{k}\leq T\}=0
$$
and hence
$P\{\tau_{+\infty}\leq T\}=0$.
Since $T>0$ is arbitrary, we must have
$$
P\{\tau_{+\infty}<+\infty\}=0,
$$
so $P\{\tau_{+\infty}=+\infty\}=1$ as required.
\end{proof}


\section{Persistence and extinction for model \eqref{e1.2}}

From Theorem \ref{thm2.1} we know that solutions of  \eqref{e1.2} will remain
in the positive cone $R_{+}$. This nice property provides
us with a great opportunity to construct different types of Lyapunov
functions to discuss how the solutions vary in $R_{+}$ in more
details. In this section, we shall study the persistence and
extinction of model \eqref{e1.2}.

\begin{theorem} \label{thm3.1}
Let assumption {\rm (A1)} and {\rm (A2)} hold. If
$\bar{d}<0$ and
$\inf_{t\in \overline{R}_{+}}\{a(t)-b(t+\tau)-c^{u}\}\geq 0$, then the
population $x(t)$ modeled by \eqref{e1.2} approaches extinction a.s.
\end{theorem}

\begin{proof}
Applying It\^{o}'s formula to \eqref{e1.2} leads to
\begin{align*}
&d\int_{t-\tau}^{t}b(s+\tau)x(s)ds+d\ln x(t)\\
&=(b(t+\tau)x(t)-b(t)x(t-\tau))dt+\Big[r(t)-\frac{\sigma_{1}^2(t)}{2}
 -a(t)x(t)+b(t)x(t-\tau)\\
&\quad +c(t)\int_{-\infty}^{0}x(t+\theta)d\mu(\theta)
 -\frac{\sigma_{2}^2(t)(t)x^2(t)}{2}\Big]dt
 +\sigma_{1}(t)d\omega_{1}(t)+\sigma_{2}(t)x(t)d\omega_{2}(t).
\end{align*}
Then we have
\begin{equation}\label{e3.1}
\begin{aligned}
&\int_{t-\tau}^{t}b(s+\tau)x(s)ds-\int_{-\tau}^{0}b(s+\tau)x(s)ds+\ln
x(t)-\ln x(0)\\
&=\int_0^{t}\Big[r(s)-\frac{\sigma_{1}^2(t)}{2}-(a(s)-b(s+\tau))x(s)
 +c(s)\int_{-\infty}^{0}x(s+\theta)d\mu(\theta)\\
&\quad -\frac{\sigma_{2}^2(t)x^2(s)}{2}\Big]ds
 +\int_0^{t}\sigma_{1}(s)d\omega_{1}(s)
 +\int_0^{t}\sigma_{2}(s)x(s)d\omega_{2}(s).
\end{aligned}
\end{equation}
By hypothesis (A3), we obtain
\begin{align*}
&\int_0^{t}c(s)\int_{-\infty}^{0}x(s+\theta)d\mu(\theta)ds\\
&=\int_0^{t}c(s)\Big[\int_{-\infty}^{-s}x(s+\theta)d\mu(\theta)ds
 +\int_{-s}^{0}x(s+\theta)d\mu(\theta)\Big]ds\\
&=\int_0^{t}c(s)ds\int_{-\infty}^{-s}e^{ r(s+\theta)}x(s+\theta)
 e^{- r(s+\theta)}d\mu(\theta)+\int_{-t}^{0}d\mu(\theta)
 \int_{-\theta}^{t}c(s)x(s+\theta)ds\\
&\leq c^{u}\| \xi\|_{c_{g}}\int_0^{t}e^{- rs}ds
 \int_{-\infty}^{0}e^{- r\theta}d\mu(\theta)+c^{u}
 \int_{-\infty}^{0}d\mu(\theta)\int_0^{t}x(s)ds\\
&\leq c^{u}\| \xi\|_{c_{g}}\int_0^{t}e^{- rs}ds
 \int_{-\infty}^{0}e^{-2 r\theta}d\mu(\theta)+c^{u}
 \int_{-\infty}^{0}d\mu(\theta)\int_0^{t}x(s)ds\\
&\leq \frac{1}{ r}c^{u}\|\xi\|_{C_{g}}\mu_{ r}(1-e^{- rt})
 +c^{u}\int_0^{t}x(s)ds.
\end{align*}
Consequently,
\begin{equation}\label{e3.2}
\begin{aligned}
&\int_{t-\tau}^{t}b(s+\tau)x(s)ds-\int_{-\tau}^{0}b(s+\tau)x(s)ds
 +\ln x(t)-\ln x(0)\\
&\leq \int_0^{t}\Big[r(s)-\frac{\sigma_{1}^2(s)}{2}-\Big(a(s)-b(s+\tau)
 -c^{u}\Big)x(s)-\frac{\sigma_{2}^2(s)x^2(s)}{2}\Big]ds\\
