A novel mathematical delay model for simultaneous infection of HIV and hepatitis C virus is formulated and dynamically analyzed. Basic properties of the model are established and proved. Basic reproductive threshold is systematically calculated as the maximum of three subthreshold parameters. A disease free equilibrium is determined to be globally asymptotically stable for all values of the delay when the threshold is less than unity. However, when the threshold is greater than one, endemic equilibrium emerged which is shown to be locally asymptotically stable for any length of delay. Although the delay has no effect on stabilities of equilibria points, however, it is found to reduce the infectivity of the viruses as the length of the delay is increased. Epidemiological interpretations of the results and numerical simulations illustrating them are given.

In this paper a mosquito-borne parasitic infection model in periodic environment is considered. Threshold parameterR0is given by linear next infection operator, which determined the dynamic behaviors of system. We obtain that whenR0<1, the disease-free periodic solution is globally asymptotically stable and whenR0>1by Poincaré map we obtain that disease is uniformly persistent. Numerical simulations support the results and sensitivity analysis shows effects of parameters onR0, which provided references to seek optimal measures to control the transmission of lymphatic filariasis.

In this paper, a diffusive hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection model with a discrete time delay is presented and analyzed, where the spatial mobility of both intracellular capsid covered HBV DNA and HBV and the intracellular delay in the reproduction of infected hepatocytes are taken into account. We define the basic reproduction number [Formula: see text] that determines the dynamical behavior of the model. The local and global stability of the spatially homogeneous steady states are analyzed by using the linearization technique and the direct Lyapunov method, respectively. It is shown that the susceptible uninfected steady state is globally asymptotically stable whenever [Formula: see text] and is unstable whenever [Formula: see text]. Also, the infected steady state is globally asymptotically stable when [Formula: see text]. Finally, numerical simulations are carried out to illustrate the results obtained.

A new epidemiological model is introduced with nonlinear incidence, in which the infected disease may lose infectiousness and then evolves to a chronic noninfectious disease when the infected disease has not been cured for a certain timeτ. The existence, uniqueness, and stability of the disease-free equilibrium and endemic equilibrium are discussed. The basic reproductive numberR0is given. The model is studied in two cases: with and without time delay. For the model without time delay, the disease-free equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable provided thatR0≤1; ifR0>1, then there exists a unique endemic equilibrium, and it is globally asymptotically stable. For the model with time delay, a sufficient condition is given to ensure that the disease-free equilibrium is locally asymptotically stable. Hopf bifurcation in endemic equilibrium with respect to the timeτis also addressed.

By means of asymptotically stable theory and infection model theory of ordinary differential equation, we do research on SIQS model with nonlinear and isolation. Firstly, we obtain the existence of threshold value R0 of disease-free equilibration point and local disease equilibration point. Secondly, we prove disease-free equilibration point is locally asymptotically stable when R0 < 1, and local disease equilibration point is locally asymptotically stable when R0 > 1. Furthermore, we have disease-free equilibration point and local disease equilibration point are globally asymptotically stable with the help of Liapunov function. Lastly, we explain at the point of biology.

We focused on the gene regulative network involving Rb-E2F pathway and microRNAs (miR449) and studied the influence of time delay on the dynamical behaviors of Rb-E2F pathway by using Hopf bifurcation theory. It is shown that under certain assumptions the steady state of the delay model is asymptotically stable for all delay values; there is a critical value under another set of conditions; the steady state is stable when the time delay is less than the critical value, while the steady state is changed to be unstable when the time delay is greater than the critical value. Thus, Hopf bifurcation appears at the steady state when the delay passes through the critical value. Numerical simulations were presented to illustrate the theoretical results.

An epidemic model with time delay has been proposed and analyzed. In this model the effect of awareness programs driven by media on the prevalence of an infectious disease is studied. It is assumed that pathogens are transmitted via direct contact between the susceptible and the infective populations and further assumed that the growth rate of cumulative density of awareness programs increases at a rate proportional to the infective population. The model is analyzed by using stability theory of differential equations and numerical simulations. Both equilibria have been proved to be globally asymptotically stable. The results we obtained and numerical simulations suggest the increasing of the dissemination rate and implementation rate can reduce the proportion of the infective population.

In this paper, we study the dynamics of a fractional-order epidemic model with general nonlinear incidence rate functionals and time-delay. We investigate the local and global stability of the steady-states. We deduce the basic reproductive threshold parameter, so that if R0<1, the disease-free steady-state is locally and globally asymptotically stable. However, for R0>1, there exists a positive (endemic) steady-state which is locally and globally asymptotically stable. A Holling type III response function is considered in the numerical simulations to illustrate the effectiveness of the theoretical results.

In this work a deterministic and stochastic model is developed and used to investigate the transmission dynamics of chicken pox. The models involve the Susceptible, Vaccinated, Exposed, Infectious and Recovered individuals. In the deterministic model the Disease free Equilibrium is computed and proved to be globally asymptotically stable when R0 < 1. The deterministic model is transformed into a stochastic model which was solved using the Euler Maruyama method. Numerical simulations of the stochastic Model show that as the vaccine rate wanes, the number of individuals susceptible to the chicken pox epidemic increases.

In this paper, the aim is to analyze the global dynamics of Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) cellular mathematical model under therapy with uninfected hepatocytes proliferation. We prove that the solution of the model with positive initial values are global, positive and bounded. In addition, firstly we show that the model is locally asymptotically stable at free virus equilibrium and also at infected equilibrium. Secondly we show that the model is globally asymptotically stable at the free virus equilibrium by using an appropriate lyapunov function.
