In this paper, we study the traveling wave solutions for a nonlocal dispersal SIR epidemic model with standard incidence rate and nonlocal delayed transmission. The existence and nonexistence of traveling wave solutions are determined by the basic reproduction number of the corresponding reaction system and the minimal wave speed. To prove these results, we apply the Schauder’s fixed point theorem and two-sided Laplace transform. The main difficulties are that the complexity of the incidence rate in the epidemic model and the lack of regularity for nonlocal dispersal operator.

This paper is concerned with the traveling wave solutions for a discrete SIR epidemic model with a saturated incidence rate. We show that the existence and non-existence of the traveling wave solutions are determined by the basic reproduction number [Formula: see text] of the corresponding ordinary differential system and the minimal wave speed [Formula: see text]. More specifically, we first prove the existence of the traveling wave solutions for [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] via considering a truncated initial value problem and using the Schauder’s fixed point theorem. The existence of the traveling wave solutions with speed [Formula: see text] is then proved by using a limiting argument. The main difficulty is to show that the limit of a decreasing sequence of the traveling wave solutions with super-critical speeds is non-trivial. Finally, the non-existence of the traveling wave solutions for [Formula: see text] [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] [Formula: see text] is proved.

This paper is concerned with the minimal wave speed in a diffusive epidemic model with nonlocal delays. We define a threshold. By presenting the existence and the nonexistence of traveling wave solutions for all positive wave speed, we confirm that the threshold is the minimal wave speed of traveling wave solutions, which models that the infective invades the habitat of the susceptible. For some cases, it is proven that spatial nonlocality may increase the propagation threshold while time delay decreases the threshold.

We investigate a stochastic SIR epidemic model with specific nonlinear incidence rate. The stochastic model is derived from the deterministic epidemic model by introducing random perturbations around the endemic equilibrium state. The effect of random perturbations on the stability behavior of endemic equilibrium is discussed. Finally, numerical simulations are presented to illustrate our theoretical results.