&\quad +\frac{1}{ r}c^{u}\|\xi\|_{C_{g}}\mu_{ r}(1-e^{- rt})
 +M_{1}(t)+M_{2}(t),
\end{aligned}
\end{equation}
where
\[
M_{1}(t)=\int_0^{t}\sigma_{1}(s)d\omega_{1}(s), \quad
M_{2}(t)=\int_0^{t}\sigma_{2}(s)x(s)d\omega_{2}(s).
\]
 The quadratic variation of $M_{1}(t)$ is
\[
\langle M_{1}(t),M_{1}(t)\rangle
 =\int_0^{t}\sigma_{1}^2(t)(s)ds\leq(\sigma_{1}^{u})^2t.
\]
Using the strong law of large numbers for martingales (see
e.g. \cite[page 16]{Mao97}) leads to
\begin{equation}\label{e3.3}
\lim_{t\to+\infty}\frac{M_{1}(t)}{t}=0, \quad\text{a.s.}
\end{equation}
The quadratic variation of $M_{2}(t)$ is
$\langle M_{2}(t),M_{2}(t)\rangle=\int_0^{t}\sigma_{2}^2(s)x^2(s)ds$.
By  the exponential martingale inequality, for any positive
constants $T_0,\alpha$ and $\beta$, we have
\begin{equation}\label{e3.4}
P\Big\{\sup_{0\leq t\leq
T_0}\Big[M_{2}(t)-\frac{\alpha}{2}\langle M_{2}(t),
M_{2}(t)\rangle\Big]>\beta\Big\}\leq e^{-\alpha\beta}.
\end{equation}
Choose $T_0=k$, $\alpha=1$, $\beta=2\ln k$. Then it follows that
$$
P\Big\{\sup_{0\leq t\leq k}\Big[M_{2}(t)-\frac{1}{2}
\langle M_{2}(t), M_{2}(t)\rangle\Big]>2\ln k\Big\}\leq\frac{1}{k^2}.
$$
Using Borel-Cantelli's lemma yields that for almost all
$\omega\in\Omega$, there is a random integer $k_0=k_0(\omega)$
such that for $k\geq k_0$,
$$
\sup_{0\leq t\leq k}\Big[M_{2}(t)-\frac{1}{2}\langle M_{2}(t),
 M_{2}(t)\rangle\Big]\leq 2\ln k.
$$
This is to say
$$
M_{2}(t)\leq 2\ln k+\frac{1}{2}\langle M_{2}(t), M_{2}(t)\rangle
=2\ln k+\frac{1}{2}\int_0^{t}\sigma_{2}^2(s)x^2(s)ds
$$
for all $0\leq t\leq k, k\geq k_0$ a.s. Substituting this
inequality into \eqref{e3.1}, we  obtain
\begin{equation}\label{e3.5}
\begin{aligned}
\ln x(t)-\ln x(0)
&\leq \int_{-\tau}^{0}b(s)x(s)ds+\int_0^{t}
\Big[r(s)-\frac{\sigma_{1}^2(s)}{2}-(a(s)-b(s)-c^{u})x(s)\Big]ds\\
&\quad +2\ln k +\frac{1}{ r}c^{u}\|\xi\|_{C_{g}}\mu_{ r}(1-e^{- rt})+M_{1}(t)
\end{aligned}
\end{equation}
for all $0\leq t\leq k$, $k\geq k_0$ a.s. In other words, we have
shown that for $0<k-1\leq t\leq k, k\geq k_0$,
\begin{align*}
&t^{-1}\{\ln x(t)-\ln x(0)\}\\
&\leq t^{-1}\int_{-\tau}^{0}b(s)x(s)ds+t^{-1}\int_0^{t}
 \Big[r-\frac{\sigma_{1}^2(s)}{2}-((a(s)-b(s)-c^{u})x(s)\Big]ds\\
&\quad +2(k-1)^{-1}\ln k+t^{-1}\frac{1}{ r}c^{u}\|\xi\|_{C_{g}}
 \mu_{ r}(1-e^{- rt}) +M_{1}(t)/t.
\end{align*}
Taking the limit superior on both sides and  using \eqref{e3.3}
yields $\limsup_{t\to+\infty}\frac{\ln x(t)}{t}\leq \bar{d}$.
 That is to say, if $\bar{d}<0$, one  sees that
$\lim_{t\to+\infty}x(t)=0$ a.s.
\end{proof}

\begin{theorem} \label{thm3.2}
Let  {\rm (A1)} and {\rm (A2)} hold, if
$\bar{d}=0$ and $\inf_{t\in\overline{R}_{+}}\{a(t)-b(t+\tau)-c^{u}\}\geq
0$, then the population $x(t)$ represented by \eqref{e1.2} is nonpersistent
in the mean a.s.
\end{theorem}

