Global dynamics of an age-structured malaria model with prevention

TLDR
A new age-structured malaria model is formulated, which incorporates the age of prevention period of susceptible people, theAge of latent period of human and the age-of-latent period of female Anopheles mosquitoes, and it is shown that there exists a compact global attractor.
Abstract
In this paper, we formulate a new age-structured malaria model, which incorporates the age of prevention period of susceptible people, the age of latent period of human and the age of latent period of female Anopheles mosquitoes. We show that there exists a compact global attractor and obtain a sufficient condition for uniform persistence of the solution semiflow. We obtain the basic reproduction number R₀ and show that R₀ completely determines the global dynamics of the model, that is, if R₀ 1, there exists a unique endemic equilibrium that attracts all solutions for which malaria transmission occurs. Finally, we perform some numerical simulations to illustrate our theoretical results and give a brief discussion.

Persistence in infinite-dimensional systems

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the persistence of a population dynamics model in the setting of a $C^0 $-semigroup which is asymptotically smooth, and provided conditions on the flow on the boundary which, given the presence of a global attractor provided by the assumption of dissipativeness, are necessary and sufficient for persistence.

Global attractors and steady states for uniformly persistent dynamical systems

TL;DR: By appealing to the theory of global attractors on complete metric spaces, this work obtains weaker sufficient conditions for the existence of interior global attractor for uniformly persistent dynamical systems, and hence generalize the earlier results on coexistence steady states.

Dynamical Systems and Population Persistence

TL;DR: The mathematical theory of persistence answers questions such as which species, in a mathematical model of interacting species, will survive over the long term as mentioned in this paper, and applies to infinite-dimensional as well as to finite-dimensional dynamical systems.
