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.

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.

Global Stability for a Asymptotically Periodic Cooperative Lotka-Volterra System with Time Delays

In this paper a class of cooperative Lotka-Volterra population system with time delay is considered. Some sufficient conditions on the existence and globally asymptotically stability for the asymptotically periodic solution of the system are established by using the Lyapunov function method and the method given in Fengying Wei and Wang Ke (Applied Mathematics and Computation 182 (2006) 161-165).

Global Stability and Hopf Bifurcation for a Virus Dynamics Model with General Incidence Rate and Delayed CTL Immune Response

In this work, we investigate an HIV-1 infection model with a general incidence rate and delayed CTL immune response. The model admits three possible equilibria, an infection-free equilibrium E*0, CTL-inactivated infection equilibrium E*1 and CTL-activated infection equilibrium E*2. We prove that in the absence of CTL immune delay, the model has exactly the basic behaviour model, for all positive intracellular delays, the global dynamics are determined by two threshold parameters R0 and R1, if R0 ≤ 1, E*0 is globally asymptotically stable, if R1 ≤ 1 < R0, E*1 is globally asymptotically stable and if R1 >1, E*2 is globally asymptotically stable. But if the CTL immune response delay is different from zero, then the behaviour of the model at E*2 changes completely, although R1 > 1, a Hopf bifurcation at E*2 is established. In the end, we present some numerical simulations.

Position Measurement Based Slave Torque Feedback Control for Teleoperation Systems With Time-Varying Communication Delays

Bilateral teleoperation system is referred to as a promising technology to extend human actions and intelligence to manipulating objects remotely.For the tracking control of teleoperation systems,velocity measurements are necessary to provide feedback information.However,due to hardware technology and cost constraints,the velocity measurements are not always available.In addition,the time-varying communication delay makes it challenging to achieve tracking task.This paper provides a solution to the issue of real-time tracking for teleoperation systems,subjected to unavailable velocity signals and time-varying communication delays.In order to estimate the velocity information,immersion and invariance(I&I)technique is employed to develop an exponential stability velocity observer.For the proposed velocity observer,a linear relationship between position and observation state is constructed,through which the need of solving partial differential and certain integral equations can be avoided.Meanwhile,the mean value theorem is exploited to separate the observation error terms,and hence,all functions in our observer can be analytically expressed.With the estimated velocity information,a slave-torque feedback control law is presented.A novel Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional is constructed to establish asymptotic tracking conditions.In particular,the relationship between the controller design parameters and the allowable maximum delay values is provided.Finally,simulation and experimental results reveal that the proposed velocity observer and controller can guarantee that the observation errors and tracking error converge to zero.

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.

Global Stability Analysis of a Delayed SEIQR Epidemic Model with Quarantine and Latent

In this paper, we study a kind of the delayed SEIQR infectious disease model with the quarantine and latent, and get the threshold value which determines the global dynamics and the outcome of the disease. The model has a disease-free equilibrium which is unstable when the basic reproduction number is greater than unity. At the same time, it has a unique endemic equilibrium when the basic reproduction number is greater than unity. According to the mathematical dynamics analysis, we show that disease-free equilibrium and endemic equilibrium are locally asymptotically stable by using Hurwitz criterion and they are globally asymptotically stable by using suitable Lyapunov functions for any Besides, the SEIQR model with nonlinear incidence rate is studied, and the that the basic reproduction number is a unity can be found out. Finally, numerical simulations are performed to illustrate and verify the conclusions that will be useful for us to control the spread of infectious diseases. Meanwhile, the will effect changing trends of in system (1), which is obvious in simulations. Here, we take as an example to explain that.

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.

Stability analysis of Markovian jumping stochastic Cohen Grossberg neural networks with discrete and distributed time varying delays

In this paper, the global asymptotic stability problem of Markovian jumping stochastic Cohen-Grossberg neural networks with discrete and distributed time-varying delays （MJSCGNNs） is considered. A novel LMI-based stability criterion is obtained by constructing a new Lyapunov functional to guarantee the asymptotic stability of MJSCGNNs. Our results can be easily verified and they are also less restrictive than previously known criteria and can be applied to Cohen-Grossberg neural networks, recurrent neural networks, and cellular neural networks. Finally, the proposed stability conditions are demonstrated with numerical examples.

Stability Analysis for Recurrent Neural Networks with Time-varying Delay

This paper is concerned with the stability analysis for static recurrent neural networks （RNNs） with time-varying delay. By Lyapunov functional method and linear matrix inequality technique, some new delay-dependent conditions are established to ensure the asymptotic stability of the neural network. Expressed in linear matrix inequalities （LMIs）, the proposed delay-dependent stability conditions can be checked using the recently developed algorithms. A numerical example is given to show that the obtained conditions can provide less conservative results than some existing ones.