\begin{proof}
From $\bar{d}=0$ and \eqref{e3.3}, then
for all $\varepsilon>0$, there exists $T$, such that
\begin{align*}
&t^{-1}\int_0^{t}(r(s)-\frac{\sigma_{1}(s)}{2})ds
+t^{-1}\int_{-\tau}^{0}b(s)x(s)ds\\
&+t^{-1}\frac{1}{r}c^{u}\|\xi\|_{C_{g}}\mu_{ r}(1-e^{- rt})
+\frac{2\ln k}{t}+\frac{M_{1}(t)}{t}<\varepsilon\quad \forall t>T.
\end{align*}
In view of \eqref{e3.5}, we have
\begin{align*}
&\ln x(t)-\ln x(0)\\
&\leq \int_{-\tau}^{0}b(s)x(s)ds+\int_0^{t}\Big[r(s)
 -\frac{\sigma_{1}^2(s)}{2}-(a(s)-b(s+\tau)-c^{u})x(s)\Big]ds\\
&\quad +t^{-1}\frac{1}{r}c^{u}\| \xi\|_{C_{g}}\mu_{ r}(1-e^{- rt})+2\ln
k+M_{1}(t)\\
&<\varepsilon t-\int_0^{t}(a(s)-b(s+\tau)-c^{u})x(s)ds
\end{align*}
for all $T\leq k-1\leq t\leq k$, $k\geq k_0$ a.s.
Define $h(t)=\int_0^{t}x(s)ds$ and
$N=\inf_{s\in \mathbb{R}}[a(s)-b(s+\tau)-c^{u}]$, then we have
$$
\ln(dh/dt)<\varepsilon t-Nh(t)+\ln x(0), \quad t>T.
$$
The rest of proof is similar to \cite[Theorem 3]{Liu11a} and is
hence omitted.
\end{proof}

\begin{theorem} \label{thm3.3}
Let  {\rm (A1)} and {\rm (A2)} hold. If $\bar{d}>0$,
then the population $x(t)$ modeled by \eqref{e1.2} is weakly persistent
a.s.
\end{theorem}

\begin{proof}
Now suppose that $\bar{d}>0$, we will prove
$\limsup_{t\to+\infty}x(t)>0$ a.s. If this assertion
is not true, let $F=\{\limsup_{t\to+\infty}x(t)=0\}$
and suppose $P(F)>0$. In view of \eqref{e3.1},
\begin{equation}\label{e3.6}
\begin{aligned}
&t^{-1}\int_{t-\tau}^{t}bx(s)ds-t^{-1}\int_{-\tau}^{0}bx(s)ds+t^{-1}\ln
x(t)\\
&=t^{-1}\ln x(0)+t^{-1}\int_0^{t}\Big[r(s)-\frac{\sigma_{1}^2(s)}{2}
 -(a(s)-b(s))x(s)\\
&\quad +c(s)\int_{-\infty}^{0}x(s+\theta)d\mu(\theta)
 -\frac{\sigma_{2}^2(s)x^2(s)}{2}\Big]ds+M_{1}(t)/t+M_{2}(t)/t.
\end{aligned}
\end{equation}
On the other hand, for all $\omega\in F$, we have
$\lim_{t\to+\infty}x(t,\omega)=0$, then the law of
large numbers for local martingales indicates that
$\lim_{t\to+\infty} M_{2}(t)/t=0$.
Substituting this equality and \eqref{e3.3} into \eqref{e3.6} results in the
contradiction
$$
0 \geq\limsup_{t\to+\infty}[t^{-1}\ln x(t,~\omega)]=\bar{d}>0.
$$
\end{proof}

It is well known that in the study of population system, stochastic
permanence, which means that the population will survive forever, is
one of the most important and interesting topics due to its
theoretical and practical significance. So we show that
$x(t)$ modeled by \eqref{e1.2} is stochastic permanent in some cases.

\begin{theorem} \label{thm3.4}
Let  {\rm (A1)} and {\rm (A2)} hold. If
$\big(r(t)-\frac{\sigma^2_{1}(t)}{2}\big)_{*}>0$, $b(t)\geq 0$, and $c(t)\geq 0$,
then the population $x(t)$ modeled by \eqref{e1.2} will be
stochastic permanent.
\end{theorem}

\begin{proof}
First, we prove that for arbitrary $\varepsilon>0$, there are
constants $M>0$ such that $\liminf_{t\to +\infty}\mathcal {P}\{x(t)\leq M\}
\geq 1-\varepsilon$.

