Global stability for a class of discrete SIR epidemic models

Abstract: 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.

“…By Perron–Frobenius theorem, there exists a positive principal eigenvector ω =( ω 1 , ω 2 ,⋯, ω m ) such that ω k >0 for k =1,2,⋯, m and ω · ρ ( M 0 )= ω · M 0 . Consider the following Lyapunov function: Ln=k=1mωkh(dkI+ϵk+γk)[SknSk0Sk0Sknfk(Sk0)fk(η)dη+(1+h(dkI+ϵk+γk))Ikn]. Applying Lemma 4.1 in and (H1) , we obtain x1x21fk(s)dsx2x1fk(x2),x1,x2>0,fork=1,2,,m. Note that gj(I)gj(0)I for all I >0. Then, the difference of L n is …”

“… pointed out that how to choose the discrete schemes that preserve the global asymptotic stability for equilibria of the corresponding continuous‐time epidemic models was still an open problem. Recently, researchers have used nonstandard finite difference (NSFD) scheme, which was developed by Mickens , to investigate the global stability of the corresponding continuous models (for example, Ding and Ding , Enatsu et al , Hattaf and Yousfi , Liu et al . , Sekiguchi and Ishiwata , and Yang et al .…”

“…malaria, tuberculosis, etc. It is pointed out in [14,15] that discretetime epidemic models are much better as compared to continuous ones because discrete-time models allow arbitrary time-step units, preserving the basic features of corresponding continuous-time models. Moreover, in case of discrete-time models, we can use statistical data for numerical simulations because infection data are computed at discrete-time.…”

“…There is a basic reason that the statistical data of epidemic are collected or reported in discrete time, such as hourly, weekly or yearly. More importantly, we can exhibit more richer and complicated dynamical behaviors in the discrete-time models such as generating oscillations, bifurcations, chaos, see [11,12,28]. A well known method is referred to as the non-standard finite difference method, which is developed by Mickens [14][15][16] and has brought the creation of new numerical schemes that preserve the properties of the continuous model [17,18].…”
