Global dynamics of a periodic SEIRS model with general incidence rate

Abstract

We consider a family of periodic SEIRS epidemic models with a fairly general incidence rate and it is shown the basic reproduction number determines the global dynamics of the models and it is a threshold parameter for persistence. Numerical simulations are per- formed to estimate the basic reproduction number and illustrate our analytical findings, using a nonlinear incidence rate.