Let $0<p<1$ and $\varepsilon_{1}\in (0,2 r)$, we compute
\begin{align*}
&dx^{p}(t)\\
&=px^{p-1}(t)dx(t)+\frac{1}{2}p(p-1)x^{p-2}(t)(dx(t))^2\\
&=px^{p-1}(t)\Big[\Big(x(t)\Big(r(t)-a(t)x(t)+b(t)x(t-\tau)
 +c(t)\int_{-\infty}^{0}x(t+\theta)d\mu(\theta)\Big)\Big)dt\\
&\quad +\sigma_{1}(t)x(t)d\omega_{1}(t)
 +\sigma_{2}(t)x^2d\omega_{2}(t)\Big]
 +\frac{1}{2}p(p-1)\sigma_{1}^2(t)x^{p}(t)dt\\
&\quad +\frac{1}{2}p(p-1)\sigma_{2}^2(t)x^{p+2}(t)dt
\\
&\leq \Big[r(t)px^{p}(t)+\frac{p^2b^2(t)x^{2p}(t)}{4}+x^2(t-\tau)
 +\frac{p^2c^2(t)x^{2p}(t)}{4}\\
&\quad +\int_{-\infty}^{0}x^2(t+\theta)d\mu(\theta)\Big]dt
 +p\sigma_{1}(t)x^{p}(t)d\omega_{1}(t)
 +p\sigma_{2}(t)x^{p+1}(t)d\omega_{2}(t)\\
&\quad -\frac{1}{2}p(1-p)\sigma_{1}^2(t)x^{p}(t)dt
 -\frac{1}{2}p(1-p)\sigma_{2}^2(t)x^{p+2}(t)dt
\\
&=F(x)dt-\Big[\varepsilon_{1} x^{p}(t)+e^{\varepsilon_{1}\tau}x^2(t)
 -x^2(t-\tau)-\int_{-\infty}^{0}x^2(t+\theta)d\mu(\theta)
 +\mu_{ r}x^2(t)\Big]dt\\
&\quad +p\sigma_{1}(t)x^{p}(t)d\omega_{1}(t)
 +p\sigma_{2}(t)x^{p+1}(t)d\omega_{2}(t)
\end{align*}
where
\begin{align*}
F(x)&=e^{\varepsilon_{1}\tau}x^2(t)+\mu_{ r}x^2(t)
  +(\varepsilon_{1}+r(t)p)x^{p}(t)+\frac{p^2b^2(t)x^{2p}(t)}{4}\\
&\quad +\frac{p^2c^2(t)x^{2p}(t)}{4}
 -\frac{1}{2}p(1-p)\sigma_{1}^2(t)(t)x^{p}(t)
 -\frac{1}{2}p(1-p)\sigma_{2}^2(t)x^{2+p}(t).
\end{align*}
From  (A1)--(A2) and $0<p<1$, we have that $F(x)$ is
bounded in $R_{+}$, namely
$$
\sup_{x\in \mathbb{R}_{+}}F(x)=M_3<+\infty.
$$
Therefore,
\begin{align*}
dx^{p}(t)
&=[M_3-\varepsilon_{1}
x^{p}(t)-e^{\varepsilon_{1}\tau}x^2(t)+x^2(t-\tau)]dt\\
&\quad +\int_{-\infty}^{0}x^2(t+\theta)d\mu(\theta)dt-\mu_{ r}x^2(t)dt\\
&\quad +p\sigma_{1}(t)x^{p}(t)d\omega_{1}(t)
 +p\sigma_{2}(t)x^{p+1}(t)d\omega_{2}(t).
\end{align*}
Once again by It\v{o}'s formula we have
\begin{align*}
d[e^{\varepsilon_{1} t}x^{p}(t)]
&=e^{\varepsilon_{1} t}[\varepsilon_{1}x^{p}(t)dt+dx^{p}(t)]\\
&\leq e^{\varepsilon_{1} t}\Big[M_3-e^{\varepsilon_{1}\tau}x^2(t)+x^2(t-\tau)
 +\int_{-\infty}^{0}x^2(t+\theta)d\mu(\theta)-\mu_{ r}x^2(t)\Big]dt\\
&\quad +e^{\varepsilon_{1}t}\Big(p\sigma_{1}(t)x^{p}(t)d\omega_{1}(t)
  +p\sigma_{2}(t)x^{p+1}(t)d\omega_{2}(t)\Big).
\end{align*}
Hence, we have
\begin{align*}
&e^{\varepsilon_{1} t}Ex^{p}(t)\\
&\leq \xi^{p}(0)+\frac{e^{\varepsilon_{1}t}M_3}{\varepsilon_{1}}
 -\frac{M_3}{\varepsilon_{1}}-E\int_0^{t}e^{\varepsilon_{1}s
 +\varepsilon_{1}\tau}x^2(s)ds+E\int_0^{t}e^{\varepsilon_{1} s}x^2(s-\tau)ds\\
&\quad +E\int_0^{t}e^{\varepsilon_{1} s}\int_{-\infty}^{0}
 x^2(s+\theta)d\mu(\theta)ds-E\int_0^{t}\mu_{ r}e^{\varepsilon_{1}s}x^2(s)ds\\
&\leq \xi^{p}(0)+\frac{e^{\varepsilon_{1} t}M_3}{\varepsilon_{1}}
 -\frac{M_3}{\varepsilon_{1}}-E\int_0^{t}e^{\varepsilon_{1} s
 +\varepsilon_{1}\tau}x^2(s)ds+E\int_{-\tau}^{t-\tau}
 e^{\varepsilon_{1}s+\varepsilon_{1}\tau}x^2(s)ds\\
&+E\int_0^{t}e^{\varepsilon_{1} s}\int_{-\infty}^{0}x^2
 (s+\theta)d\mu(\theta)ds-E\int_0^{t}\mu_{ r}e^{\varepsilon_{1} s}x^2(s)ds\\
&\leq \xi^{p}(0)+\frac{e^{\varepsilon_{1} t}M_3}{\varepsilon_{1}}
 -\frac{M_3}{\varepsilon_{1}}+\int_{-\tau}^{0}e^{\varepsilon_{1}s+\varepsilon_{1}
 \tau}x^2(s)ds\\
&\quad +E\int_0^{t}e^{\varepsilon_{1} s} \int_{-\infty}^{0}
 x^2(s+\theta)d\mu(\theta)ds
-E\mu_{ r}\int_0^{t}e^{\varepsilon_{1} s}x^2(s)ds
\end{align*}
From  (A2), we have
\begin{align*}
&\int_0^{t}e^{\varepsilon_{1}s}\int_{-\infty}^{0}x^2(s+\theta)d\mu(\theta)ds\\
&=\int_0^{t}e^{\varepsilon_{1}s}
 \Big[\int_{-\infty}^{-s}x^2(s+\theta)d\mu(\theta)+\int_{-s}^{0}
 x^2(s+\theta)d\mu(\theta)\Big]ds\\
&=\int_0^{t}e^{\varepsilon_{1}s}ds\int_{-\infty}^{-s}
 e^{2 r(s+\theta)}x^2(s+\theta)e^{-2 r(s+\theta)}d\mu(\theta)
 +\int_{-t}^{0}d\mu(\theta)\int_{-\theta}^{t}e^{\varepsilon_{1}(s)}
 x^2(s+\theta)ds\\
&=\int_0^{t}e^{\varepsilon_{1}s}ds\int_{-\infty}^{-s}e^{2 r(s+\theta)}
 x^2(s+\theta)e^{-2 r(s+\theta)}d\mu(\theta)+\int_{-t}^{0}d\mu(\theta)
 \int_0^{t+\theta}\! e^{\varepsilon_{1} (s-\theta)}x^2(s)ds\\
&\leq \|\xi\|^2_{C_{g}}\int_0^{t}e^{(\varepsilon_{1}-2 r)s}ds
 \int_{-\infty}^{0}e^{-2 r\theta}d\mu(\theta)
 +\int_{-\infty}^{0}e^{-\varepsilon_{1}\theta}d\mu(\theta)
 \int_0^{t}e^{\varepsilon_{1} s}x^2(s)ds\\
&\leq \|\xi\|^2_{C_{g}}\mu_{ r}t+\mu_{ r}
 \int_0^{t}e^{\varepsilon_{1} s}x(s)ds.
\end{align*}
This implies 
$$
\limsup_{t\to+\infty}E[x^{p}(t)]\leq\frac{ M_3}{\varepsilon_{1}}.
$$
Now, for any $\varepsilon>0$ and
$M=\big(\frac{M_3}{\varepsilon_{1}}\big)^{1/p}/\varepsilon^{1/p}$,  by
Chebyshev's inequality,
$$
\mathcal {P}\{x(t)>M\}=\mathcal {P}\{x^{p}(t)>M^{p}\}\leq E[x^{p}(t)]/M^{p}.
$$
Hence
$$
\limsup_{t\to+\infty}\mathcal {P}\{x(t)>M\}\leq\varepsilon.
$$
This implies
$$
\liminf_{t\to+\infty}\mathcal {P}\{x(t)\leq M\}\geq 1-\varepsilon.
$$

