This paper presents the dynamics of mosquitoes and humans with general nonlinear incidence rate and multiple distributed delays for the disease. The model is a SEIRS system of delay differential equations. The normalized dimensionless version is derived; analytical techniques are applied to find conditions for deterministic extinction and permanence of disease. The BRN  R0* and  ESPR E(e–(μvT1+μT2)) are computed. Conditions for deterministic extinction and permanence are expressed in terms of R0* and E(e–(μvT1+μT2)) and applied to a P. vivax malaria scenario. Numerical results are given.

The paper is concerned with the effect of a nonlinear incidence rate Sp Iq on dynamical behaviors of a parasite-host model. It is shown that the global attractor of the parasite-host model is an equilibrium if q = 1, which is similar to that of the parasite-host model with a nonlinear incidence rate of the fractional function [Formula: see text]. However, when q is greater than one, more positive equilibria appear and limit cycles arise from Hopf bifurcations at the positive equilibria for the model with the incidence rate Sp Iq. It reveals that the nonlinear incidence rate of the exponential function Sp Iq for generic p and q can lead to more complicated and richer dynamics than the bilinear incidence rate or the fractional incidence rate for this model.

In this paper, we investigate a class of multi-group epidemic models allowing heterogeneity of the host population and that has taken into consideration with general relapse distribution and nonlinear incidence rate. We establish that the global dynamics are completely determined by the basic reproduction number R0. The proofs of the main results utilize the persistence theory in dynamical systems, Lyapunov functionals and a subtle grouping technique in estimating the derivatives of Lyapunov functionals guided by graph-theoretical approach. Biologically, the disease (with any initial inoculation) will persist in all groups of the population and will eventually settle at a constant level in each group. Furthermore, our results demonstrate that heterogeneity and nonlinear incidence rate do not alter the dynamical behaviors of the basic SIR model. On the other hand, the global dynamics exclude the existence of Hopf bifurcation leading to sustained oscillatory solutions.

This paper treats the dynamical behavior of eco-epidemiological model with nonlinear incidence rate. A Holling type II prey-predator model withSI-type of disease in prey has been proposed and analyzed. The existence, uniqueness, and boundedness of the solution of the system are studied. The local and global dynamical behaviors are investigated. The conditions, which guarantee the occurring of Hopf bifurcation of the system, are established. Finally, further investigations for the global dynamics of the proposed system are carried out with the help of numerical simulations.
