Traveling Waves in a SIRH Model with Spatio-Temporal Delay and Nonlocal Dispersal.

Abstract

This paper deals mainly with the existence and asymptotic behavior of traveling waves in a SIRH model with spatio-temporal delay and nonlocal dispersal based on Schauder’s fixed-point theorem and analysis techniques, which generalize the results of nonlocal SIRH models without relapse and delay. In particular, the difficulty of obtaining the asymptotic behavior of traveling waves for the appearance of spatio-temporal delay is overcome by the use of integral techniques and analysis techniques. Finally, the more general nonexistence result of traveling waves is also included.Electronic Supplementary MaterialSupplementary material is available in the online version of this article at 10.1007/s10473-022-0218-5