Next, we claim that for arbitrary $\varepsilon>0$, there is a constant
$\beta>0$ such that $\liminf_{t\to +\infty}\mathcal
{P}\{x(t)\geq\beta\}\geq 1-\varepsilon$.
Define $V_{1}(x)=1/x^2$ for $x\in \mathbb{R}_{+}$. Applying It\^{o}'s
formula to\eqref{e1.2} we  obtain
\begin{align*}
dV_{1}(x(t))
&=-2x^{-3}dx+3x^{-4}(dx)^2\\
&=2V_{1}(x)[1.5\sigma_{2}^2(t)x^2+a(t)x-r(t)+1.5\sigma_{1}^2(t)-b(t)x(t-\tau)\\
&\quad -c(t)\int_{-\infty}^{0}x(t+\theta)d\mu(\theta)]dt
 -2\sigma_{1}(t)x^{-2}d\omega_{1}(t)-2\sigma_{2}(t)x^{-1}d\omega_{2}(t).
\end{align*}
Since $(r(t)-\frac{\sigma^2_{1}(t)}{2})_{*}>0$, we
can choose a sufficient small constant $0<\kappa<1$ such that
$\big(r(t)-\frac{\sigma^2_{1}(t)}{2}\big)_{*}-\kappa(\sigma_{1}^{u})^2>0$.

