$R_0$ and the global behavior of an age-structured SIS epidemic model with periodicity and vertical transmission
In this paper, we study an age-structured SIS epidemic model with periodicity and vertical transmission. We show that the spectral radius of the Fréchet derivative of a nonlinear integral operator plays the role of a threshold value for the global behavior of the model, that is, if the value is less...
