A Stochastic Differential Equation SIS Epidemic Model

Abstract: In this paper we extend the classical SIS epidemic model from a deterministic framework to a stochastic one, and formulate it as a stochastic differential equation (SDE) for the number of infectious individuals I(t). We then prove that this SDE has a unique global positive solution I(t) and establish conditions for extinction and persistence of I(t). We discuss perturbation by stochastic noise. In the case of persistence we show the existence of a stationary distribution and derive expressions for its mean and… Show more

“…In relation to the theme of this paper, we particularly want to note the paper [6] which proves a stability result allowing for R 0 to exceed the value 1. The current paper makes a useful contribution to understanding the disease-free equilibrium of the given sde model of an SEIR disease.…”

“…There are models in which the transmission rate from susceptible to infected is perturbed such as in the Refs. [6,16,20] and others. We propose a model in which stochasticity is directly imposed on all the classes other than the class of susceptibles.…”

“…The parameters β, α, λ are all nonnegative constants and Λ, µ are positive constants. Recently, authors of [4,6,21] have done much research and have obtained plenty of significant conclusions for system (1.1). They set up the threshold condition R * , which determines disease extinction or permanence under stochastic perturbation, where…”
