e idea of action threshold depends on the pest density and its change rate is more general and furthermore can produce new modelling techniques related to integrated pest management (IPM) as compared with those that appeared in earlier studies, which definitely bring challenges to analytical analysis and generate new ideas to the state control measures. Keeping this in mind, using the strategies of IPM, we develop a prey-predator system with action threshold depending on the pest density and its change rate, and study its dynamical behavior. We develop new criteria guaranteeing the existence, uniqueness, local and global stability of order-1 periodic solutions. Applying the properties of Lambert function, the Poincaré map is portrayed for the exact phase set, which is helpful to provide the sufficient conditions for the existence and stability of the interior order-1 periodic solutions and boundary order-1 periodic solution, also confirmed by numerical simulations. It is studied in detail that how and under what conditions the fixed point of Poincaré map and its stability are affected by the newly introduced action threshold. e analytical methods developed in this paper will be very beneficial to study other generalized models with state-dependent feedback control.Hindawi is a trajectory tangent to curve Γ at point 푆 = 푥 , 푦 , Γ 2 is a trajectory tangent to curve Γ at point 푇 = 푥 , 푦 , Γ 3 is homoclinic trajectory which touches curve Γ at two points 푥 1 , 푦 1 and 푥 2 , 푦 2 , and its upper and lower right branches touch curve Γ at points 푄 1 = 푥 푄 1 , 푦 푄 1 and 푄 2 = 푥 푄 2 , 푦 푄 2 , respectively.3 Discrete Dynamics in Nature and Society weighted parameters on the fixed point of Poincaré map.

Whether the integrated control measures are applied or not depends not only on the current density of pest population, but also on its current growth rate, and this undoubtedly brings challenges and new ideas to the state control measures that only rely on the pest density. To address this, utilizing the tactics of IPM, we constructed a Lotka-Volterra predator-prey system with action threshold depending on the pest density and its changing rate and examined its dynamical behavior. We present new criteria guaranteeing the existence, uniqueness, and global stability of periodic solutions. With the help of Lambert W function, the Poincaré map is constructed for the phase set, which can help us to provide the satisfactory conditions for the existence and stability of the semitrivial periodic solution and interior order-1 periodic solutions. Furthermore, the existence of order-2 and nonexistence of order-k(k≥3) periodic solutions are discussed. The idea of action threshold depending on the pest density and its changing rate is more general and can generate new remarkable directions as well compared with those represented in earlier studies. The analytical techniques developed in this paper can play a significant role in analyzing the impulsive models with complex phase set or impulsive set.

The hepatitis B infection is a global epidemic disease which is a huge risk to the public health. In this paper, the transmission dynamics of hepatitis B deterministic model are presented and studied. The basic reproduction number is attained and by applying it, the local as well as global stability of disease-free and endemic equilibria of continuous hepatitis B deterministic model are discussed. To better understand the dynamics of the disease, the discrete nonstandard finite difference (NSFD) scheme is produced for the continuous model. Different criteria are employed to check the local and global stability of disease-free and endemic equilibria for the NSFD scheme. Our findings demonstrate that the NSFD scheme is convergent for all step sizes and consequently reasonable in all respect for the continuous deterministic epidemic model. All the aforementioned properties and their effects are also proved numerically at each stage to show their mathematical as well as biological feasibility. The theoretical and numerical findings used in this paper can be employed as a helpful tool for predicting the transmission of other infectious diseases.

In the present paper, the SIR model with nonlinear recovery and Monod type equation as incidence rates is proposed and analyzed. The expression for basic reproduction number is obtained which plays a main role in the stability of disease-free and endemic equilibria. The nonstandard finite difference (NSFD) scheme is constructed for the model and the denominator function is chosen such that the suggested scheme ensures solutions boundedness. It is shown that the NSFD scheme does not depend on the step size and gives better results in all respects. To prove the local stability of disease-free equilibrium point, the Jacobean method is used; however, Schur–Cohn conditions are applied to discuss the local stability of the endemic equilibrium point for the discrete NSFD scheme. The Enatsu criterion and Lyapunov function are employed to prove the global stability of disease-free and endemic equilibria. Numerical simulations are also presented to discuss the advantages of NSFD scheme as well as to strengthen the theoretical results. Numerical simulations specify that the NSFD scheme preserves the important properties of the continuous model. Consequently, they can produce estimates which are entirely according to the solutions of the model.
