It can be even unbounded but x(t)/|x(t)| is quasi-periodic,like a helical line. for example x(t)=e^(at)(cos ωt, sin ωt), when Q is not an orthogonal matrix. The averaging method of higher order for finding affine-periodic solutions is given by topological degree.展开更多

It is shown that for Hs(T) initial data with 8 〉 -1/2 and for any s 〈 s1〈 min{s + 1,3s + 1}, the difference of the evolution with the linear evolution is in Hs1 (T) for all times, with at most polynomial growing HS1 norm. Unlike Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation, there are less symmetries of the Benjamin system, especially for the resonant function. The new ingredient is that we need to deal with some new difficulties that are caused by the lack of symmetries.展开更多

We determine a basic reproduction number R0 which is chosen based on the relative ODE model, and establish that the global dynamics are determined by the threshold value R0. If R0 〈 1, then the infection-free equilibrium is global asymptotically stable, that is, the cholera dies out; If R0 〉 1, then the unique endemic equilibrium is global asymptotically stable, which means that the infection persists. The results obtained show that the delay does not lead to periodic oscillations. Finally, some numerical simulations support our theoretical results.展开更多
