报告摘要：How to prevent and control mosquito-borne diseases, such as malaria, dengue fever and Zika, is still an urgent worldwide public health problem. The most conventional method for the control of these diseases is to directly kill mosquitoes by spraying insecticides or removing their breeding sites. However, the traditional method is not effective enough to keep the mosquito density below the epidemic risk threshold. With promising results internationally, the World Mosquito Program's Wolbachia method is helping to reduce the occurrence of diseases transmitted by mosquitoes. In this talk, I will introduce a periodic discrete model to study the dynamics of Wolbachia infection frequency in mosquito populations where infected mosquitoes are impulsively released. This model has three notable characteristics: first, it covers all relevant existing models since 1959 as special cases; second, it develops with the development of experiments and mosquito factories; and finally, it presents us with a number of unresolved problems. This is a joint work with Professors Jia Li and Bo Zheng.
