Stability of a Delayed Stochastic Epidemic COVID-19 Model with Vaccination and with Differential Susceptibility

In this paper, we treat the spread of COVID-19 using a delayed stochastic SVIRS (Susceptible, Infected, Recovered, Susceptible) epidemic model with a general incidence rate and differential susceptibility. We start with a deterministic model, then add random perturbations on the contact rate using white noise to obtain a stochastic model. We first show that the delayed stochastic differential equation that describes the model has a unique global positive solution for any positive initial value. Under the condition R0 ≤ 1, we prove the almost sure asymptotic stability of the disease-free equilibrium of the model.

This paper focuses on the analytical and numerical asymptotical stability of neutral reaction-diffusion equations with piecewise continuous arguments.First,for the analytical solutions of the equations,we derive their expressions and asymptotical stability criteria.Second,for the semi-discrete and one-parameter fully-discrete finite element methods solving the above equations,we work out the sufficient conditions for assuring that the finite element solutions are asymptotically stable.Finally,with a typical example with numerical experiments,we illustrate the applicability of the obtained theoretical results.

The Stochastic Asymptotic Stability Analysis in Two Species Lotka-Volterra Model

The asymptotic stability of two species stochastic Lotka-Volterra model is explored in this paper. Firstly, the Lotka-Volterra model with random parameter is built and reduced into the equivalent deterministic system by orthogonal polynomial approximation. Then, the linear stability theory and Routh-Hurwitz criterion for nonlinear deterministic systems are applied to the equivalent one. At last, at the aid of Lyapunov second method, we obtain that as the random intensity or statistical parameter of random variable is changed, the stability about stochastic Lotka-Volterra model is different from the deterministic system.

On the Asymptotic Stability of Discrete Crocodilians Model

The sex ratio of crocodiles is strongly biased towards females, often as high as 10 females to 1 male. In crocodilians, the temperature of egg incubation is the environmental factor determining sex. If the temperature is low, around 30˚C, the hatchlings are all females. Higher temperature, around 34˚C, hatch all males. This study was made to consider the asymptotic stability of a positive equilibrium point in a nonlinear discrete model of the basic nesting population model, which is described in three-region depending on the temperature of egg incubation. This model is based on key life-historical data and Murray’s research. To study above, we have applied the classical linearization method and P. Cull’s method and moreover, we employ non-standard discretization methods for later our Equations (6)-(8) and (15).

Adaptive Sensor-Fault Tolerant Control of Unmanned Underwater Vehicles With Input Saturation

This paper investigates the tracking control problem for unmanned underwater vehicles(UUVs)systems with sensor faults,input saturation,and external disturbance caused by waves and ocean currents.An active sensor fault-tolerant control scheme is proposed.First,the developed method only requires the inertia matrix of the UUV,without other dynamic information,and can handle both additive and multiplicative sensor faults.Subsequently,an adaptive fault-tolerant controller is designed to achieve asymptotic tracking control of the UUV by employing robust integral of the sign of error feedback method.It is shown that the effect of sensor faults is online estimated and compensated by an adaptive estimator.With the proposed controller,the tracking error and estimation error can asymptotically converge to zero.Finally,simulation results are performed to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

GLOBAL STABILITY OF AN SIRS EPIDEMIC MODEL WITH DELAYS

In this article, an SIRS epidemic model spread by vectors （mosquitoes） which have an incubation time to become infectious is formulated. It is shown that a disease-free equilibrium point is globally stable if no endemic equilibrium point exists. Further, the endemic equilibrium point （if it exists） is globally stable with a respect ＂weak delay＂. Some known results are generalized.

GLOBAL ASYMPTOTIC STABILITY IN N-SPECIES NONAUTONOMOUS LOTKA-VOLTERRACOMPETITIVE SYSTEMS WITH DELAYS

A delayed n-species nonautonomous Lotka-Volterra type competitive system without dominating instantaneous negative feedback is investigated. By means of a suitable Lyapunov functional, sufficient conditions are derived for the global asymptotic stability of the positive solutions of the system. As a corollary, it is shown that the global asymptotic stability of the positive solution is maintained provided that the delayed negative feedbacks dominate other interspecific interaction effects with delays and the delays are sufficiently small.