Define
$V_{2}(x)=(1+V_{1}(x))^{\kappa}$.
Using It\^{o}'s formula again leads to
\begin{align*}
dV_{2}
&=\kappa(1+V_{1}(x(t)))^{\kappa-1}dV_{1}
 +0.5\kappa(\kappa-1)(1+V_{1}(x(t)))^{\kappa-2}(dV_{1})^2\\
&= \kappa(1+V_{1}(x))^{\kappa-2}\{(1+V_{1}(x))2V_{1}{(x)}

&\quad-b(t)x(t-\tau)-c(t)\int_{-\infty}^{0}x(t+\theta)d\mu(\theta)]
 +2\sigma_{1}^2(t)(\kappa-1)V_{1}^2(x)\\
&\quad +2\sigma_{2}^2(t)(\kappa-1)V_{1}(x)\}dt-2\kappa(1+V_{1}(x))^{\kappa-1}
 x^{-2}\sigma_{1}(t)d\omega_{1}(t)\\
&\quad -2\kappa(1+V_{1}(x))^{\kappa-1}x^{-1}\sigma_{2}(t)d\omega_{2}(t)\\
&\leq \kappa(1+V_{1}(x))^{\kappa-2}\{(-2r(t)+3\sigma_{1}^2(t)
 +2\sigma_{1}^2(t)(\kappa-1))V_{1}^2(x)+2a(t)V_{1}^{1.5}(x)\\
&\quad +[3\sigma_{1}^2(t)-2r(t)+(2\kappa+1)\sigma_{2}^2(t)]V_{1}(x)

&\quad -2\kappa(1+V_{1}(x))^{\kappa-1}x^{-2}\sigma_{1}(t)d\omega_{1}(t)
 -2\kappa(1+V_{1}(x))^{\kappa-1}x^{-1}\sigma_{2}(t)d\omega_{2}(t)\\
&= \kappa(1+V_{1}(x))^{\kappa-2}\{(-2r(t)+\sigma_{1}^2(t)
 +2\kappa\sigma_{1}^2(t))V_{1}^2(x)+2a(t)V_{1}^{1.5}(x)+[3\sigma_{1}^2(t)\\
&-2r+(2\kappa+1)\sigma_{2}^2(t)]V_{1}(x)+2a(t)V_{1}^{0.5}(x)

&\leq \kappa(1+V_{1}(x))^{\kappa-2}\Big\{-2\Big(\Big(r(t)
 -\frac{\sigma^2_{1}(t)}{2}\Big)_{*}-\kappa(\sigma_{1}^{u})^2
 \Big)V_{1}^2(x)+2a^{u}V_{1}^{1.5}(x)\\
&\quad +[3(\sigma_{1}^{u})^2-2r^{l}+(2\kappa+1)(\sigma_{2}^{u})^2]V_{1}(x)

&-2\kappa(1+V_{1}(x))^{\kappa-1}x^{-2}\sigma_{1}(t)d\omega_{1}(t)
 -2\kappa(1+V_{1}(x))^{\kappa-1}x^{-1}\sigma_{2}(t)d\omega_{2}(t)
\end{align*}
for sufficiently large $t\geq T$. Now, let $\eta>0$ be sufficiently
small satisfying
$$
0<\frac{\eta}{2\kappa}<(r(t)-\frac{\sigma^2_{1}(t)}{2})_{*}
-\kappa(\sigma_{1}^{u})^2.
$$
Define $V_3(x)=e^{\eta t}V_{2}(x)$. By  It\v{o}'s formula
\begin{align*}
&dV_3(x(t))\\
&=\eta e^{\eta t}V_{2}(x)+e^{\eta t}dV_{2}(x)\\
&\leq \kappa e^{\eta
t}(1+V_{1}(x(t)))^{\kappa-2}\Big\{\eta(1+V_{1}(x))^2/\kappa-2\Big((r(t)

