How delay, isolation and vaccination shape epidemic waves: a bifurcation approach in mathematical epidemiology
摘要
This research paper introduces an SQIR-V epidemic model to investigate the transmission of infectious diseases. Particular attention is paid to the roles of vaccination and quarantine (incorporating physical distancing interventions) in protecting susceptible individuals. The model features nonlinear transition rates that depend on the history of infection, allowing the emergence of periodic solutions. We calculate the basic reproduction number,
