apply the next-generator operator concept to the analysis of nondisease free equilibrium points in multigroup models in infectious diseases. In particular, we apply our results to the analysis of the local stability of a multigroup SEIR model.
Spatial heterogeneity is believed to play an important role in the persistence and dynamics of epidemics of childhood diseases because asynchrony between populations within different regions allows global persistence, even if the disease dies out locally. A simple multi-patch (metapopulation) model
In this paper, we investigate a class of multi-group vaccination epidemic models with delays. We show that the global dynamics are determined by the threshold criterion Ο (A). We present that when Ο (A) < 0, there is a unique disease-free equilibrium which is globally asymptotically stable; when Ο (
