In this paper, we study the dynamics of deterministic and stochastic models for a predator-prey, where the predator species is subject to an SIS form of parasitic infection. The deterministic model is a system of ordinary differential equations for a predator-prey model with disease in the predator only. The existence and local stability of the boundary equilibria and the uniform persistence for the ODE model are investigated. Based on these results, some threshold values for successful invasion of disease or prey species are obtained. A new stochastic model is derived in the form of continuous-time Markov chains. Branching process theory is applied to the continuous-time Markov chain models to estimate the probabilities for disease outbreak or prey species invasion. The deterministic and stochastic threshold theories are compared and some relationships between the deterministic and stochastic thresholds are derived. Finally, some numerical simulations are introduced to illustrate the main results and to highlight some of the differences between the deterministic and stochastic models.
