Abstract
Existing studies have shown that asymptomatic cases might be related to short-term immunity on a timescale of weeks to months, which could have a significant impact on cholera epidemic transmission. In this paper, we are concerned with the global dynamical behavior of a cholera model with temporary immunity, which is characterized by discrete delay. The basic reproduction number of the model and the existence of each of feasible equilibria are studied. By using an iteration technique and comparison argument, sufficient conditions are obtained for the global attractivity of the endemic equilibrium.
期刊介绍:
The purpose of Applied Mathematics Letters is to provide a means of rapid publication for important but brief applied mathematical papers. The brief descriptions of any work involving a novel application or utilization of mathematics, or a development in the methodology of applied mathematics is a potential contribution for this journal. This journal''s focus is on applied mathematics topics based on differential equations and linear algebra. Priority will be given to submissions that are likely to appeal to a wide audience.
