报告摘要: There are many challenges to quantifying and evaluating the impact of spatial and temporal heterogeneity on infectious diseases transmission dynamics. In this talk, we initially proposed a delay differential model, associated with the response time for mass media to cover the current infection and for individuals’ behavior changes to media coverage. With two time delays, we comprehensively investigated the local and global bifurcation by considering the summation of delays as a bifurcation parameter. Main results show that either the media described feedback cycle, from infection to the level of mass media and back to disease incidence, or time delays can induce Hopf bifurcation and result in periodic oscillations. The indicates that the delayed media impact leads to a richer dynamics that may significantly affect the disease infections. We then proposed a SEIRS-type reaction-diffusion model to examine the spatial heterogeneity and obtained the basic reproduction number (R0), which is connected with the principal eigenvalue of a linear cooperative elliptic system. Threshold-type results on the global dynamics in terms of R0 are established. The monotonicity of R0 with respect to the diffusion rates of the exposed and infected individuals is established in several cases. This is joint work Dr Pengfei Song, Prof Yuan Lou, Prof Changcheng Xiang and etc.
