This paper is concerned with a nonlocal dispersal susceptible–infected–recovered (SIR) epidemic model adopted with the mass action infection mechanism. We mainly study the existence and non-existence of traveling waves connecting the infection-free equilibrium state and the endemic equilibrium state. The main difficulties lie in the fact that the semiflow generated here does not admit the order-preserving property. Meanwhile, this new model brings some new challenges due to the unboundedness of the nonlinear term. We overcome these difficulties to obtain the boundedness of traveling waves with the speed $c>c_{\min}$ by some analysis techniques firstly and then prove the existence of traveling waves by employing Lyapunov–LaSalle theorem and Lebesgue dominated convergence theorem. By utilizing a approximating method, we study the existence of traveling waves with the critical wave speed $c_{\min}$. Our results on this new model may provide some implications on disease modelling and controls.

Abstract This paper studies the traveling waves in a nonlocal dispersal SIR epidemic model with nonlinear incidence and distributed latent delay. It is found that the traveling waves connecting the disease-free equilibrium with endemic equilibrium are determined by the basic reproduction number $\mathcal{R}_{0}$ R 0 and the minimal wave speed $c^{*}$ c ∗ . When $\mathcal{R}_{0}>1$ R 0 > 1 and $c>c^{*}$ c > c ∗ , the existence of traveling waves is established by using the upper-lower solutions, auxiliary system, constructing the solution map, and then the fixed point theorem, limiting argument, diagonal extraction method, and Lyapunov functions. When $\mathcal{R}_{0}>1$ R 0 > 1 and $0< c< c^{*}$ 0 < c < c ∗ , the nonexistence result is also obtained by using the reduction to absurdity and the theory of asymptotic spreading.

<abstract><p>This paper is about the existence of traveling wave solutions for a delayed nonlocal dispersal SIR epidemic model with the critical wave speed. Because of the introduction of nonlocal dispersal and the generality of incidence function, it is difficult to investigate the existence of critical traveling waves. To this end, we construct an auxiliary system and show the existence of traveling waves for the auxiliary system. Employing the results for the auxiliary system, we obtain the existence of traveling waves for the delayed nonlocal dispersal SIR epidemic model with the critical wave speed under mild conditions.</p></abstract>
