Mathematical analysis of Lassa fever epidemic with real data by Adnan Aslam, Takasar Hussain, Muhammad Ozair, Arfah Hafeez, Wedad Albalawi, Mohammed Zakarya, Nadir Omer

“…First, we compute the equilibrium point in which no disease exists then, after finding the reproduction number, both types of stabilities, local and global, of this equilibrium point is discussed. Endemic equilibrium is calculated and it is noted that stability of infection free equilibrium point is replaced by local stability of endemic equilibrium when basic reproduction number exceeds unity, so bifurcation occurs. …”

Global dynamics of a general class of multi-group epidemic models with latency and relapse by Xiaomei Feng, Zhidong Teng, Fengqin Zhang

“….$ In particular, a matrix-theoretic method is used to provethe global stability of the disease-free equilibrium when $R_0\leq1,$while a new combinatorial identity (Theorem 3.3 in Shuai and vanden Driessche [29]) in graph theory is applied to provethe global stability of the endemic equilibrium when $R_0>1.$We would like to mention that by applying the new combinatorial identity, a graph of 3n (or 2n+m) vertices can be converted intoa graph of n vertices in order to deal with the global stability of the endemic equilibrium in this paper.…”