Stability of singular networked control systems with control constraint

Based on bounded network-induced time-delay, the networked control system is modeled as a linear time-variant singular system. Using the Lyapunov theory and the linear matrix inequality approach, the criteria for delay-independent stability and delay-dependent stability of singular networked control systems are derived and transformed to a feasibility problem of linear matrix inequality formulation, which can be solved by the Matlab LMI toolbox, and the feasible solutions provide the maximum allowable delay bound that makes the system stable. A numerical example is provided, which shows that the analysis method is valid and the stability criteria are feasible.

GLOBAL STABILITY OF EXTENDED MULTI-GROUP SIR EPIDEMIC MODELS WITH PATCHES THROUGH MIGRATION AND CROSS PATCH INFECTION

In this article, we establish the global stability of an endemic equilibrium of multi-group SIR epidemic models, which have not only an exchange of individuals between patches through migration but also cross patch infection between different groups. As a result, we partially generalize the recent result in the article [16].

GLOBAL STABILITY OF SIRS EPIDEMIC MODELS WITH A CLASS OF NONLINEAR INCIDENCE RATES AND DISTRIBUTED DELAYS

In this article, we establish the global asymptotic stability of a disease-free equilibrium and an endemic equilibrium of an SIRS epidemic model with a class of nonlin- ear incidence rates and distributed delays. By using strict monotonicity of the incidence function and constructing a Lyapunov functional, we obtain sufficient conditions under which the endemic equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable. When the nonlinear inci- dence rate is a saturated incidence rate, our result provides a new global stability condition for a small rate of immunity loss.

Impulsive control of stochastic system under the sense of stochastic asymptotical stability

This paper studies the stochastic asymptotical stability of stochastic impulsive differential equations, and establishes a comparison theory to ensure the trivial solution＇s stochastic asymptotical stability. From the comparison theory, it can find out whether the stochastic impulsive differential system is stable just by studying the stability of a deterministic comparison system. As a general application of this theory, it controls the chaos of stochastic Lii system using impulsive control method, and numerical simulations are employed to verify the feasibility of this method.

Global stability of Cohen-Grossberg neural networks with time-varying and distributed delays

In this paper, the global asymptotic stability is investigated for a class of Cohen-Grossberg neural networks with time-varying and distributed delays. By using the Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional and equivalent descriptor form of the considered system, several delay-dependent sufficient conditions are obtained to guarantee the asymptotic stability of the addressed systems. These conditions are dependent on both time-varying and distributed delays and presented in terms of LMIs and therefore, the stability criteria of such systems can be checked readily by resorting to the Matlab LMI toolbox. Finally, an example is given to show the effectiveness and less conservatism of the proposed methods.

Asymptotical stability analysis of linear fractional differential systems

It has been recently found that many models were established with the aid of fractional derivatives, such as viscoelastic systems, colored noise, electrode-electrolyte polarization, dielectric polarization, boundary layer effects in ducts, electromagnetic waves, quantitative finance, quantum evolution of complex systems, and fractional kinetics. In this paper, the asymptotical stability of higher-dimensional linear fractional differential systems with the Riemann-Liouville fractional order and Caputo fractional order were studied. The asymptotical stability theorems were also derived.

STABILITY ANALYSIS FOR LINEAR DELAY DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS AND NUMERICAL EXAMPLES

The asymptotic stability of delay differential equation x′(t)=Ax(t)+Bx(t τ) is concerned with,where A,B∈C d×d are constant complex matrices, x(t τ)=(x 1(t-τ 1),x 2(t-τ 2),...,x d(t-τ d))T,τ k>0(k=1,...,d) stand for constant delays. Two criteria through evaluation of a harmonic function on the boundary of a certain region are obtained. The similar results for neutral delay differential equation x′(t)=Lx(t)+Mx(t-τ)+Nx′(t-τ) are also obtained,where L,M and N∈C d×d are constant complex matrices and τ>0 stands for constant delay. Numerical examples are showed to check the results which are more general than those already reported.
