Global stability for a class of discrete SIR epidemic models by Yoichi Enatsu, Yukihiko Nakata, Yoshiaki Muroya

“…In this paper, we propose a class of discrete SIR epidemic models which are derived from SIR epidemic models with distributed delays by using a variation of the backward Euler method.Applying a Lyapunov functional technique, it is shown that the global dynamics of each discrete SIR epidemic model are fully determined by a single threshold parameter and the effect of discrete time delays are harmless for the global stability of the endemic equilibrium of the model.…”

Bifurcation analysis of a discrete SIS model with bilinear incidence depending on new infection by Hui Cao, Yicang Zhou, Zhien Ma

“…A discrete SIS epidemic model with the bilinear incidence depending on the new infection is formulated and studied.The condition for the global stability of the disease free equilibrium is obtained.The existence of the endemic equilibrium and its stability are investigated.More attention is paid to the existence of the saddle-node bifurcation, the flip bifurcation, and the Hopf bifurcation.Sufficient conditions for those bifurcations have been obtained.Numerical simulations are conducted to demonstrate our theoretical results and the complexity of the model.…”
