A deterministic model for an SIR epidemic with silent infections is investigated. It is shown for the model studied that the extent to which silent infections are present may be determined from data concerning only those individuals with symptomatic infection.

Traveling waves are analyzed in a model of the hantavirus infection in deer mice. The existence of two kinds of wave phenomena is predicted. An environmental parameter governs a transition between two regimes of propagation. In one of them the front of infection lags behind at a constant rate. In th

In this paper, non-autonomous SIRS epidemic models with bilinear incidence and disease-induced mortality are studied. Under the quite weak assumptions, the sufficient and necessary conditions on the permanence and strong persistence of the disease and the sufficient condition on the extinction of th
