A deterministic model was formulated to quantify the transmission dynamics of the disease under isolation and treatment of the isolated asymptomatic and symptomatic humans for effective management and possible elimination of the disease. The solutions of the model were shown to be positive and bounded. Equilibrium analysis was conducted and both the disease-free and the endemic equilibria were derived. The threshold quantity for disease elimination , $R_{0}$ , was also obtained and used to derive conditions for the existence of stability of the eqilibria. The quantity was also employed to examine the sensitivity of the model parameters to disease propagation and reduction. The theoretical analysis was then complemented with the quantitative analysis by adopting a set of realistic values for the model parameters in order to show the effect of isolation and treatment on the spread and fatality of Lassa fever. Results from the quantitative study showed that death and infection from Lassa fever fell continuously as more and more exposed individuals were detected and isolated for treatment. The study therefore suggested that any measure taken to eradicate or curtail Lassa fever spread should include detection and isolation of the exposed humans for prompt treatments.","PeriodicalId":45776,"journal":{"name":"Tamkang Journal of Mathematics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-03-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79241851","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Many examples of biconservative hypersurfaces have constant mean curvature. A famous conjecture of Bang-Yen Chen on Euclidean spaces says that everybiharmonic submanifold has null mean curvature. Inspired by Chen conjecture, we study biconservative Lorentz submanifolds of the Minkowski spaces. Although the conjecture has not been generally confirmed, it has been proven in many cases, and this has led to its spread to various types of submenifolds. As an extension, we consider a advanced version of the conjecture (namely, $L_1$-conjecture) on Lorentz hypersurfaces of the pseudo-Euclidean space $mathbb{M}^5 :=mathbb{E}^5_1$ (i.e. the Minkowski 5-space). We show every $L_1$-biconservative Lorentz hypersurface of $mathbb{M}^5$ with constant mean curvature and at least three principal curvatures has constant second mean curvature.","PeriodicalId":45776,"journal":{"name":"Tamkang Journal of Mathematics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2022-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81755974","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The solution of the problem exhibits parabolic boundary layer on both sides of the spatial domain and interior layer is also created. Introducing a fitting parameter into asymptotic solution and applying average finite difference approximation, a fitted operator finite difference method is developed for solving the problem under consideration. To treat the non-local boundary condition, Simpson's rule is applied. The stability and $varepsilon$ uniform convergence analysis has been carried out. To validate the applicability of the scheme, numerical examples are presented and solved for different values of the perturbation parameter $varepsilon$ and mesh sizes. The numerical results are tabulated in terms of maximum absolute errors and rate of convergence and it is observed that the present method is more accurate and shown to be second order Uniformly convergent in both direction, and it also improves the results of the methods existing in the literature.","PeriodicalId":45776,"journal":{"name":"Tamkang Journal of Mathematics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2022-10-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81124628","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
