Global stability of epidemic models with uniform susceptibility

Abstract

Transmission dynamics of infectious diseases are often studied using compartmental mathematical models, which are commonly represented as systems of autonomous ordinary differential equations. A key step in the analysis of such models is to identify equilibria and find conditions for their stability. Local stability analysis reduces to a problem in linear algebra, but there is no general algorithm for establishing global …