&\quad+2a^{u}V_{1}^{1.5}(x)+(3(\sigma_{1}^{u})^2-2r_{*}
 +(2\kappa+1)(\sigma_{1}^{u})^2)V_{1}(x)+2a^{u}V_{1}^{0.5}(x)
 +3(\sigma_{2}^{u})^2\Big\}dt\\
&\quad -2\kappa e^{\eta t}(1+V_{1}(x))^{\theta-1}x^{-2}\sigma_{1}(t)
 d\omega_{1}(t)-2\kappa
 e^{\eta t}(1+V_{1}(x))^{\kappa-1}x^{-1}\sigma_{2}(t)d\omega_{2}(t)\\
&\leq \kappa e^{\eta t}(1+V_{1}(x(t))^{\kappa-2}
 \Big\{-2\Big(\Big(r(t)-\frac{\sigma^2_{1}(t)}{2}\Big)_{*}
 -\kappa(\sigma_{1}^{u})^2-\frac{\eta}{2\kappa}\Big)V_{1}^2(x)
 +2a^{u}V_{1}^{1.5}(x)\\
&\quad +[3(\sigma_{1}^{u})^2-2r^{l}+(2\kappa+1)(\sigma_{2}^{u})^2
 +2\eta/\kappa]V_{1}(x)+2a^{u}V_{1}^{0.5}(x)+3(\sigma_{2}^{u})^2
 +\eta/\kappa\Big\}dt\\
&\quad -2\theta e^{\eta t}(1+V_{1}(x))^{\kappa-1}x^{-2}
 \sigma_{1}(t)d\omega_{1}(t)-2\kappa e^{\eta t}(1+V_{1}(x))^{\kappa-1}
 x^{-1}\sigma_{2}(t)d\omega_{2}(t)\\
&= e^{\eta t}H(x)dt-2\kappa  e^{\eta
t}(1+V_{1}(x))^{\kappa-1}x^{-2}\sigma_{1}(t)d\omega_{1}(t)\\
&\quad -2\kappa e^{\eta t}(1+V_{1}(x))^{\kappa-1}x^{-1}
 \sigma_{2}(t)d\omega_{2}(t)
\end{align*}
for $t\geq T$. Note that $H(x)$ is bounded from above in
$R_{+}$, namely $\sup_{x\in \mathbb{R}_{+}}H(x)=H<+\infty$.
Consequently,
\begin{align*}
dV_3(x(t))
&=H e^{\eta t}dt-2\kappa e^{\eta t}(1+V_{1}(x(t)))^{\kappa-1}x^{-2}(t)
 \sigma_{1}(t)d\omega_{1}(t)\\
&\quad -2\kappa e^{\eta t}(1+V_{1}(x))^{\kappa-1}x^{-1}
 \sigma_{2}(t)d\omega_{2}(t)
\end{align*}
for sufficiently large $t$. Integrating both sides of the above
inequality and then taking expectations gives
$$
E[V_3(x(t))]=E[e^{\eta t}(1+V_{1}(x(t)))^{\kappa}]
\leq e^{\eta T}(1+V_{1}(x(T)))^{\kappa}
+\frac{H}{\eta}\big(e^{\eta t}-e^{\eta T}\big).
$$
That is to say
$$
\limsup_{t\to+\infty}E[V_{1}^{\kappa}(x(t))]
\leq\limsup_{t\to+\infty}E[(1+V_{1}(x(t)))^{\kappa}]<\frac{H}{\eta}.
$$
In other words, we have shown that
$$
\limsup_{t\to+\infty}E\big[\frac{1}{x^{2\kappa}(t)}\big]
\leq \frac{H}{\eta}=M_{4}.
$$
So for any $\varepsilon>0$, set
$\beta=\varepsilon^{1/2\kappa}/M_{4}^{1/2\kappa}$, by Chebyshev's
inequality, one can derive that
$$
\mathcal {P}\{x(t)<\beta\}
=\mathcal {P}\Big\{\frac{1}{x^{2\kappa}(t)}>\frac{1}{\beta^{2\kappa}}\Big\}
\leq \frac{E[\frac{1}{x^{2\kappa}(t)}]}{\frac{1}{\beta^{2\kappa}}}.
$$
This is to say
$$
\limsup_{t\to+\infty}\mathcal {P}\{x(t)<\beta\}\leq \beta^{2\kappa}M_{4}
=\varepsilon.
$$
Consequently
$$
\liminf_{t\to+\infty}\mathcal {P}\{x(t)\geq\beta\}\geq 1-\varepsilon.
$$
This completes the whole proof.
\end{proof}

\begin{remark} \label{rmk3.1} \rm
Theorems \ref{thm3.1}--\ref{thm3.3} have an obvious and
interesting biological interpretation. Under assumption
 (A1) and  (A2), if $\bar{d}>0$, the population
$x(t)$ will be weakly persistent.
 Under assumption  (A1) and  (A2), if $\bar{d}<0$ and
$\inf_{t\in \overline{R}_{+}}\{a(t)-b(t+\tau)-c^{u}\}\geq 0$, the
population $x(t)$ will go  extinct. That is to say, if
assumption (A1) and  (A2) hold and
$\inf_{t\in \overline{R}_{+}}\{a(t)-b(t+\tau)-c^{u}\}\geq 0$, then
$\bar{d}$ is the threshold between weak persistence and extinction
for the population $x(t)$.
\end{remark}

\begin{remark} \label{rmk3.2} \rm
With $\bar{d}=\limsup_{t \to+\infty}t^{-1}\int_0^{t}\big(r(s)
-\frac{\sigma_{1}^2(s)}{2}\big)ds$
in Theorem \ref{thm3.1}--\ref{thm3.3}, we note that the stochastic noise on
$r(t)$ is detrimental to the survival of the population but the
stochastic noise on $a(t)$ has little effect on the persistence
or extinction of the population. Thus, in true ecological modeling,
the stochastic noise on $r(t)$ should be considered, but the stochastic
noise on $a(t)$ could be overlooked in some cases.
\end{remark}

\begin{remark} \label{rmk3.3} \rm
From Theorem \ref{thm3.1}--\ref{thm3.3}, we found that the delay
has no effect on the persistence and extinction of the stochastic
model in autonomous case.
\end{remark}

\begin{remark} \label{rmk3.4} \rm
If $b(t)\leq 0$ and $c(t)\leq 0$ hold, then the condition
$\inf_{t\in \overline{R}_{+}}\{a(t)-b(t+\tau)-c^{u}\}\geq 0$ in
Theorem \ref{thm3.1}--\ref{thm3.2} can be omitted.
\end{remark}

\begin{remark} \label{rmk3.5} \rm
Liu and Wang \cite{Liu11a} studied the persistence and extinction of
two stochastic logistic model. Our work extends their  results
to stochastic population with infinite delay.

