内容介绍:A disease transmission model of SEIRS type with distributed delays in latent and  temporary immune periods is discussed. With general/particular probability  distributions in both of these periods, we address the threshold property of the  basic reproduction number R0 and the dynamical properties of the  disease-free/endemic equilibrium points present in the model. More speci?cally,  we 1). show the dependence of R0 on the probability distribution in the latent  period and the independence of R0 from the distribution of the temporary  immunity, 2). prove that the disease-free equilibrium is always globally  asymptotically stable when R0 < 1, and 3). according to the choice of  probability functions in the latent and temporary immune periods, establish that  the disease always persists when R0 > 1 and an endemic equilibrium exists  with di?erent stability properties. In particular, the endemic steady state is  at least locally asymptotically stable if the probability distribution in the  temporary immunity is a decreasing exponential function when the duration of the  latency stage is ?xed or exponentially decreasing. It may become oscillatory  under certain conditions when there exists a constant delay in the temporary  immunity period. Numerical simulations are given to verify the theoretical  predictions.
