Lyapunov functions for SIR and SIRS epidemic models
The authors consider the planar system \[ \begin{aligned} {dI\over dt} &= (q-\beta I-\beta R)I,\\ {dR\over dt} &= \gamma I-\omega R\end{aligned}\tag{\(*\)} \] related to epidemic models. Let \(Q_*= (I_*, R_*)\) be a positive equilibrium of \((*)\). It is shown that \[ U(I,R):= I- I_*\ln I+ a(R- R_*)^2 \] with \(a:= \beta/2\gamma> 0\) is a Lyapunov ...

Stability and Immune Control Strategy of SIR Scale-free Network Model
In order to study the effect of the vaccine immunization and the individual immigration on the spread behaviors of the SIR epidemic,the SIR epidemic model for complex networks is constructed. The equilibrium stability of complex networks with homogeneous

Optimal vaccination in a stochastic epidemic model of two non-interacting populations [PDF]
Developing robust, quantitative methods to optimize resource allocations in response to epidemics has the potential to save lives and minimize health care costs. In this paper, we develop and apply a computationally efficient algorithm that enables us to

Analysis of SIR Epidemic Models with Sociological Phenomenon
We propose two SIR models which incorporate sociological behavior of groups of individuals. It is these differences in behaviors which impose different infection rates on the individual susceptible populations, rather than biological differences. We compute the basic reproduction number for each model, as well as analyze the sensitivity of $R_0$ to ...

Epidemic cycling in a multi-strain SIRS epidemic network model [PDF]
One common observation in infectious diseases caused by multi-strain pathogens is that both the incidence of all infections and the relative fraction of infection with each strain oscillate with time (i.e., so-called Epidemic cycling). Many different mechanisms have been proposed for the pervasive nature of epidemic cycling. Nevertheless, the two facts

Approximate and Parametric Solutions to SIR Epidemic Model
This article provides a detailed exploration of the SIR epidemic model, starting with its meticulous formulation. The study employs a novel approach called the upper and lower bounds technique to approximate the solution to the SIR model, providing ...

Network-based analysis of stochastic SIR epidemic models with random and proportionate mixing
In this paper, we outline the theory of epidemic percolation networks and their use in the analysis of stochastic SIR epidemic models on undirected contact networks.

The deterministic Kermack-McKendrick model bounds the general stochastic epidemic [PDF]
We prove that, for Poisson transmission and recovery processes, the classic Susceptible $\to$ Infected $\to$ Recovered (SIR) epidemic model of Kermack and McKendrick provides, for any given time $t>0$, a strict lower bound on the expected number of ...