\section{Examples and numerical simulations}

In this section, we explore the behavior of the model \eqref{e1.2}
using numerical solutions . For convenience, we let the probability
measure $\mu(\theta)$ be $e^{\theta}$ on $(-\infty, 0]$. So the
model \eqref{e1.2} will be written as
\begin{equation}\label{e4.1}
\begin{aligned}
 dx(t)&= x(t)\Big[r(t)-a(t)x(t)+b(t)x(t-\tau)
 +c(t)e^{-t}\int_{-\infty}^{0}e^{s}\xi(s)ds\\
&\quad +c(t)e^{-t}\int_0^{t}e^{s}x(s)ds\Big]dt
 +\sigma_{1}(t) x(t)dw_{1}(t)+\sigma_{2}(t) x^2(t)dw_{2}(t).
\end{aligned}
\end{equation}
By employing the Euler scheme to discretize this equation, where the
integral term is approximated by using the composite
$\mathscr{K}$-rule as a quadrature \cite{Song04} and taking the
initial values as $\xi(s)=e^{-0.5s}$, $\tau=0.8$.  We obtain the
discrete approximate solution
\begin{align*}
x_{k+1}
&= x_{k}+x_{k}\Big[r(k\Delta t)-a(k\Delta t)x_{k}+b(k\Delta
t)x_{k-800}+c(k\Delta t)e^{-k\Delta t}\int_{-\infty}^{0}e^{0.5\theta}d\theta\\
&\quad +c(k\Delta t)e^{-k\Delta t}\sum_{j=0}^{k}\omega_{j}^{(k)}
 e^{j\Delta t}x_{j}\Big]\Delta t+x_{k}(\Delta B_{1})_{k}+x^2_{k}
 (\Delta B_{2})_{k},
\end{align*}
where $(\Delta B_i)_{k}=B_i((k+1)\Delta t)-B_i(k\Delta t)$,
$k=0,1,2,\dots$, $i=1,2$. The general composite
$\mathscr{K}$-rule has weights
$$
\{\omega_0^{(k)},\omega_{1}^{(k)},\dots,\omega_{k}^{(k)}\}
=\{\mathscr{K},1,\dots,1-{\mathscr{K}}\}, \quad \mathscr{K}\in [0,1]
$$
and $\sum_{j=0}^{k}\omega_{j}^{(k)}=k$, $k\geq 0$.

Here, we choose $r(t)=0.2+0.02\sin t$, $a(t)=0.09$, $b(t)=0.01$,
$c(t)=0.005$, $\sigma_{2}(t)=0.08$, $\mathscr{K}=0$ and step size
$\Delta t=0.001$. The only difference between conditions of
Figure .1(a),
Figure \ref{fig1}(b), Figure \ref{fig1}(c) and Figure \ref{fig1}(d)
is that the representations of
$\sigma_{1}(t)$ are different. In Figure \ref{fig1}(a), we choose
$\sigma_{1}^2(t)\equiv 0.5$, then $\bar{d}=-0.05$. In view of
Theorem \ref{thm3.1}, population $x(t)$ will go to extinction.
In Figure \ref{fig1}(b),
we consider $\sigma_{1}^2(t)= 0.4+0.01\sin t$, then $\bar{d}=0$.
By  Theorem \ref{thm3.2}, population $x(t)$ will be nonpersistent in
the mean. In Figure \ref{fig1}(c), we choose $\sigma_{1}^2(t)\equiv 0.38$,
then $\bar{d}=0.01>0$. From Theorem \ref{thm3.3}, the population $x(t)$ will
be weakly persistent. In Figure \ref{fig1}(d), we consider
$\sigma_{1}^2(t)\equiv 0.32$, then
$(r(t)-\frac{\sigma^2_{1}(t)}{2})_{*}=0.02>0$. 
Using Theorem \ref{thm3.4}, the population $x(t)$ will be stochastic
permanence. By using numerical simulations, we  find that the
stochastic noise on $r(t)$ can change the properties of the
population models significantly.

\subsection*{Conclusions and future directions}
In the real world, the natural growth of population is
inevitably affected by stochastic disturbances. In this paper, a
stochastic logistic model with infinite delay is proposed and
analyzed. With space $C_{g}$ as phase space, sufficient conditions
for extinction are established and nonpersistent in the mean, weak
persistence and stochastic permanence. Furthermore, we obtain the
threshold between weak persistence and extinction.

Some interesting topics merit further consideration. It is
interesting to study what happens if $c(t)$ is stochastic. Another
significant problem is devoted to multidimensional stochastic model
with infinite delay, and these investigations are in progress.
